Hercules

I am no Hercules
Defeated on my knees
Asking for mercy
Oh please...

The wars for wants have all ended
The peace from mountains has descended
And everyone knows that the war is over
But no one remembers the dead pillars of power

And they are singing happy songs
Brought to them by dying pangs
So when the saint finds the tear
of the lover
Laying dead in the autumn cover
He will know a thing that lasts forever
And it's not a thing of power
That kings claim to be

But no; I am no Hercules
Defeated on my knees
Asking for mercy
Oh please...

So when you set off the wagons of wish
When you burn the candles of flesh
When you are down to one last breath
When you close your eyes to see him
And when you remember all your sins
What do you do?
You pray
Will you too
For me?
Coz you know...

I am no Hercules
Defeated on my knees
Asking for mercy
Oh please...
