The eyes that watched people die The bare arms that manned battleships The legs that walked a thousand miles The heart that beats with vigor for one The face that launched a thousand ships The mind that devises ten thousand plans The wit that confuses men of fame The sarcasm that drowns the pain The fierceness that breaks the vibranium chain The face that launched a thousand ships A token for her name A coupon for her fame A word for her pain A comment for her gain The face that launched a thousand ships Killed her sanity To salvage her dignity Faked her content Disguised her grunts The face that launched a thousand ships A dime for her thoughts made me the richest person in the world A star for her accomplishments brought the universe to my abode A ***** for her happiness, left me uninjured The face that launched a thousand ships ~Pacific Wolf

The Face That Launched a Thousand Ships
The eyes that watched people die The bare arms that manned battleships The legs that walked a thousand miles The heart that beats with vigor for one The face that launched a thousand ships The mind that devises ten thousand plans The wit that confuses men of fame The sarcasm that drowns the pain The fierceness that breaks the vibranium chain The face that launched a thousand ships A token for her name A coupon for her fame A word for her pain A comment for her gain The face that launched a thousand ships Killed her sanity To salvage her dignity Faked her content Disguised her grunts The face that launched a thousand ships A dime for her thoughts made me the richest person in the world A star for her accomplishments brought the universe to my abode A ***** for her happiness, left me uninjured The face that launched a thousand ships ~Pacific Wolf
