    Lyrics -
    Evening rises, darkness threatens to engulf us all
    But there's a moon above it's shining and I think I hear a call
    It's just a whisper through the trees, my ears can hardly make it out
    But I can hear it in my heart, vibrating strong as if she shouts
    Oh Ariadne, I am coming, I just need to work this maze inside my head
    I came here like you asked, I killed the beast, that part of me is dead
    Oh Ariadne, I just need to work this maze inside my head
    If only I'd have listened to you when you offered me that thread
    Everything is quiet and I'm not exactly sure
    If it really was your voice I heard or maybe it's a door
    That's closing up some hero's back, on his track to be a man
    Can it be that all us heroes have a path but not a plan?
    Oh Ariadne, I'm coming, I just need to work this maze inside my mind
    I wish I had that string, it's so damn dark, I think I'm going blind
    Oh Ariadne, I just need to work this maze inside my mind
    For the life of me I don't remember what I came to find
    Now tell me princess are you strolling through your sacred grove?
    And is the moon still shining? You're the only thing I'm thinking of
    The sword you gave me, it was heavy, I just had to lay it down
    It's funny how defenseless I can feel here when there's nobody around
    Oh Ariadne, I'm coming, I just need to work this maze inside my heart
    I was blind, I thought you'd bind me, but you offered me a chart
    Oh Ariadne, I just need to work this maze inside my heart
    If I'd known that you could guide me, I'd have listened from the start
    Somewhere up there midnight strikes, I think I hear the fall
    Of little drops of water, magnified against the barren wall
    It's more a feeling than a substance, but there's nobody around
    And when I'm in here all alone, it's just enough to let me drown
    Oh Ariadne, I was coming, but I failed you in this labyrinth of my past
    Oh Ariadne, let me sing you, and we'll make each other last
    Oh Ariadne, I have failed you in this labyrinth of my past
    Oh Ariadne, let me sing you, and we'll make each other last

    Asaf told the story behind it and he explains, “Theseus the hero, one of the four great heroes going to slay the minotaur inside the Labyrinth and Ariadne the princess helping him by giving him a ball of yarn so he would tie it to the entrance and find his way out again after he defeated the beast. I often wondered what would happen if he didn’t take that ball of yarn. If he was too proud, too broken…too me…to except that gift…too suspecting. He would be stuck there…hearing her footsteps as she dances above that Labyrinth waiting for him.”
    what makes the song so moving is the way the chorus progresses. It doesn’t repeat but it builds. He starts with, “Oh Ariadne, I am coming, I just need to work this maze inside my head.” Then, he changes it from “inside my head” to “inside my mind” to “inside my heart” and as he goes through the song the character slowly gives up. He abandons Ariadne. That’s what makes it so sad. He isn’t the triumphant hero, he was too proud to accept her help and has to live forever with his mistake.
    Oh Ariadne, I was coming, but I failed you in this labyrinth of my past
    Oh Ariadne, let me sing you, and we’ll make each other last

    I cannot listen to this song without crying. Like, ever. The emotion is so terribly raw, and the musician is laying himself completely naked before our eyes. I love how under produced it is, and Avidan allows us to hear the breaks in his voice, and the holes in his soul. This song is a gift, and a candid glimpse of a conversation between a man and a goddess.

      The thread is yours to weave, as is the monster and the maze… learn the subtle steps of the dance and show yourself the way out.

    Been in a kind of depression and finally healing after several months. Those words perfectly express what I'd have liked to tell to the person I loved and that I lost. I wanted to come back all the time, but I couldn't, I needed to work the maze inside my head first. I know I should have listened to you before and be guided by you, but I didn't. And unfortunately, despite trying, I never came back as I got stuck in the labyrinth of my past. I am crying like a baby listening to this lyrics but now they are tears of joy as I know I am finally healed and found my way out from the labyrinth. Whoever is out there in a difficult moment, just please trust that everything will be good. Learn to shut up your thoughts as they are not the reality, change your "internal software" or maze by learning to meditate and do that daily. Spend time with nature, in silence just observing its perfection. don't judge or get affected by others' judgement, give what you'd like to receive. Become the observer, your observer, and whenever a negative thought shows up, you can decide it to remove it within seconds and put your attention where it deserves to be and in what makes feel fulfilment. Trust the universe, god, your spirit or whoever you believe in. I did it, you will do it. Blessings

    I must have heard it more than 1000 times since I watched that "Dark" episode, about two months ago, and still feel emotional overload each time I listen to it!
    Loved the artist from the beginning (about a decade, we love him here in Greece), many songs of his are on my daily playlist, but there are no words to describe this song.
    I think it should be tought in schools, along with the story of Thisseas and Ariadne, since it is based in greek mythology.
    Did a translate of the lyrics for my mom, who is 71 years old and doesn't speak english and she said "He is awesome, he knows this story better than most of us do!".
    Thank you so much for this masterpiece, it is hauntingly beautiful!

    "Theseus volunteered to join the band of youths who were to be sacrificed in the labyrinth. He traveled to Crete, and as soon as he arrived Ariadne, King Minos' daughter, fell in love with him. She offered to help him conquer the labyrinth and kill the minotaur if he would marry her and take her away from Crete. He agreed. Ariadne gave him a ball of red thread, and Theseus unrolled it as he penetrated the labyrinth, which allowed him to find his way back out. He found the minotaur deep in the recesses of the labyrinth, killed it with his sword, and followed the thread back to the entrance.
    Theseus took Ariadne away from Crete, but then forsake his promise to marry her by abandoning her as she sleeps on the beach of the island of Naxos. She thinks she is about to die, that this is the end of her story, but she is discovered there by the god Dionysus, who falls in love with her and makes her his wife, and was the only husband among the Greek gods to remain faithful to his wife."
    This song is about a man's deepest regrets....

  • @mayankagarawal6486
    @mayankagarawal6486 2 года назад +3

    for my reff.. copied comment ---Asaf told the story behind it and he explains, “Theseus the hero, one of the four great heroes going to slay the minotaur inside the Labyrinth and Ariadne the princess helping him by giving him a ball of yarn so he would tie it to the entrance and find his way out again after he defeated the beast. I often wondered what would happen if he didn’t take that ball of yarn. If he was too proud, too broken…too me…to except that gift…too suspecting. He would be stuck there…hearing her footsteps as she dances above that Labyrinth waiting for him.”
    what makes the song so moving is the way the chorus progresses. It doesn’t repeat but it builds. He starts with, “Oh Ariadne, I am coming, I just need to work this maze inside my head.” Then, he changes it from “inside my head” to “inside my mind” to “inside my heart” and as he goes through the song the character slowly gives up. He abandons Ariadne. That’s what makes it so sad. He isn’t the triumphant hero, he was too proud to accept her help and has to live forever with his mistake.
    Oh Ariadne, I was coming, but I failed you in this labyrinth of my past
    Oh Ariadne, let me sing you, and we’ll make each other last

    In concert, Asaf Avidan explained that this song grew out of the idea that, unlike in the myth, Theseus failed to take the ball of thread to find his way out of the maze. Ariadne also given him a sword, that in the song is too heavy so he drops it. Martha on stage in her role as Ariadne is so incredibly painful to watch. And this music cuts to the heart. What a stunning actress!

Even when we are capable to leave or flee from a problem that disturbed us in the past (the labyrinth), if we don't heal that wound it will always follow us, like a maze inside our head, in our mind, in our heart... The burden is so heavy, to the point of not allowing us our own happiness, blocking whoever wants to enter in our life and live forever with that regret.
