The song of the sirens
[media=https://youtu.be/yqizqmPObRo]
Music and words from The Odyssey
Christopher Nolan’s version
“All the things you wanted to be
and then all the things
you wished you never wished for.
It was a delicious itch
you want to scratch
but you find it under the skin
and can’t reach it.
So the delicious itch
becomes unbearable.
It told you
what you most want
is what you most can’t have
and that the most you can’t have
is what you already had
and lost.
It was a song
of all the promises
I failed to keep
And it told me
I don’t really want
to go home…”
