Camie - Odysseus

Once I sailed the Rhine in the rain, Valley wailing my name
Open wide like a throat
To the old city square, swore I saw angels there
'Till the time bid me go

And they asked me who I love tonight
I said no one and, no, I don't mind
And they asked me, Odysseus, why?

I long to follow every sky
To see the old smoke rise
To return to my homeland and die

Cold, alone, in the rain; overall, can't complain
As the winter lights go on their glistening
Drunk with devils in green in an Austrian dream
And the orchestra screams

It's a siren-led symphony
And the oboe has hypnotized me
And I'll drown in her melodies

Oh, and the New Year's bells ring clean
I say I'm free, but I lie
I'll return to my homeland and die

And the cities are loveless, I'm lost in the light
And my body's a hellscape, but Virgil's my guide

And the world's got me dizzy
And the mountains are fiction free
And I heard a voice screaming out at the sea
But I realized it was just me

Odysseus, what would you like?
For I'm lost tonight
I'll return to my homeland alive
