[ULYSSES]
I am not one
Who would run for cheap advice
I’ve never sought divine assistance
The end is never worth the price
But this time
We dance to a different tune
That none of us should play

Caught by madness
Like friend, like foe
Shouting words
None of us should say

Ah, but I can recognize failure
I can stare it in the face
I know when the game is over
And when to vanish
Without a trace

Vengeance, glory, wеalth, and power
Count for nothing now
Just life
Or death
In this final hour
Is all thе gods allow
I've never been
One to beg or plead
I've never believed in magic
When my wits
My courage are all I've needed, but
Athena, if you're really there
Answer this mortal's prayer
Let passion rule for the lovers
And the fools
When victory is earned by a different rule

This prayer's for the living
These tears for dead
I pledge my life, my soul
I give you my all
My heart
And my head

This war is a tragic folly
We must end it somehow
Help me, goddess
I care not how
But do it
And do it now (now, now)

[MENELAUS]
Nothing short of death
Will keep me away
Each and every living Trojan
Will rue this day
Let all their descendants
Cry out for vengeance
For the gods have borne witness
To all I say

[ULYSSES]
So fellow warriors
Our last stand
The goddess Athena
Has shown her hand
This monument to wisdom
And the treachery of man
Is hollow inside
And I have a plan

Well, I know I'll be punished
And driven to despair
But desperate times
Breed desperate men
So Athena, do your worst
I don't care
I've lost sight of honor
Or just what must be done
We've no cause to rejoice
We have no choice
This war must be won
When anger and passion trapped us
I should have known
From the start
There is no doubt
The only way out
Is a head without a heart
