Athena

I had no idea how much I need her

In peaceful times I hold her close and I feed her

My heart starts palpitating

When I think my guess was wrong

But I think I'll get alone

She's just a girl

She's a bomb

Athena

All I ever want to do is please her

My life has been so settled

And she's the reason

Just one word from her

And my troubles are long gone

But I think I'll get along

She's just a girl

She's a bomb

She's a bomb

Just a girl, just a girl

Just a girl, just a girl

Just a girl, just a girl

She's just a girl

Athena

My heart felt like a shattered glass in an acid bath

I felt like one of those flattened ants

You find on a crazy path

I'd have stopped myself to give her time

She didn't need to ask

Was I a suicidal psychopath

She's just a girl

She's a bomb

She's just a girl

She's a bomb

Consumed

There was a beautiful white horse

I saw on a dream stage

He had a snake the size of a sewer pipe

Livin' in his rib cage

I felt like a pickled priest

Who was being flambed

You've got me requisitioned blondie

She's just a girl

She's a bomb

I'm happy

She's a bomb

I'm ecstatic

Just a girl, just a girl

Just a girl, just a girl

Just a girl, just a girl

Just a girl

Look into the face of a child

Measure how long you smiled

Before the mem'ry claimed

How long would children remain

How long could children remain

Athena

You picked me up by my lapels

And screamed "leave her"

I felt like waking up in heaven

On an empty meter

And now you're stuck

With a castrated leader

And I hate the creep

I didn't mean that

She's a bomb

I just said it

She's a bomb

Please She's a bomb

Athena

I had no idea how much I need her

My life has been so settled

And she's the reason

Just one word from her

And my troubles are long gone

Ooh but I get along

She's just a girl

She's a bomb

She's just a girl

She's a bomb
