Mutiny Lyrics

[EURYLOCHUS]
Tell me you did not know that would happen
Say you didn't know how that would end
Look me in the eyes and tell me, Captain
That you did not just sacrifice six men

Use your wits to try and say I'm crazy and mad
That this is all some trick the gods have sent
Tell me you did not miss home so painfully bad
That you gave up the lives of six of our friends

When we fought the cyclops, you were quick to hatch a plan
And when we fought with Circe, it was you who left behind no man
But when we saw this monster, we didn't take a stand
We just ran

Say something

[ODYSSEUS, spoken]
I can't

[EURYLOCHUS, spoken]
Then you havе forced my hand

[SOLDIERS, sung]
Eurylochus

[ODYSSEUS, spoken]
Lower your weapon
[ODYSSEUS]
You don't know that's true
This is the home of the Sun God

[EURYLOCHUS]
I'm starving, my friend

[ODYSSEUS]
But if you kill his cattle, who knows what he'll send?
This is the home of the Sun God

[EURYLOCHUS]
I'm tired, my friend

[ODYSSEUS]
But we're so close to home, this can't be where it ends

[EURYLOCHUS, ODYSSEUS]
How much longer must I suffer now?
Please don't do this
How much longer must I push through doubt?
I need to get home
How much longer must I go about
Eurylochus
My life like this, when people die like this?
Woah-oh-oh

[EURYLOCHUS & SOLDIERS, ODYSSEUS]
How much longer must we suffer now?
Reconsider
How much longer must we push through doubt?
We can get home
How much longer must we go about
Eurylochus
Our lives like this when people die like this?
Woah


[EURYLOCHUS]
I'm just a man

[ODYSSEUS]
Eurylochus, no
You've doomed us
You've doomed us all, Eurylochus


[EURYLOCHUS]
Captain?

[ODYSSEUS]
We need to get away from this island now!
Grab an oar with all the strength your arms allow
These cows were immortal, they were the Sun God's friends
And now that we've pissed them off, who do you think he'll send?

[SOLDIERS]
Full speed ahead
Full speed ahead

[ODYSSEUS]
Faster

[SOLDIERS]
Full speed ahead

[ODYSSEUS, sung]
Faster

[SOLDIERS]
Full speed ahead


[ODYSSEUS, spoken]
We're too late
