jeremy francoeur - tantalus كلمات الأغنية

[verse 1]
hail fellow, well met
welcome, friend, to my banquet
behold this feast for thee
don’t keep me waiting
seldom am i shown displaying
such a courtesy
all’s well, when finally
you insult my hospitality
punishment is necessary
if you’re the sinner, tell me
why am i the one dangling
from this tree?

[chorus]
i gave you food and i gave you rest
you alone i swore to protect
to me you blessed lavish promises
how could one forget?
now that i’ve called your bluff
realized i was fool enough not to see
tantalus got the best of me

[verse 2]
your dish always tasted off
it turns out you’d left it to rot
a silver smile
over all details, it will varnish
i’m lucky you waited for yours to tarnish
’cause now, i see everything
a bad polish made your plate pretty
but what’s most unnerving
is i ate half your dish, i stomached it
how could you?

[bridge]
you thought you were the victor
you drew what ran ichor
i got angry, you said you were sorry
bent my trust to commit atrocities
every time that i reach for the apple
above my head
i can’t help but seethe and think
how you should be here instead!

[outro]
hail fellow, well met
welcome, once again, to my banquet…
