Antigone Songtext
Behold crossing through the city gates
Beyond walls too narrow for her fate
Comes Antigone, as told by
These old rhymes
A brother that they chose to disregard
And nothing more than an offended heart
She doesn't fear to defy
Decrees nor crimes
Beyond walls too narrow for her fate
Comes Antigone, as told by
These old rhymes
A brother that they chose to disregard
And nothing more than an offended heart
She doesn't fear to defy
Decrees nor crimes
No mourning for this deceased
Soon the prey of ravenous beasts
Excruciating sight of flesh
Mundane frailty is all that is left
An echo of these noble lines
One more timе
Honor this mortal corpse
A veil of dust on the dеad one
Hades wants equal laws
Two of us whom Death has won
Summon the inner voice
The city of stone and order
Love is the daemon's choice
Undergoes a tremor
Defiance worthy of praise
Sent her alive to the grave
An ideal of fortitude
The one who never bends
Feeds its heart of solitude
Is either way condemned
Such are the radical deeds
And their tragic outcomes
Ethical beacons we need
At the forefront
A glimpse of the light that still shines
Across time
Honor this mortal corpse
A veil of dust on the dead one
Hades wants equal laws
Two of us whom Death has won
Summon the inner voice
The city of stone and order
Love is the daemon's choice
Undergoes a tremor
We don't know that we’re blind
Nor the harm that we inflict
Without great figures by our side
To guide us on this journey
Soon the prey of ravenous beasts
Excruciating sight of flesh
Mundane frailty is all that is left
An echo of these noble lines
One more timе
Honor this mortal corpse
A veil of dust on the dеad one
Hades wants equal laws
Two of us whom Death has won
Summon the inner voice
The city of stone and order
Love is the daemon's choice
Undergoes a tremor
Defiance worthy of praise
Sent her alive to the grave
An ideal of fortitude
The one who never bends
Feeds its heart of solitude
Is either way condemned
Such are the radical deeds
And their tragic outcomes
Ethical beacons we need
At the forefront
A glimpse of the light that still shines
Across time
Honor this mortal corpse
A veil of dust on the dead one
Hades wants equal laws
Two of us whom Death has won
Summon the inner voice
The city of stone and order
Love is the daemon's choice
Undergoes a tremor
We don't know that we’re blind
Nor the harm that we inflict
Without great figures by our side
To guide us on this journey
