The Underworld

Friends, Circe's instructions were clear No matter what we hear Full speed ahead Until we find the prophet My comrades, this land confuses your mind So no matter who we find Full speed ahead, until we find the prophet Good All I hear are screams, every time I dare to close my eyes I no longer dream, only nightmares of those who've died Nothing's what it seems Nothing's what it seems And here in the Underworld, the past seems close behind This land confuses your mind When does a man become a monster? Five hundred fifty-eight men who died under your command Captain! Captain! Captain! Captain! Why would you let the cyclops live When ruthlessness is mercy? All I hear are screams, every time I dare to close my eyes I no longer dream, only nightmares of those who've died Nothing's what it seems Nothing's what it seems But in the Underworld, the past seems close behind I keep thinking of the infant from that night I keep thinking of the infant from that night This life is amazing when you greet it with open arms Polites Whatever we face, we'll be fine if we're leading from the heart No matter the place, we can light up the world Here's how to start: Greet the world with open arms Greet the world with open arms Polites Waiting That voice, it can't be Waiting Mom? Waiting Odysseus, when you come home I'll be waiting Even if you're the last thing I see, I'll be waiting I'm right here, mom Can't you see? I'm (waiting) Waiting I took too long I'll always love you And ventured too far I'll stay in your heart While you were Waiting, waiting, waiting Bye mom All I hear are screams (All I hear are screams) Every time I dare to close my eyes I no longer dream (I no longer dream) Only nightmares of those who've died Nothing's what it seems (Nothing's what it seems) But in the Underworld, your past is always close behind Your past is always close behind Down in the Underworld
