"Sisyphus" lyrics
"Sisyphus"
Hand skinned raw
Feet black and blue (Black and blue)
Pushing past the fear of what I'd lose
I know this trick a little too well
Made it up to Heaven just to plunge back to Hell
Vines clinging to the bars of my cell
Made it up to Heaven just to plunge back to Hell
Rise and there will always be a fall
Parting through the world 'til you're up against a wall
Drown at sea 'til you're grasping at sand
When the stone rolls, just push it up again
And again, and again, and again, and again
And again, and again, and again, oh
And again, and again, and again, and again
And again, and again, and again
Seasons change, but they'll come back
As Helios sleeps, Nyx paints the sky black (Black, black, black)
When Pompeii turns meadows into ash
Flowers find a way through concrete cracks
I know this trick a little too well
Made it up to Heaven just to plunge back to Hell
Vines clinging to the bars of my cell
Made it up to Heaven just to plunge back to Hell
Rise and there will always be a fall
Parting through the world 'til you're up against a wall
Drown at sea 'til you're grasping at sand
When the stone rolls, just push it up again
And again, and again, and again, and again
And again, and again, and again, oh
And again, and again, and again, and again
And again, and again, and again
And you will bleed and you will break
With every step, you bare the weight
An uphill battle with no escape
It's not just you, we share this fate
Rise and there will always be a fall
Parting through the world 'til you're up against a wall
Drown at sea 'til you're grasping at sand
When the stone rolls, just push it up again
And again, and again, and again, and again
And again, and again, and again, oh
And again, and again, and again, and again
And again, and again, and again

Au/Ra - "High Fantasy" My hand
I hold the key
Unlock the door and see
A city in the sky
Worldbuilding in my mind
The blade upon my back
An emerald in the black
Under the moonlight
I am wide-eyed
I blur reality
High, high,...
Paris Paloma - "hunter" What was it that stayed my hand then?
With dagger held unsheathed
Blade pointing in its side
I'd been set upon by a predator
It was just looking for a meal
I saw ribs and fearful eyes
What is it...
Chxrlotte - "Gloomy June" The world outside my room 's not a world I can face
Cause I'm out of my head and have been for days

I said the timing wasn't right, but we know that that's a cop-out
Even if the Fates decide, I would still tell you "not now"
Now, things...

Only a cat of a different coat, that's all the truth I know

Mine are long and...
