Lyrics
Oh oracle hear my inquiry
I need to know, will my beloved return to me?
She slipped through a crack into a viper's den
What will it take to sing to her again?
Maybe a song so beautiful
That the Furies will weep
As the hellhounds drift to sleep
Uphill I roll this boulder
Searching for you over my shoulder
Every time I pluck a string
It might cost me everything
Though the notion is arcane
The gods will know my pain
A thousand dismal lamentations
Won't stop us from becoming constellations
No heavenly melody
Can revoke this malady
Orchestrating a tragedy
With no exit strategy
Weaved within the loom of Fates
Charon awaits
The muses are crying
Even the sirens are dying
To hear a song so beautiful
That the Furies will weep
As the hellhounds drift to sleep
Uphill I roll this boulder
Searching for you over my shoulder
Every time I pluck a string
It might cost me everything
Though the notion is arcane
The gods will know my pain
A thousand dismal lamentations
Won't stop us from becoming constellations
No heavenly melody
Can revoke this malady
Can I guide her home without a fleeting glance?
Do I even stand a chance?
When the Meanads start to rip me apart
Will she find her way back to my heart?
