sierra sikora - dear athena lyrics

dear athena, oh the wise
answers lie behind your eyes
tell me what becomes of me
my sweet goddess

dear athena, by your grace
give me solace in this place
in the labyrinth where i’m
trapped in the same pathways

i’m being chased
it looks like me
the parts that i neglect to see
athena, tell me everything’s alright

papyrus inked by window light
beneath the purple, starless sky
athena, please, i beg you for a sign

[chorus]
athena, pick up your scroll
give me just a word
this war’s taken a toll
on my human body
bless me with your insight
can’t fight this alone
outside your empty home
there lies a growing pile of notes
dear athena, oh the smart
place your hand upon my heart
lest it shatters from the weight
of all my questions

dear athena, i implore
i hear no wings at my door
i wait up for you
a spiral, paralyzed

i’m cornered now
can’t see the face
of hands that pull me through the maze
i’m slamming into walls, can’t find the exit

there seems to be a million halls
the mirrors offer no resolve
athena, please, reach back to
slow my thoughts

[chorus]
athena, pick up your scroll
give me just a word
this war’s taken a toll
on my human body
bless me with your insight
can’t fight this alone
outside your empty home
there lies a growing pile of notes
did you get locked away
expecting you’ll be different
you’re always the same
i see you on the walls here
on that creature’s face
i write to you in vain
when i read them again
you can’t sway what’s changed

[bridge]
athena, pick up your scroll
dip your quill in ink
you remember the toll
this war on my body
bless me with what you know
still my shaking hands
invoke your power, let me know
that i’m not writing to a ghost
