Okay
Am When the Goddess Demeter
G had her daughter gone away
C All the farmlands were stripped barren
G and the sky was turned to gray
F Until her loved one was returned
Am The whole world could stay flawed
F, G So the darkness gave her daughter back
Am to appease the angry God
F, G Oh Demeter, oh Demeter
Am won't you tell me how it feels
F, G to have the whole world grieve with you
Am and bow to your appeals
C, F to not have to face reality
G and admit, though it feels wrong
F, G that some near day you'll be okay
Am till then, you'll carry on
chorus
F, G Oh, I am not a God or King
Am To stop the world with my suffering
C,F,G and I wouldn't really want to if I tried
F, G But knowing that I'll be okay
Am and tomorrow's just another day
F, G Feels like disrespect
Am to the love we have that died
A King named Menelaus
had a beauty for a wife
But she left him for another man
and he vowed to take her life
then a single bitter utterance
from an angry cuckold's lips
littered Troy with bodies
from a thousand face-launched ships
Menelaus, Menelaus
are there any other wives
who could set a war in action
and have men laying down their lives
How your selfishness and power
Outstrip any that I bear
I could never do what you have done
But that sometimes feels unfair
