A siren call

They were approaching
And for my brave crew
I listened to the siren call
My crew wanted to hear
But were driven to madness
And like all envy temptation
I longed to draw near them
Their lustful message sent
Flesh responded to the sound
I knew just what they meant
I'd dream, to have them now
And would do anything again
Without a mind to my safety
I'd have given up everything
To once more hear them sing


The Odyssey
