[Intro]
[Verse 1]
--- ATHENA, (ODYSSEUS) ---
You were reck
less, sentimen
tal at best
That's not a
teaching of mi
ne
You’ve grown
soft, your dea
d friends can
attest (Hey)
Put your emot
ions aside
You're a warr
ior meant to l
ead the rest
I don't know w
here I went wr
ong
But I warned
you, and you f
ailed the test
So now I’m go
ne
[Chorus 1]
--- ATHENA ---
This way, you'
ll know what y
our place is
This way, you
can't cross th
e line
This way, when
all is over
You'll keep yo
urs and I'll k
eep mine
This way, you
won't disappoi
nt me
This way, you
won't waste my
time
This way, I'll
close the doo
r
Consider this
as my goodbye
[Verse 2]
--- ODYSSEUS ---
That’s just l
ike you, why s
hould I be sur
prised?
Selfish and pr
ideful and vai
n
Unlike you, ev
ery time someo
ne dies
I’m left to de
al with the st
rain
What's a title
that a goddes
s could lend
If I’ll never
sleep at night
?
I'll remind yo
u I saw you as
a friend
N.C.
But now we're done
[Chorus 2]
--- ODYSSEUS ---
This way, you'
re out of my h
ead now
This way, you
won’t plague m
y life
This way, when
all is done
You're out of
sight and out
of mind
This way, you
get what you w
anted
This way, you
can save your
time
This way, you
close the door
and
Have your damn
goodbye
[Bridge]
--- ATHENA, (ODYSSEUS) ---
You're not loo
king for a men
tor
I'm not lookin
g for a friend
I mistook you
for a general
What a waste o
f effort spent
(At least I kn
ow what I'm fi
ghting for)
(While you're
fighting to be
known)
(Since you cla
im you're so m
uch wiser)
(Why's your li
fe spent all a
lone?)
(You're alone!
)
[Chorus 3]
--- ATHENA, (ENSEMBLE) ---
One day, you'l
l hear what I'
m saying
One day, you m
ight understan
d
One day, but n
ot today,
For after all
you're Just a
man
This day, you
sever your own
head
This day, you
cut the line
This day, you
lost it all
Consider this
as my goodbye
(Ohhhhhh) Cons
ider this as m
y goodbye
(Ohhhhhh) This
is my goodbye
(Ohhhhhh) Cons
ider this as m
y goodbye
(Ohhhhhh) This
is my goodbye
[Outro]
