Achilles

If I'm Achilles Walking in a straight line And you're the only Blade left on earth eventually Invincibility Is bound to reconcile with time And as we fall in love You're bound to kill me There's something sickly sweet About inevitability She sings you off to sleep Then slits your throat to close a rhyme And to exclude the lucky few Who's paths run parallel The collision course Begins without a sign So close your eyes For me darlin' Tell me that you love me So I know I've seen the light If you're mine By the morning I'll forgive you when you tell me It's my time Always knew I couldn't have someone so real But how was I to know you'd be my Achilles heel Will you remember me As years go by And though it hurts you I hope you learn to smile And though I hate you just a bit For what you did to me I'm glad to know that I'm Your only casualty So close your eyes For me darlin' Tell me that you love me So I know I've seen the light If you're mine By the morning I'll forgive you when you tell me It's my time Always knew I couldn't have someone so real But how was I to know I was Achilles Star crossed Too good to be true As I fell hard for you I lost my chance at time My world redefined You in it Knew I couldn't win So I gave up my life So tell them of Achilles walking in a straight line And how you loved her Just enough to guarantee That invincibility Would come to reconcile with time And as we fell in love I guess you killed me
