demeter’s threnody - aidoneus lyrics

Loading...

demeter:
you barely stopped to close the door
left your footprints in the mud
and crumpled notes in the drawer

did you ever stop to wonder
what’ll happen when the thunder
starts comin’ to stay
and you’re still runnin away?

has the apple fallen far?
did the grain split from its stalk?
has the flower been uprooted?
did a chip break off the block?

after all i’ve worked to grow
is it reaping what you sow
when the effort’s not enough to make
you hesitate to go?

did you look before you crossed the road?
did you ever think before you spoke?
did you know my heart before it broke?
did you mean to, did you know?

well, i have nothing left to give
cause until i see your face
i’ll have to wait to live
let the harvest start to wither
let my heart begin to bitter
as the winter stays
and you’re still runnin’ away

has the apple fallen far?
has the grain split from its stalk?
has the flower been uprooted?
did a chip break off the block?

did you think to say goodbye?
did you even stop to try?
when you left me in the ruins
of a truth i can’t deny

did you look before you crossed the road?
did you ever think before you spoke?
did you know my heart before it broke?
did you mean to, did you know?

why? (repeated)

chorus underneath:
has the apple fallen far?
did the grain split from its stalk?
has the flower been uprooted?
did a chip break off the block?
after all i’ve worked to grow
is it reaping what you sow
when the effort’s not enough to make
you hesitate to—

demeter:
why?
