Ryan Scott Long - athena

Time was something we had an abundance of
Until you messed it up
And now you're getting on the next plane out of town
I watched you leave and my Aphrodite fell
I was screaming out for you
To give it up and make them turn your plane around

You were married to the fire
But you were making love to war
Thought you were God of my desire
But I don't know anymore

Who knew that fighting a lover
Would feel a lot like losing a brother?
It's hard to stay the course
When you lose the one you belong to
Can't find the right way to guide you home
And there ain't no Trojan Horse
But you can call me Athena
Cause I know I couldn't leave you if I tried
You can call me Athena
Forever I am hiding in plain sight

Pride is something I have an abundance of
When they leave, they mess that up
But you could've been the only one who stayed

If we were side by side on a fault line
Would the front line still try to take us down?
Is it right to call it friendly fire when the gun for hire
Went from someone you love
To someone you just see around?

Who knew that fighting a lover
Could end in losing a brother?
It's hard to stay the course
When you lose the one you belong to
Can't find the right way to guide you home
And there ain't no Trojan Horse
But you can call me Athena
Cause I know I couldn't leave you if I tried
You can call me Athena
Forever I am hiding in plain sight
