"Olympus Sleeping" lyrics

"Olympus Sleeping"

Well my god loves your god
Now what will our mortals do?
Olympus sleeping
Crucially I miss you too

Red dust, red dust
Causing heart reactions
Mistrust, mistrust
We always kill our attractions
Missing until we're alone

Oh no, you never shoulda gone back home
You never shoulda gone back home

You say you're with me
Except when he's around
I try to buy you a ticket, get you out
But damn it you're just too proud

Hubris, hubris
You want my unbridled passion
Green planet, green mist
We always kill our attractions
Missing until we're alone

Oh no, you never shoulda gone back home
You never shoulda gone back home
You never, never shoulda gone
You never, never shoulda gone home

Are you really gonna go get on that plane?
Human sandwich all the way back to the states
That's such a lonely thing to do

Are you really gonna go let me get on that stage
All by myself when the lights go down?
That's such a lonely place to be

But then you know me
I know you
The gods decree it all
I damn divinity

You never shoulda gone back home
Leaving me all alone
You never, never shoulda gone
You never shoulda gone back home
You never, never shoulda gone home
You never shoulda gone back
