Achilles

Achilles can be wise or dumb, But still his heart was strong and numb. His fallen soldiers and fallen maidens; Shall reach and inherit the Land of Eden. A strong and brave, O' dying god; Strike your arrows not to this lad. Aim not his heart or not his heart, Cause you’ll just stumble and spill your art. A wooden horse was destined to enter; This high castles, it became its shelter. But it was also destined to live in fire; Burn! And reach the end of the wire. We are all destined to live and die, And we have no choice but to laugh and cry. No one can live as a human immortal; Thus let our legacy live, like Achilles and his fatal.
