Just a Man [Cut ver.]
[ODYSSEUS]
I look into your eyes and I
Think back to the son of mine
You're as old as he was when I left for war
Will these actions haunt my days?
Every single man I've slain?
Men whose only sin was standing in my way
[ODYSSEUS, ENSEMBLE]
I'm just a man (Just a man)
Who's trying to go home (Go home)
What awaits there? I don't know
I long to see my family
I long to see Penelope
I'm just a man (Just a man)
Who's fighting for his life (For his life)
Who longs to see his wife
I long to see my family
I long to see Penelope (Penelope)
[ODYSSEUS]
But when does a comet become a meteor?
When does a candle become a blaze?
When does a man become a monster?
When does a ripple become a tidal wave?
When does the reason become the blame?
When does a man become a monster?
[ODYSSEUS, ENSEMBLE]
When does a comet become a meteor?
When does a candle become a blaze? (Forgive me)
When does a man become a monster? (Forgive me)
When does a man become a monster? (Forgive me)
[ODYSSEUS]
I'm just a man
