the Songtext
I want to get away from where I′m from
I want to retire in Elysium
I want to see the fires burning my eardrum
I want to hear the flyers too close to the sun
I want to get away from where I'm from
I want to fight with someone Herculean
I want to dance with Dionysus, then drink some
I want to deal with Plutus to get out of this slum
I met the oracle at delphi about this, she said
"There′s something about the gods you clearly have missed, let me tell you"
"The one and only feeling of
Evidence for the Gods above
Is not a prayer but a lack thereof
Not a script or something simple like that
It's when your left, totally bereft
Hoping for love"
I can't see the gods up Mount Olympus
And I can′t beat the odds shaking my fists
At the lazy bunch of losers up there who seem insist
That I learn each lesson the hard way as long as I exist
I can′t see the gods up Mount Olympus
And I don't deserve to be completely dismissed
I work 15 hours a day with my stomach in a twist
I′ve got nothing but devotion, I demand just one kiss
I've spoke at length to friends and family about this, they say
"There′s something about the gods you clearly have missed, let us tell you"
"The one and only feeling of
Evidence for the Gods above
Is not a prayer but a lack thereof
Not a script or something simple like that
It's when your left, totally bereft
Hoping for love"
I tried my best to let the lesson sink in
I washed myself of my anger and sins
I admitted I was whining, much to my chagrin
I think I′m ready to let myself end so I can begin
I tried my best to let the lesson sink in
But the lesson was vague and the concept was thin
What does love even mean? I can't help but grin
I think everybody is crazy, or maybe just lying
I took some time to pray to almighty Zeus about this, he boomed
"Yeah, loneliness and hope sure sounds like eternal bliss, you imbecile"
"The one and only feeling of
Evidence for the Gods above
Is not a prayer but a lack thereof
Not a script or something simple like that
It's when your left, totally bereft
Hoping for love"
