Harry Nilsson & Joe Fagin – ULYSSES PRAYER Lyrics

Artist: Harry Nilsson & Joe Fagin
Song: ULYSSES PRAYER

〈ULYSSES〉
I am not one
Who would run for cheap advise
I’ve never sought divine assistance

The end is never worth the price
But this time
We dance to a different tune
That neithers should play

Caught by madness
Like friends, like fools
Shouting words
None of us should say

Ah, but I can recognize failure
I can stare it in the face
I know when the game is over
And when to vanish

Without a trace
Vengeance
Glory
Wеalth

And power
Count for nothing now
Just life
Or death

In this final hour
Is all thе gods allow
I’ve never been
One to beg or plead

I’ve never believed in magic
When my wits
My courage are all i’ve needed, but
Athena, if you’re really there

Answer this mortal’s prayer
Let passion rule for the lovers
And the fools
When victory is earned by a different rule

This prayer’s for the living
This tears for deads
I pledge my life, my soul
I give you my whole

My heart
And my head
This war is a tragic folly
We must ended it, so now

Help me, goddess
I cannot how
But do it
I’m doing it now

〈MENELAUS〉
Nothing short of death
Will keep me away
Each and every living Trojan

Will rule this day
Let all their descendance
Cry out for vengeance
For the gods above

Witness to all I say
〈ULYSSES〉
So fellow warriors
Our last stand

The goddess Athena
Has shown the end
This monumental wisdom
And a treachery of men

Is hollow inside
And I have a plan
I know I’ll be punished
And driven to despair

But desperate times
Need desperate men
So Athena, do your worst
I don’t care

I’ve lost sight of order
Or just what must be done
With no cause to rejoice
We have no choice

This was must be won
When anger and passion trap us
I should have known
From the start

There is no doubt
The only way out
Is a head without a heart
