Echoes of Ilion - The Song of Alexander Lyrics



Echoes of Ilion - The Song of Alexander Lyrics




Once I could see I could feel and believe
Once I could shine I could make the world mine

I strip off my shirt and feel the sun burn my back and walk naked to the shrine of Priam
I fall to my knees and eat the dirt and grovel and beg to remember who I am

Whisper to me father, soothe my trembling tortured breath
I've never needed you more than this, tell me, am I the new Achilles?

Now I'm so blind, got inflammation of the mind
I squint and I bleed but there's no one left for me

I'm a Macedon, a mastodon, an ubermench, a psychic healer
They say I'm mad they scream I'm bad, but I need you all to be believers

Whisper to me father, soothe my trembling tortured breath
I've never needed you more than this, tell me, am I the new Achilles?

Whisper to me father, soothe my trembling tortured breath
I've never needed you more than this, tell me, am I the new Achilles?
Whisper to me mother, stroke my sweating, aching brow
I never felt love as great as yours, am I still your own Achilles?
