Lyrics
(Verse 1)
I was a king with a cunning mind,
Ruled my land, but I was blind,
Thought I could cheat the gods and win,
But fate had a way of reeling me in.
(Verse 2)
I tricked old Hades, thought I was sly,
But you can’t outrun the gods in the sky,
They caught me quick and cast me down,
To a hill so high outside of town.
[Bridge]
[Guitar solo]
(Pre-Chorus)
Every day, I push that stone,
Up the hill, all alone,
And when it falls, I start again,
In this endless, lonely pen.
(Chorus)
Oh, I'm Sisyphus, rollin’ that rock,
Forever bound, never stops,
A life of struggle, no relief,
An endless cycle of my own deceit.
[drum drop]
(Verse 3)
I miss the days when I wore the crown,
Before the gods, they cut me down,
But now it’s dust and sweat and tears,
As I face my deepest fears.
(Verse 4)
People talk of freedom, skies so blue,
But I see grey in every hue,
I chose my fate with every lie,
Now I’m stuck here, do or die.
(Pre-Chorus)
Every day, I push that stone,
Up the hill, all alone,
And when it falls, I start again,
In this endless, lonely pen.
(Chorus)
Oh, I'm Sisyphus, rollin’ that rock,
Forever bound, never stops,
A life of struggle, no relief,
An endless cycle of my own deceit.
(Verse 5)
Night comes down, but there's no rest,
With every dawn, another test,
This cursed boulder’s my only friend,
In a life that’ll never end.
(Verse 6)
Sometimes I wonder, what’s the use,
In this eternal, damned abuse,
But then I feel a spark of pride,
In the struggle, I'm alive.
(Pre-Chorus)
Every day, I push that stone,
Up the hill, all alone,
And when it falls, I start again,
In this endless, lonely pen.
(Chorus)
Oh, I'm Sisyphus, rollin’ that rock,
Forever bound, never stops,
A life of struggle, no relief,
An endless cycle of my own deceit.
(Verse 7)
Maybe someday, I’ll find peace,
In the effort, a sweet release,
For now, I’ll push and bear the load,
Finding meaning on this road.
(Outro)
I’m Sisyphus, hear my song,
In the struggle, I belong,
Though I fall, I rise again,
In this labor, I find my pen.

That Rock and Roll Forever

That Rock and Roll Forever
