Sirens - Attalus

Here come the sirens charming and sweet

Saying «I got, I got, I got everything you need.»

Hungry as lions primed for the feast

Beauty at times is just a side of the beast

Beauty at times is just a lie

Voices of culture charming and sweet

Saying «I got, I got, I got something good to eat.»

Gather as vultures ready to feed

And before you know you’re being swallowed up by greed

Before you know you’re being swallowed

Don’t get their song stuck in your head

Don’t let them lure you into bed

Don’t heed the song of the sirens you’re gonna wind up dead

They’re just devils in disguise

Hell’s sick mirage of paradise

Don’t lift your eyes to the sirens — one look could take your life

Can you feel them?

Breathing down upon your neck

Their shadows fall upon the deck

They’re fantasies that haven’t yet turned into nightmares

I know their way seems so sublime

I know their rivers run with wine

But in the end you’re gonna find there is no light there

Oh they’re breathing down upon your neck

Their shadows fall upon the deck

Like fantasies that haven’t yet turned into nightmares

I know their way seems so sublime

I know their rivers run with wine

But in the end you’re gonna find it’s all a lie

Be not betrayed by their cries lest you be dragged to the depths

Don’t let them feed you a lie

Don’t let them feed on your flesh

Don’t get their song stuck in your head

Don’t let them lure you into bed

Don’t heed the song of the sirens you’re gonna wind up dead

They’re just devils in disguise

Hell’s sick mirage of paradise

Don’t lift your eyes to the sirens — one look could take your life

Can you feel them?

Breathing down upon your neck

Their shadows fall upon the deck

They’re fantasies that haven’t yet turned into nightmares

I know their way seems so sublime

I know their rivers run with wine

But in the end you’re gonna find there is no light there

Oh they’re breathing down upon your neck

Their shadows fall upon the deck

Like fantasies that haven’t yet turned into nightmares

I know their way seems so sublime

I know their rivers run with wine

But in the end you’re gonna find it’s all a lie
