I love you all to the moon and back :)
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 ❤❤❤❤
Prometheus
Such an experience being this early. Love this song!
this sounds so cool with the sound effects and i love the meaning. it’s going to be so hard to pick a favorite song
This song is a MASTERPIECE
I think I might have been nlst excited for this one!!!!❤
I looooove this song, the slowed part at the end is perfect🥰🥰
that (drop? key change? around the one minute mark) actually made my jaw drop.
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
Ohhhh! This is such an experience as a song!
WELL NOW I DON'T KNOW WHICH ONE IS MY FAVORITE
Same😂
They're all so good!
This song is so perfect for a scenario where Ariadne takes revenge on Theseus
It’s amazing 🤩 ❤
this song is so pretty
I think I just transcended through three dimensions while listening to this
WHO DID YOU SACRIFICE TO MAKE THE MUSIC IN THIS SONG?!
its so addicting your so talented omg ❤️❤️❤️
This is really cool!
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
