Orpheus by Ed Hobson Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 2019

[Intro]
Murphy's kinda cute though
Ignoring the warning's of his father
He rose higher and higher
To witnesses on the ground, he looked like a God
And as he peered down from above he felt like one too

[Chorus]
You can call me Orpheus
I been through Hades and back
Blinded by Dionysus' brightness
False enlightened [?] as Icarus fell
Now watch how he rises

[Verse 1]
[?] Heracles, the Bacchanal was scaring me
The face I used to wear was wearing me
My clarity, as black as my sincerity (Oh)
I need the freedom terribly
In front of me, Ithaca in the distance
To heaven my voice was lifted
It seemed like no one was listenin'
[?] with bottomless desperation
The back door winds took care of me
On home to my salvation
[Chorus]
You can call me Orpheus
I been through Hades and back
Blinded by Dionysus' brightness
False enlightened [?] as Icarus fell
Now watch how he rises

[Verse 2]
Maybe I thought of me as Socrates
Or better Sophocles writing tragedies
On my knees nightly
The Hobbits were trying to fight me
Fingers around me tightly
Teeth through my Achilles

[Bridge]
All alone
I never know
What kind of God could guide me home?
Why do they hate me in front of Hades?
Blessed by sharp light
I plucked my harp like

[Solo]

[Chorus]
You can call me Orpheus
I been through Hades and back
Blinded by Dionysus' brightness
False enlightened [?] as Icarus fell
Now watch how he rises
You can call me Orpheus
I been through Hades and back
Blinded by Dionysus' brightness
False enlightened [?] as Icarus fell
Now watch how he rises
