Mitera 01:51
Mitera Nobody holds you so close Nobody knows you so well Nobody breathes in your breaths You were a single cell Nobody fears for your life when it's too early to tell Nobody wails in your death It is a sacred hell Tell me, where will you hide? When the fates descend to find their terrible feast? Oh my child, how I tried! Now I bare my breast inside the belly of the Beast Nobody knows you so well Nobody holds you this close It is a sacred hell And I know

Calling all divinities from every pantheon Zero visibility, can you help me? Appalling incivility Can you see our civil hands? Crawling instability Can you hear me? Calling all divinities, tell me, what do I do now? Following antiquity Does the story change? Does it stay the same? Do we speak her name? Do we speak her name? Do we speak her name? Elektra.

Someday 01:18
He is riding through the magic forest He is making every princess sigh Ridin' steady, but he's pickin' up x Noble steed and a ripplin' thigh Someday my prince will come Someday my prince will come He's is wielding every royal weapon He can help us save us from ourselves He's on a mission, he ain't givin' up x I never met him but I toast to his health Someday my prince will come Someday my prince will come

A storm, a storm is coming Consider this your warning A storm is coming, better gang way But no one listens to a word I say Cursed Cassandra I was in life Apollo cursed me when I wouldn't be his wife Snakes are slitherin' in my ear Tellin 'em truths they don't wanna hear No one's listening to their doom I carry secrets to my tomb A storm, a storm is coming Consider this your warning

Am I dreaming? Have the stars aligned? Is she scheming? Golden apples in our eyes You can see her ghost tonight There's a portal in the light And at least we reunite (ooh) And the winds are dying down Cuz the cursed wears a crown Must the systems all go down for you? Am I dreaming? Have the stars aligned? Is she scheming?

Don't let the bastards get you down x Don't let them, don't let them Push you around They hold you hold you back, they push you down The deck the deck is stacked, your dreams are drowned And you can't trust nobody, no one around Except yourself I know you feel broken, I feel broken, too You can't change the past, what can you do? Challenge what's verboten, tell the world the truth Liberate your sisters and you'll free yourself, too (Don't let the bastards get you down x) They hold you hold you back, they push you down The deck the deck is stacked, your dreams are drowned And you can't trust nobody, no one around Except yourself Accept yourself Accept yourself

Do you know of Persephone's fate? It will haunt me til the end of time He owned the tree and cursed the fruit that she ate Her youth and beauty were her only crime Now for months on end, he keeps her underground She belongs to Hades Earth and mother weep, but their hands are bound The Goddess mourns her baby Meet me Meet me, Mother (she was betrayed) Meet me, Mother (mother made a trade) Underground Meet me Meet me, Mother (betrayed x) Meet me, Mother Underground (see you in hell) When the spring it breaks the winter Will I see you again?
