Sirens Song
Hear my song of pain and despair
That Lead you to my shore
If you continue your journey
The ship will nearly wreck
Where past lovers have lost
Their fight in my war
No man has made it through
No stories have been told
Yet you cannot resist the sound
That echos in your mind
Makes you sleepless in the night
Many have tried and gave up the fight
Only Odysseus has athena on his side
A wise man he was to stray from the trail
For i am no less sad than sweet
Leaving the taste of bitter on your teeth
Be warned on your deathbed ill have you sleep
A forever was promised
But here i am alone to weep
My throne stands empty
Forever was just words
No wise man seeks
These are the tales of the wives
who do not speak
