annapantsu - achilles come down lyrics

[verse 1]
achilles, achilles, achilles, come down
won’t you get up off, get up off the roof?
you’re scaring us and all of us, some of us love you
achilles, it’s not much but there’s proof
you crazy+ass cosmonaut, remember your virtue
redemption lies plainly in truth
just humour us, achilles, achilles, come down
won’t you get up off, get up off the roof?

[sample]
i witness that a lot of people are dying because they consider that life is not worth living. paradoxically, i witness other people who are being k!lled for thеir ideas, their illusions, which give thеir existence a sense. what we call a reason to live is also an excellent reason to die
[verse 2]
achilles, achilles, achilles, come down
won’t you get up off, get up off the roof?
the self is not so weightless, nor whole and unbroken
remember the pact of our youth
where you go, i’m going, so jump and i’m jumping
since there is no me without you
soldier on, achilles, achilles, come down
won’t you get up off, get up off the roof?

[pre+chorus]
loathe the way they light candles in rome
but love the sweet air of the votives
hurt and grieve but don’t suffer alone
engage with the pain as a motive

[chorus]
today, of all days, see
how the most dangerous thing is to love
how you will heal and you’ll rise above

[sample]
a property manager who took his own life said he lost his daughter five years ago. he said that he had changed a lot since then and that this story had+”

[verse 3]
achilles, achilles, achilles, jump now
you are absent of cause or excuse
so self+indulgent and self+referential
no audience could ever want you
you crave the applause yet hate the attention
then miss it, your act is a ruse
it is empty, achilles, so end it all now
it’s a pointless resistance for you
[sample]
what triggers the crisis is almost always out of control. the newspapers often speak of “intimate sorrows” or “incurable disease”. these explanations are valid. but we should know if that very day a friend of the desperate man spoke to him in an indifferent tone. this one is the +

[verse 4]
achilles, achilles, just put down the bottle
don’t listen to what you’ve consumed
it’s chaos, confusion and wholly unworthy
of feeding and it’s wholly untrue
you may feel no purpose nor a point for existing
it’s all just conjecture and gloom
and there may not be a meaning, so find one and seize it
do not waste yourself on this roof

[pre+chorus]
hear those bells ring deep in the soul
chiming away for a moment
feel your breath course frankly below
and see life as a worthy opponent

[chorus]
today, of all days, see
how the most dangerous thing is to love
how you will heal and you’ll rise above
crowned by an overture bold and beyond
ah, it’s more courageous to overcome
[sample]
memories of a lost homeland, the hope for a promised land. this divorce between the man of his life+

[bridge]
you want the acclaim, the mother of mothers
(it”s not worth it, achilles)
more poignant than fame or the taste of another
(don’t listen, achilles)
but be real and just jump, you dense motherf+cker
(you’re worth more, achilles)
you will not be more than a rat in the gutter
(so much more than a rat)
you want my opinion, my opinion you’ve got
(no one asked your opinion)
you asked for my counsel, i gave you my thoughts
(no one asked for your thoughts)
be done with this now and jump off the roof
(be done with this now and get off the roof)
can you hear me, achilles? i’m talking to you, to you
i’m talking to you
i’m talking to you
achilles, come down
achilles, come down

[sample]
…either yes or no. this would be too easy. but allowance must be made for those who, without concluding, continue questioning. here i am only slightly indulging in irony. i notice also that those who answer “no” act as if they thought “yes.”

[pre+chorus]
throw yourself into the unknown
with pace and a fury defiant
clothe yourself in beauty untold
and see life as a means to a triumph

[chorus]
today, of all days, see
how the most dangerous thing is to love
how you will heal and you’ll rise above
crowned by an overture bold and beyond
ah, it’s more courageous to overcome
