[00:07.99]Achilles, Achilles, Achilles come down
[00:11.51]Won’t you get up off, get up off the roof?
[00:15.92]You’re scaring us and all of us, some of us love you,
[00:19.89]Achilles, it's not much but there’s proof
[00:24.09]You crazy-ass cosmonaut, remember your virtue
[00:27.81]Redemption lies plainly in truth
[00:31.91]Just humor us, Achilles, Achilles come down
[00:35.49]Won’t you get up off, get up off the roof?
[00:55.97]Achilles, Achilles, Achilles come down
[00:59.45]Won’t you get up off, get up off the roof?
[01:04.05]The self is not so weightless, nor whole or unbroken
[01:07.84]Remember the pact of our youth
[01:11.95]Where you go, I’m going, so jump and I’m jumping
[01:16.11]Since there is no me without you
[01:20.04]Soldier on Achilles, Achilles come down
[01:23.56]Won’t you get up off, get up off the roof?
[01:28.19]Loathe the way they light candles in Rome,
[01:31.66]But love the sweet air of the votives
[01:36.11]Hurt and grieve but don’t suffer alone
[01:39.96]Engage with the pain as a motive
[01:43.96]Today of all days, see
[01:50.16]How the most dangerous thing is to love
[01:58.32]How you will heal and you’ll rise above
[02:14.03]Achilles, Achilles, Achilles jump now
[02:17.65]You are absent of cause or excuse
[02:22.17]So self-indulgent and self-reverential,
[02:25.79]No audience could ever want you
[02:30.02]You crave the applause yet hate the attention
[02:33.73]Then miss it, your act is a ruse
[02:37.96]It is empty, Achilles, so end it all now
[02:41.49]It’s a pointless resistance for you
[03:02.02]Achilles, Achilles, just put down the bottle
[03:05.00]It’s all just conjecture and gloom
[03:05.77]Don’t listen to what you’ve consumed
[03:09.86]It’s chaos, confusion, and wholly unworthy
[03:13.70]Of feeding and it’s wholly untrue
[03:18.01]You may feel no purpose nor a point for existing It’s all just conjecture and gloom. And there may not be meaning, so find one and seize it
[03:29.90]Do not waste yourself on this roof
[03:34.21]Hear those bells ring deep in the soul,
[03:38.05]Chiming away for a moment
[03:42.09]Feel your breath course frankly below
[03:46.36]And see life as a worthy opponent
[03:49.95]Today, of all days, see
[03:56.07]How the most dangerous thing is to love
[04:04.18]How you will heal and you’ll rise above
[04:12.13]Crowned by an overture bold and beyond
[04:20.44]Ah, it’s more courageous to overcome
[04:32.44]You want the acclaim, the mother of mothers
[04:34.94](It’s not worth it, Achilles!)
[04:36.22]More poignant than fame or the taste of another
[04:38.85](Don’t listen, Achilles!)
[04:40.25]But be real and just jump, you dense mother****er
[04:42.84](You’re worth more, Achilles!)
[04:44.13]You will not be more than a rat in the gutter
[04:46.67](So much more than a rat)
[04:48.15]You want my opinion, my opinion you’ve got
[04:49.89](No one asked your opinion!)
[04:52.15]You asked for my counsel, I gave you my thoughts
[04:53.74](No one asked for your thoughts)
[04:55.93]Be done with this now and jump off the roof
[04:56.27](Be done with this now and get off the roof)
[04:59.92]Can you hear me, Achilles? I’m talking to you
[05:06.97]I’m talking to you
[05:11.02]I’m talking to you
[05:15.62]I’m talking to you
[05:19.61]Achilles, come down
[05:23.69]Achilles, come down
[06:04.27]Throw yourself into the unknown,
[06:07.77]With pace and a fury defiant
[06:12.05]Clothe yourself in beauty untold
[06:15.88]And see life as a means to a triumph
[06:20.09]Today, of all days, see
[06:26.23]How the most dangerous thing is to love
[06:34.05]How you will heal and you’ll rise above
[06:42.19]Crowned by an overture bold and beyond
[06:50.21]Ah, it’s more courageous to overcome
