These lyrics were written for an instrumental piece I composed that seemed to plane, it used a Greek guitar thus the Greek mythology references.

Angled Photos on the wall
Of dead commanders flying tall
Who flew to Atlantis
But got lost on the way

They were swept by the sirens
Who sung songs to starve you
Raped by the diamonds
That emptied us all

Even Zeus didn’t know what to say
When he saw them dead in the snow
Life drowned out of their heads  
Like dreams of gold  

Not many will remember
The Days they went through
The cold winter nights
The hot summer fights
