Antigone

about

Dark ambient folk.

lyrics

I will mourn for a man dropped down dead in the winds by want of a siege
For I fear the wandering soul, the wandering eye heaven knows what he can see
Who amongst us has not sinned?
It runs thick like the blood on golden pins
After truths hide away from all clarity
And the black trickster ego, it runs free

Oh can you hear me through the stone, the catacomb?
And oh is it enough just to be on my own?
I know, I’m the only woman who said ‘no’
But damned if I were to let him go, let him choke

Overlooked by the stars, like the men, piercing the Theban night
I led his procession, brought the fire to the pyre, prayed, did my crime
I was nothing better than a convict
For the king, for his legions and the counterfeit
For the misery imposed by the mountains
For the men, for the brothers to protect their own skin
