lyrics

As long as blood flows through my veins, my will won’t falter me
My call goes out to all the gods, wilt thou hear my humblest plea?

I kneel down on the ground
My hands firmly beating the dirt
Let my cries find your mind
Grant me the audience I deserve

Hèn oîda hóti oudèn oîda
I now turn to thee
Desperate and forlorn
Hades, will you answer me?

[Hades:]
I wish not yet to see you
Nor speak to you negligible speck
Be gone from my sight now
Until Charon brings you back

No
Thanatos
I call upon you

[Thanatos:]
Who dares to stand before me, a frail and dying man
Idle hope for salvation, offering you that I can’t
– You are death personified
Yet fate lies not with me
– I feel the coming of my demise
Seek the Moirai three

[Moirai:]
We do not care for any sense of purpose
Not for the living, not for the dead
All life simply must abide to us
To the spinning and cutting of the thread

I will not
No

[Moirai:]
This perseverance in your asking
You fear the truth and embrace the lie
This dreaded fate that has been given us
Share the curse of never ending life
You want to live forever?
Watch the world die before your eyes?
A rare exception to grant your wishes?
Prolong your suffering till the end of time? Fine!
