[ODYSSEUS]
How has everything been turned against us?
How did suffering become so endless?
How am I to reunite with my estranged?
Do I need to change?
I'm surrounded by the souls of those I've lost
I'm the only one whose line I haven't crossed
What if the greatest threat we'll find across the sea
Is me?
What if I'm the monster?
What if I'm in the wrong?
What if I'm the problem that's been hiding all along?
What if I'm the one who killed you
Every time I caved to guilt?
What if I've been far too kind to foes
But a monster to ourselves?
What if I'm the monster?
Is the cyclops struck with guilt when he kills?
Is he up in the middle of the night?
Or does he end my men to avenge his friend
And then sleep knowing he has done him right?
When the witch turns men to pigs to protect her nymphs is she going insane?
Or did she learn to be colder when she got older and now she saves them the pain?
When a god comes down and makes a fleet drown
Is he scared that he's doing something wrong?
Or does he keep us in check so we must respect him
And now no one dares to piss him off?
Does a soldier use a wooden horse to kill sleeping Trojans 'cause he is vile?
Or does he throw away his remorse and save more lives with guile
If I became the monster, and threw that guilt away
Would that make us stronger?
Would it keep our foes at bay?
If I became the monster to everyone but us
And made sure we got home again
Who would care if we're unjust?
If I became the
[SOLDIERS]
Monster
[ODYSSEUS]
Oh, ruthlessness is mercy upon ourselves
[SOLDIERS]
Monster
[ODYSSEUS]
And deep down I know this well
I lost my best friend
I lost my mentor, my mom
Five hundred men gone, this can't go on
I must get to see Penelope and Telemachus
So if we must sail through dangerous oceans and beaches
I'll go where Poseidon won't reach us
And if I gotta drop another infant from a wall
In an instant so we all don't die
[ODYSSEUS, ALL]
Then I'll become the
Monster
I will deal the blow
And I'll become the
Monster
Like none they've ever known
So what if I'm the
Monster
Lurking deep below?
I must become the
Monster
And then we'll make it home
Monster
Penelope
Monster
Telemachus
Monster
Oh, ruthlessness is mercy upon ourselves
Monster
I'll become the monster
"Ruthlessness is mercy upon ourselves" is such a LINE
It's a reference to the ocean saga I think.
@@sundrop3137Yeah, the last song in the ocean saga, Ruthlessness, sung by Poseidon before he drowned every one of Odyseus' ships except the one that Odyseus was on with his other 43 men that were on his ship
So a few years ago I was playing DnD and we had a situation where we as the party had a choice kill the woman we've known since the beginning of the campaign and this woman was a traveling companion to us and saved countless lives through her faith and understanding. All to gain an orb to grant a wish to save the land or we could let her live and cause an army of demons and untold legends of darkness to invade the plane from a single point in space causing untold damage and death.
Well my party wanted to save her and deal with the hord another way but deep down we all knew what had to be done (DM made it clear and we knew it) so I said and I quote "I'll become the monster so they know who to blame for her death" and as I said this I plunged a blade through her heart before the party could stop me and I was granted the orb at the cost of a dear friend.
To this day I've always told people if need be "I'll become the monster if it means the people I love are safe"
This song is amazing and I can't believe how well you captured that raw emotion thank you.
found this after seeing an animatic both the song and animation were beautiful
I swear the deep meaning of this song... Especially the "RAWR RAWR RAWR" line... It gets me everytime...
✨I am the monster rawr rawr rawr✨
✨️I am the monster rawr rawr rawr✨️
