King ov Lapithes Lyrics


(Music : ThorK / Lyrics : ThorK)

Despite his fall in the abyss of turmoil, despite his eternal banishment

He was meanwhile in the ancient days a worthy figure, a worthy king

Son of Phlégyas, Thessaly was in domain.

He Defended his honnour & conquered several lands

But as a too proud lord his own interests prevailed.

Brandishing his sword he spread hails

Outside the closed golden gate of Olympius,

the  thessalian figure is waiting for his fate

Fornication with Néphélé drove himself to gehenna

considered as a betrayer, as a keeper of hate

A keeper of hate

Claiming he 'd love & cherish his beloved bride,

he'd give her presents & be close to her 'til he dies

Just after the wedding, he's broken his promises.

Dia, in tears, was witness to Ixion's infidelities

In anger, Deionnée confiscate the king's horses

but he didn't suspect him of a terrible revenge

Soon, he was invited to a reconciliation meal

and in a good mood they feasted fittingly

But as soon as Deionnée approaches a well Ixion,

in an underhand way, pushed him into

Dia's father perished, immolated Ixion's time ran out...

Son of Phlégyas, Thessaly was in domain.

He Defended his honnour & conquered several lands

But as a too proud lord his own interests prevailed.

Brandishing his sword he spread hails

Outside the closed golden gate of Olympius,

the  thessalian figure is waiting for his fate

Fornication with Néphélé drove himself to gehenna

considered as a betrayer, as a keeper of hate

Born with hatred in veins, born with venom in flesh,

born to seduce, born to betray
