Herme's Lament
I hate when I have to fly
On winged feet
To deliver words
I don't want to speak
A pawn that's always being used
I wish I could stay
On solid ground
People see me coming
They try to shoot me down
An arrow for the one who carries the news
I remember when
My words brought joy
But these days it seems
They're a dark convoy
A fleet of ships sent to abuse
Maybe this will be
My final flight
I lead the man to Hades
And see out his fight
To end the reign of Zeus
On winged feet
To deliver words
I don't want to speak
A pawn that's always being used
I wish I could stay
On solid ground
People see me coming
They try to shoot me down
An arrow for the one who carries the news
I remember when
My words brought joy
But these days it seems
They're a dark convoy
A fleet of ships sent to abuse
Maybe this will be
My final flight
I lead the man to Hades
And see out his fight
To end the reign of Zeus
