Em        Dsus2
In all my years of living

   C                                  Dsus2
It isn't very often that I get pissed off

         Em
I try to chill with the waves

    Dsus2                    C         Dsus2
But damn, you've crossed the line

Em            D
I've been so gracious

    C                        D
And yet, you hurt the son of mine

       Em         D                C               D
That's right, the cyclops you made blind, is mine

I'm left without a choice

D
And without a doubt

Em                                            D
Guess the pack of wolves is swimming with the shark now

I've gotta make you bleed

I need to see you drown

[Verse 2]
Em
You are the worse kind of good

             C   Dsus2    Em
Cause you're not even great

Em
A Greek who reeks of false righteousness

C           Dsus2 Em
That's what I hate

          C
Cause you fight to save lives

          D                          Em
But won't kill and don't get the job done

           C                              D
I mean you totally could have avoided all this

Had you just killed my son

Em
But no
[Pre-Chorus]

You are far too nice

C
You reveal your name

D
Then you let him live

Em                                   D
Unlike you I've got no mercy left to give cause
[Chorus]

Ruthlessness is mercy upon ourselves

Em                    D
Ruthlessness is mercy upon ourselves

C               D             Em
Ruthlessness is mercy upon ourselves

Em

[Bridge]

And now it is finally time

   C
To say goodbye

Am
Today, you die

C                      Em
Unless, of course, you apologize

    Am
For my son's pain

    B
And all his cries

Em            D
Poseidon, we meant no harm

   C                Am
We only hurt him to disarm him

   C                Em
We took no pleasure in his pain

   Am          B
We only wanted to escape

    C            Em
The line between naïveté and

When does a ripple become a tidal wave?

            D                C
Forty three left under your command

          D            Em        D
When does man become a monster?

Em         D       C
I am your darkest moment

    Am            C            Am   D
