Righteous Punishment

Chained in here forever
Punished for my sins
A daily fight against the eagle of Zeus
Which shall last for eons
With no sign of his mercy

Standing for a sign of betrayal
Here in flesh and bones
My treachery everyone knows
I can sense the danger that has yet to come

Misled by their complement made out of dishonesty
A godly present unwrapped
Gifted to my brother Epimetheus
The lord of hindsight
Who does not understand
Our misery
Total catastrophe

Yet to come
Can't avoid

Not recognizing what he's brought into the world
My advice declining gifts from Zeus not taken
A slumbering danger among human beings
A box never meant to be opened at all

A burdening gift of curiosity
That can destroy everything we fought for
Destroy everything we fought for

Lost all feeling for my senses
The mist of despair slowly fading away
Preparing for our impending doom
Revealing the view on our ticking clock

Forever be hidden away from humanity
Lost all control to determine our destiny
To suffer for eternity and beyond
My punishment to atone for my sins
