about

Odysseus reminisces about the home and wife he believes he is about to return to, but will not see for many more years.

lyrics

There where the ocean ends just past the sky-line,
Where the seagulls are whirling and singing their song
When each part of my body is screaming for rest
There’s a hook in my ribcage that pulls me along

There where the bronze of the sky comes all feather-white
There where reflection turns into a flame
What I know is waiting for me keeps my heart on a chain

I’ve got a house on a hill where the bills are almost all paid
I’ve got friends and neighbors, and a quiet life that I’ve made
I’ve got a girl that I’ve had since high school, and I know her and she knows me
Just over the horizon

Just over…
