It was almost embarrassing that I didn't learn of the classic kids' fairytales until I went to school. To anyone interested in listening to music inspired by Ancient Greece, I'd suggest giving a band called Daemonia Nymphe a chance.

    Achilles Achilles... He'll forever be my favorite greek god, well... Demi-god. His story in The song of Achilles made me melt like the snow in spring. The way he'd do anything for his lover Patroclus has me believe in goodness and love. The way he wasn't only fighting his enemy for his ego, but for the ones he love. His hope in becoming the first happy hero everyone will admire and his beautiful way to talk. I could talk about that boy and his pretty golden hair for hours. He's also pretty realistic to real life, he's not like the others. He's, different and special. Sometimes, the think of him make me want all of these greek mythology to exist. I wish he lived, i wish his story was true. I'm sure of if he was real he'd change the aspects of life for everyone, i hope people will figure out how much he deserve the attention of the world. I'm rambling in my talk right now, but i cant stop talking Achilles, and of course, Patroclus my dear. They both deserve better.

I like Achilles but he is not the good guy in any story. Though, the only person he isn’t ruthless with is his lover Patroclus which is actually good. With all the Greek relationships of abuse and rape, Achilles is the most gently and kind lover I’d say.

    so “Achilles, Come Down” became THE song for me and my first real love and i think it’s especially heartbreaking considering how things ended because we still love each other, but events in life pulled us apart and we both met each other at what we thought was our darkest point…and anytime one of us was struggling we would write “soldier on, Achilles” on each others wrists, and now i write it on my own wrist and wonder if he does the same.

  • @lc5286

    Hey everyone, it's nice to see how many people like Greco-Roman mythology! Where I'm from there's a kind of school that focuses on classical studies, so we study ancient Greek and Latin as well as classical literature and culture. It's a difficult kind of school but it's so worth it, to be able to actually read the Iliad or the Odyssey, but also the tragedies, comedies and poems in general. I encourage you to discover what the past has in hold for you; only the gods know how much beauty and how much philosophy is out there waiting to be enjoyed by yet another soul, eager to make you grow, to confort you and gift you emotions from 2500 years ago.
    Beware though, most myths are quite raw, as they reflect human nature; so do not expect song of Achilles or Percy Jackson family friendly stuff.
    So yeah, go to the library and contribute to the immortality of ancient gods, heroes and poets; because it's thanks to us, the readers, that they are still alive to this day

    He stood upon the precipice, upon a cliff of dizzying descent with a fall into raging waters and jagged granite spears. Or was it a another kind of precipice? That of deranged lucidity, a paradox, understanding amidst the madness of it all.
    Blood spattered his form. His flesh, sculpted as if from marble, was tainted by ichor of lesser men. But were they truly lesser? They must have been, they had lost, and he had won after all. Is that not so?
    He glanced back at the carnage he had wrought, at the tomes of untold stories left behind in the corpses of his foes.
    "Perhaps it isn't so." His voice was as smooth as honey, salted with the dregs of Olympus itself.
    *"We liken you to a painting, did you know? Strokes of ink belaying what it is to be so utterly mortal."*
    He turned, eyeing the green-feathered owl perched upon the rocks nearby. "You again..." He shook his head. "I am no painting."
    *"Then what are you?"*
    The wind howled as if in mourning. It carried with it the stench of death, and tragedy... and *war* .
    "A museum," he replied softly. "A museum of all the things I wish to forget."
    The creature did not respond, only watching as the soldier wrenched his sarissa free from the rock he had embed it in. Watching as he turned away from the cliff's edge, and walked towards the sounds of ringing steel and dying men once more.

It’s like a hollow despair of sadness and depression that I don’t know how or if I will ever come out of..

    Achilles, Come Down (Gang of Youths) Lyrics: 0:00
    Achilles, Achilles, Achilles, come down
    Won't you get up off, get up off the roof?
    You're scaring us and all of us, some of us love you
    Achilles, it's not much but there's proof
    You crazy-assed cosmonaut, remember your virtue
    Redemption lies plainly in truth
    Just humour us, Achilles, Achilles, come down
    Won't you get up off, get up off the roof
    Achilles, Achilles, Achilles, come down
    Won't you get up off, get up off the roof?
    The self is not so weightless, nor whole and unbroken
    Remember the pact of our youth
    Where you go, I'm going, so jump and I'm jumping
    Since there is no me without you
    Soldier on, Achilles, Achilles, come down
    Won't you get up off, get up off the roof?
    Loathe the way they light candles in Rome
    But love the sweet air of the votives
    Hurt and grieve but don't suffer alone
    Engage with the pain as a motive
    Today of all days, see
    How the most dangerous thing is to love
    How you will heal and you'll rise above
    Achilles, Achilles, Achilles, jump now
    You are absent of cause or excuse
    So self-indulgent and self-referential
    No audience could ever want you
    You crave the applause yet hate the attention
    Then miss it, your act is a ruse
    It is empty, Achilles, so end it all now
    It's a pointless resistance for you
    Achilles, Achilles, just put down the bottle
    Don't listen to what you've consumed
    It's chaos, confusion and wholly unworthy
    Of feeding and it's wholly untrue
    You may feel no purpose nor a point for existing
    It's all just conjecture and gloom
    And there may not be meaning, so find one and seize it
    Do not waste yourself on this roof
    Hear those bells ring deep in the soul
    Chiming away for a moment
    Feel your breath course frankly below
    And see life as a worthy opponent
    Today of all days, see
    How the most dangerous thing is to love
    How you will heal and you'll rise above
    Crowned by an overture bold and beyond
    Ah, it's more courageous to overcome
    You want the acclaim, the mother of mothers
    (It's not worth it, Achilles)
    More poignant than fame or the taste of another
    (Don't listen, Achilles)
    But be real and just jump, you dense motherfucker
    (You're worth more, Achilles)
    You will not be more than a rat in the gutter
    (So much more than a rat)
    You want my opinion, my opinion you've got
    (No one asked your opinion)
    You asked for my counsel, I gave you my thoughts
    (No one asked for your thoughts)
    Be done with this now and jump off the roof
    (Be done with this now and get off the roof)
    Can you hear me, Achilles? I'm talking to you
    I'm talking to you
    I'm talking to you
    I'm talking to you
    Achilles, come down
    Achilles, come down
    Throw yourself into the unknown
    With pace and a fury defiant
    Clothe yourself in beauty untold
    And see life as a means to a triumph
    Today of all days, see
    How the most dangerous thing is to love
    How you will heal and you'll rise above
    Crowned by an overture bold and beyond
    Ah, it's more courageous to overcome
    Midas (Skott) Lyrics: 7:05
    Midas, you've got me thinking 'bout the story
    You've everything you've ever wanted
    But will you ever get to hold me?
    Doesn't it get lonely?
    And Midas, you're used to hearing that you're something
    Above the ordinary, golden
    You wanna be the one and only
    Doesn't it get lonely?
    But you won't get away with it
    No, you won't get away with it 'cause I
    I look at you, I'm seeing that you're just as lost as I
    Know, I'm not afraid of it
    No, I'm not afraid to close my eyes
    Oh, how I wish that there's was a way that we could
    Always, always live for always
    Till we die together
    Say you want to be here
    You wanna be young
    You wanna be my love
    Always be in my love
    Say that you remember
    Feeling the same about me
    Midas, you've got me thinking 'bout the legends
    You know you'll join 'em up in heaven
    But if you stay with me, no hurry
    I will make it worth it
    Midas, you're like a monument, a statue
    No man on earth could ever hurt you
    No, you don't ever have to worry
    Why do I still worry?
    And you won't get away with it
    No, you won't get away with it 'cause I
    I look at you, I'm seeing that there's something in your eyes
    Saying you're afraid of it
    Saying you're afraid of passing time
    Oh, how I wish that there's was a way that we could
    Always, always live for always
    Till we die together
    Say you want to be here
    You wanna be young
    You wanna be my love
    Always be in my love
    Say that you remember
    Feeling the same about me
    Always, always live for always
    Till we die together
    Say you want to be here
    You wanna be young
    You wanna be my love
    Always be in my love
    Say that you remember
    Feeling the same about me
    Icarus & Apollo (Ripto) Lyrics: 11:05
    Apollo showed me the sun
    Told me not to fly too close
    Or else I would be one
    With the people on the land
    Icarus, show me the moon
    Point me in a new direction
    Far away from you
    Avoiding all the aftermath
    Daylight shuffles in
    Cascading through the open door
    And dancing on your lips
    Where you held your cigarette
    I remember when
    You told me you were afraid to die
    And then you grabbed my hand
    Just above the kitchen table
    So, Apollo, bring me back
    To the place I was before I met you
    And Icarus, lead the way
    To where I need to go
    I hear your footsteps now
    Barefoot soles on the bathroom floor
    And on my way out
    I told you I would never leave

      Yeah it’s French haha.
      This lyrics are quite dark… They are about depression, and a man jumping off a roof after his daughter was killed a couple of years ago. They’re talking about a battery and a promised land too. That’s all I can make out since it’s in the background
