S O N G S - Achilles Come Down
Achilles
Achilles come down, won't you
Get up off
Get up off the roof?
☼
You're scaring us
And all of us
Some of us love you
Achilles, it's not much but there's proof
☼
You crazy assed cosmonaut
Remember your virtue
Redemption lies plainly in truth
Just humour us
☼
Achilles
Achilles come down
Won't you get up off
Get up off the roof
☼
Achilles
Achilles
Achilles come down, won't you
Get up off
Get up off the roof?
☼
The self is not so weightless
Nor whole and unbroken
Remember the pact of our youth
Where you go, I'm going
So jump and I'm jumping
Since there is no me without you
Soldier on
☼
Achilles
Achilles come down
Won't you get up off
Get up off the roof?
☼
Loathe the way they light candles in Rome
But love the sweet air of the votives
Hurt and grieve but don't suffer alone
Engage with the pain as a motive
Today of all days
See
How the most dangerous thing is to love
How you will heal and you'll rise above
☼
Achilles
Achilles
Achilles
Jump now
You are absent of cause
Or excuse
So self-indulgent
And self-referential
No audience could ever want you
You crave the applause
Yet hate the attention
Then miss it, your act is a ruse
☼
It is empty, Achilles
So end it all now
It's a pointless resistance
For you
☼
Achilles
Achilles
Just put down the bottle
Don't listen to what you've consumed
It's chaos, confusion
And wholly unworthy
Of feeding and it's wholly untrue
You may feel no purpose
Nor a point for existing
It's all just conjecture and gloom
And there may not be meaning
So find one and seize it
Do not waste your self on this roof
Hear those bells ring deep in the soul
Chiming away for a moment
Feel your breath course frankly below
See life as a worthy opponent
Today of all days
See
How the most dangerous thing is to love
How you will heal and you'll rise above
Crowned by an overture bold and beyond
Ah, it's more courageous to overcome
☼
You want the acclaim
The mother of mothers (it's not worth it Achilles)
More poignant than fame
Or the taste of another (don't listen Achilles)
But be real and just jump
You dense motherfucker (you're worth more, Achilles)
You will not be more
Than a rat in the gutter (so much more than a rat)
You want my opinion (no one asked your opinion)
My opinion you've got
You asked for my counsel (no one asked for your thoughts)
I gave you my thoughts
Be done with this now
And jump off the roof
Can you hear me Achilles?
I'm talking to you
I'm talking to you
I'm talking to you
I'm talking to you
☼
Achilles come down
Achilles come down
Throw yourself into the unknown
With pace and a fury defiant
Clothe yourself in beauty untold
And see life as a means to a triumph
Today of all days
See
How the most dangerous thing is to love
How you will heal and you'll rise above
Crowned by an overture bold and beyond
Ah, it's more courageous to overcome

War of Hearts
In the night hours
I will wait for you
And I can't sleep
'Cause thoughts devour
Thoughts of you consume
☼
I can't help but love you
Even though I try not to
I can't help but want you
I know that I'd die without you
☼
Stay with me
A little longer
I will wait for you
Shadows creep
And want grows stronger
Deeper than the truth
☼
I can't help but love you
Even though I try not to
I can't help but want you
I know that I'd die without you
☼
I can't help but be wrong in the dark
'Cause I'm overcome in this war of hearts
I can't help but want oceans to part
'Cause I'm overcome in this war of hearts
☼
I can't help but love you
Even though I try not to
I can't help but want you
I know that I'd die without you
☼
I can't help but be wrong in the dark
'Cause I'm overcome in this war of hearts
I can't help but want oceans to part
'Cause I'm overcome in this war of hearts

Soldier
Head down 'til the work is done
Waiting on that morning sun
Soldier keep on marchin' on
☼
Head in the dust, feet in the fire
Labour on that midnight wire
Listening for that angel choir
You got nowhere to run
☼
You wanna take a drink of that promise land
You gotta wipe the dirt off of your hands
Careful son, you got dreamer's plans
But it gets hard to stand
☼
Soldier keep on marchin' on
Head down 'til the work is done
Waiting on that morning sun
Soldier keep on marchin' on
☼
Quiet now, you're gonna wake the beast
Hide your soul out of his reach
Shiver to that broken beat
Dark into the heat

Two Men in Love
Will you be my prince
Will you lay down your armour
And be with me forever
When you open me
All the power in me moves
How you want to see
All the depths of me real
When you open me
All the power in me moves
I feel real
☼
I love you
Love you
I love you
Love you
☼
When I look into your eyes
There's a danger inside
When I see the edge
I can never hide
☼
See me running, running, running, running, running
Running, running, running, running, running
Running, running, running, running, running
To you, from you, to you
☼

It's getting louder and louder and louder and louder and louder and louder
There's a danger I can't hide
Who I am, it's who I am, it's who I am, it's who I am

And the World was Gone
But I blinked and the world was gone
You wade through the water
Slowly your hands grow numb
I wish you felt me falling
I wish you'd watched over me
You said you'd wait forever but I blink
And the world was gone
And the world was gone
And the world was gone
☼
I run through your head
Loud with a nightmare
Brushing your skin with my breathing
Turn out the light
And every nightlight
Run you can run you can run
I blink and the world was gone
I blink and the world was gone
I blink and the world was gone
You said you'd wait forever but I blinked
And the world was gone
You wade through the water
Slowly your hands grow numb
I wish you felt me falling
I wish you'd watch over me
You said you'd wait forever
But I blink and the world was gone
And the world was gone
And the world was gone

Dancing After Death
You're a word that I can't forget
Though the thought rattles my brain
Will you fold, or will you remain?
☼
If I don't get better than this man in my skin
If I don't get better than this man in my skin
☼
If I let go, would you hold on? Would we fly?
Is it safer if we just say that we tried?
Are we laughing at the danger?
Are we dancing after death, you and I?
☼
As the sun waits to eclipse
And the taste teases my lips
I'm too tired to wrestle with it
Will we burn, or will we repent?
☼
If I don't get better than this man in my skin
If I don't get better than this man in my skin
☼
If I let go, would you hold on? Would we fly?
Is it safer if we just say that we tried?
Are we laughing at the danger?
Are we dancing after death, you and I?
☼
If I let go, would you hold on? Would we fly?
Is it safer if we just say that we tried?
Are we laughing at the danger?
Are we dancing after death?
☼
Are we laughing at the danger?
Are we dancing after death, you and I?
