LyricsKeep Your Friends Close

Great wind god Aeolus

I don't know

if you know this

But our path to home

is blocked by

an impenetrable storm

I ask for your assistance

So we at last

can go the distance

Can you cast the perfect

winds for us and

aid our journey home

Ha ha ha

I am the wind

twisting and turning

I give the fire enough

to stay burning

Let's play a game

A game

That's what I'm serving

And if you win you will

get what you're yearning

Deal

Take a look right

here at this bag

It has the winds of

the storm all trapped

All you gotta do is

not open this bag

Sounds too easy

what's the catch

Ha ha ha

Keep your friends close

and your enemies closer

Never really know who you can trust

If they wanna get

the bag open you

gotta say no sir

Sometimes killing is a must

What

'Cause the end always

justifies the means

Friends turn to foes

and rivalries so

Keep your friends close

and your enemies closer

Never really know who you can trust

Never really know who you can trust

Captain what's happening

What's trapped

in that bag

Something dangerous

friends we mustn't lag

It's treatures

What

Bye bye

Open the bag

Let's see what you

got

No do not

Everybody listen closely

See how this

bag is closed

That's how it's

supposed to be

This bag has

the storm inside

We cannot let the

treasure rumour fly

We'll try

Keep your friends close

and your enemies closer

Never really know who you can trust

Now they wanna get

the bag open so

they can have closure

Sometimes sneaking is a must

'Cause the end always

justifies the means

Everything'schanged since Polites so

Keep your friends close

and your enemies closer

Never really know who you can trust

For nine days I've

stayed wide awake

Trying to make it home

with no storm

or tidal wave

I remain unopposed the

bag is still closed

And I'm getting

closer to you

I can't wait to make

some new memories

Telemachus

Time for me to be

the father

I never was

Just keep your eyes open

Why are my eyes

and my heart and

my soul so heavy

Just keep your eyes open

I keep on trying

to embrace you both

Why won't you let me

Just keep your eyes open

So much has changed

but I'm the same

Yes I'm the same

Just keep your eyes open

Keep your eyes open

Wake up

Wake up Odysseus

they're opening the bag

Wake up

No

Keep your friends close

and your enemies closer

Never really know who you can trust

Storm

Where's the storm

taking us

I said to keep the bag

closed

but you

weren't compliant

If I had to guess

you're headed to the

land of the giants

Storm storm

Help me close the bag

But sir it's too late

We can save whatever

wind is left to

use another day

Come on

Odysseus of Ithaca

Do you know who I am
