lirik lagu achilles and the sun - like this, always
[patroclus singing]
[verse 1]
you smile like you don’t know you’re golden
like the sun, just borrowed your face
you run like the gods forgot to teach you
how to slow down
how to stay in one place
but i keep up, sorta
you laugh, when i trip on a stone
you say, “the world moves faster with you in it”
and i don’t feel quite so alone
like this;
[verse 2]
we trade figs and stories
lay flat in the olive shade
you say i’m terrible at swimming
i say, “that’s just how mortals are made”
you splash me, i curse, you grin
the sea gets jealous of the noise
i think the gods must be watching
or maybe they gave up granting boys, like us
this kind of quiet joy
[chorus 1]
let them tell tales
of heroes and blades
of battles and beasts
of temples and praise
i’d rather have this:
your hand in the grass
the tilt of your head when you’re trying to pass
a secret through silence
just like this:
like breath
like bees
like summer, you don’t wanna end
if this is all the story we get
let it begin, like this ~
[verse 3]
you ask if i’d follow you anywhere
and i don’t say yes, i just do
the way the tide follows the moon
i don’t choose it
i just move with you
we race like boys with nothing to lose
not yet, not now, not here
and even when we speak of fate
you say it soft
like it’s not something to fear
[chorus 2]
let them write poems
with swords in their lines
with honour and grief
with warnings and signs
i’ll take this instead:
a laugh in your throat
a dare in your dare
a kiss barely spoke
if we are a myth
let it be one of peace
of hands that held on longer than fate ever planned
if love is the start and the end
then let it end like this
