about

the smell of goat flesh burns

lyrics

THE SPAWN OF POSSIDON
the sight of land is breaking
on this long journey home
leaving the trojans slain
returning from war
the winds and oceans carry
to this island of
the spawn of poseidon
sons of the ocean god
reaching the shore with hunger
a skin of wine for the king
searching they find no one
and entered the cave ahead
sons of the ocean god rule this land
run, hide
the brave escape with their lives
feasting in the cave of abundance
the smell of goat flesh burns
heavy footsteps of thunder
as the master returns
eye of the cylops tyrant
spies those within
they know to be discovered
would certainly be the end
trapped inside they witness
the brutal death of many
into the mouth of the tyrant
let the blood bath begin
drink master
your slaves offer you wine
drink till you’ve reached your fill
and achieve the divine
servant you are tell me thine name
speak now and answer me fast
and so “no man” you’re generouse
so i shall devour you last
sharpen the stake to gouge the eye
of this drunken tyrant
smoldering flames sharpen the blade
deliver blinding pain
rise to blind the eye
thrashing and tossed, blinded and lost
his brothers ask at what hands
they sneer at odds, must be the gods
for claims he it was “no man”
