    The upbeat tone of the song with the depressed tone throughout the story if you know how it ends really makes a crazy contrast of emotion while listening.

      I think for me it really more is the music is showing his determination and how he powered through. He needed to stay upbeat to not be trapped in the underworld forever

    Oh my heart had been aching since the day that I first laid eyes upon you
    I knew you were the one
    Since that day I have never been the same nobody every could turn me away
    Our love had just begun
    Then you opened up your heart to me
    Oh I never thought our joy would ever come to an end
    Till one day you were gone
    Through the woods, no care in mind and you were so blind
    Snake bit and you were gone
    I will follow you down even through the gates of hell
    I will save your soul
    I will make you whole
    I will not back down
    I will shatter death's crown
    I will bring you back to life
    I will bring you back to life
    Passing by ghosts and souls I made it to the underworld
    My fire grew within
    My next task a three headed monster and I made it past
    I stood before the god of death
    I will follow you down even through the gates of hell
    I will save your soul
    I will make you whole
    I will not back down
    I will shatter death's crown
    I will bring you back to life
    I will bring you back to life
    I will follow you down even through the gates of hell
    I will save your soul
    I will make you whole
    I will not back down
    I will shatter death's crown
    I will bring you back to life

    This is a great song to depict what Orpheus did to get back to his lover Eurydice who died due to being bitten by a serpent. Although of course it's didn't tell the entire story. I think the song was an amazing attempt at trying to tell the story.
