    Idk I could see this song being about the fates but I also think it could be about the Orestis, either Clytemnestra, Elektra, or Orestes. I love this song though ❤❤❤❤

    Lyrics for me:
    Mmm
    I had a dream last week, lying on the ground like a piece of meat
    Rotting on a sidewalk somewhere, people would stop to just stare
    Had the vultures circling, I thought, at first, they were worshipping
    Came to the altar prepared, hounds with the canine teeth bared
    I've let them give me life, then they take it away
    I feed myself on everything they've got to say
    What would happen if I left them hanging one day?
    Write the scripture, take the scissors, cut the cord
    Cord, cut the cord
    Uh, cut the cord
    Pretty young thing, until you're not
    Pretty young thing, until you rot
    Then you're stranded, branded, panicked, frantic
    Terrified of turning rancid, 'cause a pretty young thing's as good as gone
    I'm holding on for life, it tethers and it sways
    I feed myself on everything they've got to say
    What would happen if I left them hanging one day?
    Write the scripture, take the scissors, cut the cord
    Cut the cord
    Uh, cut the cord
    (The secret to their beauty is a scary truth)
    Cut the cord
    Uh (Is a scary truth)
    Cut the cord
    The secret to their beauty is a scary truth
    They'll drain you dry and make fountains of your youth
    The secret to their beauty is a scary truth
    They'll drain you dry (make you cry) and make fountains of your youth
    The secret to their beauty is a scary truth
    They'll drain you dry and make fountains of your youth
    The secret to their beauty is a scary truth
    They'll drain you dry (make you cry) and make fountains of your youth

    Is this inspired by Ariadne? Because she gave Theseus a spool of thread for the labyrinth?

    At first I thought this song was based on the fates, I'm not sure now

    I think this song is either about Ariadne (also why is there a d in there ? Do you pronounce the d in English ? It doesn’t make sense) and thinking If she should cut the red string that guided Theseus in the Labyrinth, or about her family (since it’s "they"). Maybe the fates, though Ariane (I’ve abandoned the d) is more likely
