Mother of Muses

Mother of Muses sing for meSing of the mountains and the deep dark seaSing of the lakes and the nymphs of the forestSing your hearts out, all your women of the chorusSing of honor and fate and glory beMother of Muses sing for meMother of Muses sing for my heartSing of a love too soon to departSing of the heroes who stood aloneWhose names are engraved on tablets of stoneWho struggled with pain so the world could go freeMother of Muses sing for meSing of Sherman, Montgomery and Scott‬And of Zhukov, and Patton, and the battles they foughtWho cleared the path for Presley to singWho carved the path for Martin Luther KingWho did what they did and they went on their wayMan, I could tell their stories all dayI'm falling in love with CalliopeShe don't belong to anyone, why not give her to me?She's speaking to me, speaking with her eyesI've grown so tired of chasing liesMother of Muses, wherever you areI've already outlived my life by farMother of Muses, unleash your wrathThings I can't see, they're blocking my pathShow me your wisdom, tell me my fatePut me upright, make me walk straightForge my identity from the inside outYou know what I'm talking aboutTake me to the river, release your charmsLet me down a while in your sweet, loving armsWake me, shake me, free me from sinMake me invisible, like the windGot a mind that ramble, got a mind that roamI'm travelin' light and I'm a-slow coming home
