lyrics

Sisyphus
Always was
A little bit odd
Never quite
Cool enough
To be one of the gods

He angered Zeus
And for a noose
He was given a rock
To roll uphill
Then again until
He finally dropped

Icarus
Always was
The one they all liked
His waxen wings
Shone as bright
As diamond rings

One cloudless day
He flew away
Toward the sun
He didn’t know
His wings would melt
‘Til it was already done

Icarus saw Sisyphus struggle
And he laughed at how the mighty prevail
Sisyphus saw Icarus falling
And he laughed at how the mighty can fail

Icarus saw Sisyphus struggle
And he laughed at how the mighty prevail
Sisyphus saw Icarus falling
And he laughed at how the mighty can fail
