The King of Thebes
I'm marching towards a world on fire, the Erinyes cackling
The daylight fades, the fates conspire and blow their kiss of death
The hissing women robed in black warn my end lies in my action
But rage crafts my return attack and the cosmos sucks me further in
Save me, I'll tear out my eyes
The King of Thebes going blind
The Furies cross seas in wingless flight
To eat me alive
Shadows can't hide a fallen man from a Roman seer or Scottish witch
Whether under red lights in Amsterdam or in a brothel in Berlin
They suck me dry, those steadfast demons, swallow black and invite my end
Blown off course and shipwrecked while the one I love burns, never avenged
They'll manifest their fearful art and envelop you in dark
They'll ride the wind and whisper your name, you cannot escape your fate
The daylight fades, the fates conspire and blow their kiss of death
The hissing women robed in black warn my end lies in my action
But rage crafts my return attack and the cosmos sucks me further in
Save me, I'll tear out my eyes
The King of Thebes going blind
The Furies cross seas in wingless flight
To eat me alive
Shadows can't hide a fallen man from a Roman seer or Scottish witch
Whether under red lights in Amsterdam or in a brothel in Berlin
They suck me dry, those steadfast demons, swallow black and invite my end
Blown off course and shipwrecked while the one I love burns, never avenged
They'll manifest their fearful art and envelop you in dark
They'll ride the wind and whisper your name, you cannot escape your fate
