[orpheus]
back in the beginning
there used to be a woman and a man
i don’t know how their story ends
but that’s how it began

king of iron, king of steel
heavy and hard is the heart of a king
hear how it pounds like a hammer and nail
see how he rails against everything

but even that hardest of hearts unhardened
suddenly, when he saw her there
lady persephone walking the garden
sun on her shoulders, wind in her hair

the smell of the flowers she held in her hand
and the pollen that fell from her fingertips
and suddenly hades was only a man
with his hat in his hand and a song on his lips

and he didn’t know how
and he didn’t know why
but he knew that he wanted to take her home
when he saw her alone there, against the sky
it was like she was someone always ‘lone

and the sun rose and it fell on his chest when he held her
he felt the earth moving without (?)
and there were no words for the way that he felt
so he opened his mouth, and started to sing:
la la la la la la la…
la la la la la la la…
la la la la la la la…

[orpheus and company]
la la la la la la la…

[orpheus]
and what has become of the heart of that man
now that the man is king?
what has become of the heart of that man
now that he has everything?

the more he has, the more he holds
the greater the weight of the world on his shoulders
see how he labors beneath that load
afraid to look up, and afraid to let go
so he keeps his head low, and he keeps his back bending
he’s grown so afraid that he’ll lose what he owns
but what he doesn’t know is that what he’s defending
is already gone

where is the treasure inside your chest?
where is your pleasure? where is your youth?
where is the man with his hat in his hands?
who stands in the garden with nothing to lose, singing:
la la la la la la la…

[hades]
la la la la la la la…

[orpheus]
la la la la la la la…

[both]
la la la la la la la…
