Even Gods Cry

歌詞

Looking over Mount Olympus Revenge is in my soul A mere misunderstood victim With no one and nowhere else to go Now I'm headed for the mountain peak Destined to stop this losing streak Destroying all that's in my path My face is ashen, I need a bath They used to call me captain I'm no stranger to Spartan Laws But merely following orders Only added to my flaws Like a hobo on a holiday I haven't got a home Like a parrot on a tricycle I'm feeling so alone I'm crying on the inside For that which I once had Folks don't see me for who I really am The God of Sad These blades say stay away If you want to know what's best A chip put on my shoulder And my anger to the test Cuz I'm one vicious mama-jama It's known around the hood I killed my very own flesh and blood Oh, that Ares bitch punked me good I'm hulking out big time And my rage I'll freely vent To Hades with serenity And anger management Killing is no sport for me It's long since lost it's thrill But when I check my to-do list It says, pick up eggs and kill There's a secret to my happiness Tucked inside that box But need I look inside myself To open up, let my cheer unlock Zeus he was my father But no joy did that bring Never taught me to grow or ride a bike We had a cats in the cradle thing In my mind's eye I laid down my sword I'm a killer but more than that I can sing of love and sunshine days Betcha didn't know that I could Scat I had no friends, alone am I A testament that even Gods can cry You mortals no not the toll it takes To be the God of War It's nothing your high school guidance counselor Would ever steer you toward Blood is all I've known in life My violence knows no low Even as I write this song I'm drinking wine from a human skull All this carnage I have wrought It's no good for my image Sometimes I'll just slay a goat Merely for a scrimmage You don't want to cheese me off Or think you can oppose me I'll rip your head off with my hands How's that for a trophy? So I ride to face my destiny To claim that which is mine And yes I'm riding a Unicorn It was the only thing I could find I've lost track of why I kill It's just something that I do I should get in touch with my inner child But I'd probably just kill him too Zeus, almighty Zeus I call upon you for an answer Why must I be forced to kill? I really wanted to be a dancer Father I beg of you Take me for all I'm worth These sex games are not who I am They bring merely superficial worth Being an angel of death is hard Not a life that most would pick Sure it gets me lots of tail But that gets old surprisingly quick Thinking maybe I'll get a cat To show my softer side That could work but failing that I'll bludgeon my P.R. guide Sometimes I feel that life's a game And I'm a character being played With multiple levels, power-ups And unlockable Easter Eggs If I should come across you And kill you 'til you're dead Please don't take it personally It's just, there's a circle above your head Oracle please show me the way To get where I want to go Spin gold from this bale of hay And get me my own reality show For me killing's the only way And death my only drug But even a man who's bathed in blood Sometimes needs love
