Achilles Come Down

[00:08.69] Achilles
[00:09.47] Achilles
[00:10.01] Achilles come down, won't you
[00:12.23] Get up off
[00:13.11] Get up off the roof?
[00:15.51] You're scaring us
[00:16.98] And all of us
[00:17.70] Some of us love you
[00:19.66] Achilles, it's not much but there's proof
[00:22.55] You crazy assed cosmonaut
[00:25.85] Remember your virtue
[00:27.15] Redemption lies plainly in truth
[00:31.48] Just humour us
[00:32.92] Achilles
[00:33.63] Achilles come down
[00:35.43] Won't you get up off
[00:36.98] Get up off the roof
[00:40.05]
[00:46.54]
[00:55.83] Achilles
[00:56.80] Achilles
[00:57.62] Achilles come down, won't you
[01:00.03] Get up off
[01:00.98] Get up off the roof?
[01:02.97] The self is not so weightless
[01:05.55] Nor whole and unbroken
[01:07.99] Remember the pact of our youth
[01:11.33] Where you go
[01:12.98] I'm going
[01:13.76] So jump and I'm jumping
[01:15.65] Since there is no me without you
[01:19.53] Soldier on
[01:20.86] Achilles
[01:21.94] Achilles come down
[01:23.40] Won't you get up off
[01:25.06] Get up off the roof?
[01:27.67] Loathe the way they light candles in Rome
[01:31.41] But love the sweet air of the votives
[01:35.48] Hurt and grieve but don't suffer alone
[01:39.45] Engage with the pain as a motive
[01:43.71] Today of all days
[01:47.63] See
[01:49.51] How the most dangerous thing is to love
[01:58.08] How you will heal and you'll rise above
[02:04.49]
[02:13.99] Achilles
[02:14.99] Achilles
[02:15.99] Achilles
[02:16.52] Jump now
[02:17.53] You are absent of cause
[02:19.38] Or excuse
[02:21.55] So self-indulgent
[02:23.84] And self-referential
[02:25.70] No audience could ever want you
[02:29.39] You crave the applause
[02:31.43] Yet hate the attention
[02:33.58] Then miss it, your act is a ruse
[02:37.35] It is empty, Achilles
[02:39.52] So end it all now
[02:41.41] It's a pointless resistance
[02:43.62] For you
[02:45.97]
[03:01.79] Achilles
[03:02.87] Achilles
[03:03.55] Just put down the bottle
[03:05.54] Don't listen to what you've consumed
[03:09.31] It's chaos, confusion
[03:11.55] And wholly unworthy
[03:13.60] Of feeding and it's wholly untrue
[03:17.68] You may feel no purpose
[03:19.66] Nor a point for existing
[03:21.88] It's all just conjecture and gloom
[03:24.84] And there may not be meaning
[03:27.68] So find one and seize it
[03:29.62] Do not waste your self on this roof
[03:32.85] Hear those bells ring deep in the soul
[03:37.46] Chiming away for a moment
[03:41.11] Feel your breath course frankly below
[03:45.45] See life as a worthy opponent
[03:48.95] Today of all days
[03:53.63] See
[03:55.58] How the most dangerous thing is to love
[04:03.74] How you will heal and you'll rise above
[04:11.89] Crowned by an overture bold and beyond
[04:19.42] Ah, it's more courageous to overcome
[04:25.41]
[04:31.94] You want the acclaim
[04:34.19] The mother of mothers (it's not worth it Achilles)
[04:35.55] More poignant than fame
[04:37.33] Or the taste of another (don't listen Achilles)
[04:39.24] But be real and just jump
[04:41.68] You dense motherfucker (you're worth more, Achilles)
[04:43.65] You will not be more
[04:45.15] Than a rat in the gutter (so much more than a rat)
[04:47.57] You want my opinion (no one asked your opinion)
[04:48.52] My opinion you've got
[04:51.41] You asked for my counsel (no one asked for your thoughts)
[04:53.61] I gave you my thoughts
[04:55.24] Be done with this now
[04:57.66] And jump off the roof
[04:59.42] Can you hear me Achilles?
[05:01.42] I'm talking to you
[05:06.83] I'm talking to you
[05:10.11] I'm talking to you
[05:14.77] I'm talking to you
[05:18.82] Achilles come down
[05:23.33] Achilles come down
[05:31.84]
[06:03.84] Throw yourself into the unknown
[06:07.78] With pace and a fury defiant
[06:11.35] Clothe yourself in beauty untold
[06:15.69] And see life as a means to a triumph
[06:19.34] Today of all days
[06:23.79] See
[06:25.57] How the most dangerous thing is to love
[06:34.18] How you will heal and you'll rise above
[06:41.58] Crowned by an overture bold and beyond
[06:49.80] Ah, it's more courageous to overcome
[06:54.23]
