Achilles

Friend your life grows short With every breath that you take Your heart is a ticking clock Brings you closer to your fate What I want is not important to the gods Days I sit and wait The nights I lie awake Promise that you won't stop singing songs to me Achilles And promise that you'll keep on fighting you're so strong for me Achilles Promise that you'll keep on coming home to me Achilles Walking through the door covered in honesty Waiting here for you at the edge of the shore I've never liked you less never wanted you more Telling me it's all in the name of the war What you were born to do I was born for you Love stronger than you stronger even than your pride Put your armour on and bravely send me out to die What I want is not important to the gods My death was not in vain And yet you hold me close all night Promise that you won't stop singing songs to me Achilles Promise that you'll keep on fighting you're so strong for me Achilles Promise that you'll keep on coming home to me Achilles Walking through the door covered in honesty Waiting here for you at the edge of the shore I've never liked you less never wanted you more Telling me it's all in the name of the war What you were born to do I was born for you I wander helpless I am only thought and air I wonder where you are are you waiting for me there And I've been asking everyone but no one seems to care I long to hear your voice see the color of your hair Promise that you won't stop singing songs to me And promise that you'll keep on fighting you're so strong for me Promise that you'll keep on coming home to me Walking through the door covered in honesty Waiting here for you at the edge of the shore I've never liked you less never wanted you more Telling me it's all in the name of the war What you were born to do I was born for you Waiting here for you at the edge of the shore I've never liked you less never wanted you more Telling me it's all in the name of the war What you were born to do I was born for you Waiting here for you at the edge of the shore Telling me it's all in the name of the war
