Ariadne Lyrics


I left their voices echoing,

Through the halls of this maze

I left their eyes staring,

with the ruin they portray

This muffled rage within me,

I’m born of witch and beast

Daedalus' craft now binds me,

An ornate, desolate cage

Oh brother I feel for you,

but cannot save your soul

save my soul

Our mother the same

and father to blame

But what have you become?

What have I become

I'm crying and screaming

but my words are not heard

by the sovereign of this land

So with a silken string,

into your house I’ll bring

my savior, my truth, my love

my ruin, my bane, my scourge

Wielding sword and blind ambition

He arrives

to my fleeting final hour

I awake, this night

It has been done…

We sailed away at night

I opened my eyes to see your light

All I find is this empty space,

without reason

I haste myself outside

My feet running, my breath up high

My love, I’m breaking

Your name I scream out loud,

inside I’m crying

It's a part of me

that's dying on this shore

Your name I scream out loud,

inside I’m crying

It's a part of me

that's dying on this shore

On this shore, abandoned, alone

The beast is slain

victory awaits

Yet the will of the gods,

you have underestimated

Horizons clear,

Ships disappear, blackened clouds

their ships appear, blackened sails,

drawing near

My love from my side is torn,

my son from my side is torn,

no more grief, I will live on!

Relentless grief, I can't live on
