Praeludium - The Way Is Shut

Praeludium - The Way Is Shut Tube. Duration : 4.95 Mins.


The Way Is Shut, by Praeludium Lyrics : The Way Is Shut CHARON "The lyre payed his passage once, but the spell is now hence..." Son of Calliope, thou must leave here thy quest; Turn around, light is shining behind the door... ORPHEUS All thou hast seen, thou loneliest of travellers Only love not... CHARON Love stands for living, there's no sense in thy request; Tell me, where can thou see life in this black moor... ORPHEUS Oh, that my only flaw in life was my love! Could I have endured but a moment... But now she's gone! BOTH Brightest light in golden meadows Eurydice, a source of sorrows But this black kingdom is a dead end... ORPHEUS Fate has now awarded me with Nemesis's kiss The art of my master took me but half the way... CHARON This realm is not for mortals Or subjects of time! This trip hast taught thee, if nothing else Of the power of fate! HADES Thou hast broken thy promise, disciple of Apollo... ORPHEUS Holy demon! Son of Chronos, please have mercy! HADES Goooooo... ORPHEUS It seems all the Moirae have, for once, Reached an agreement; Could it then be thy wish To see me by thy side? Thanatos, would thou heed a prayer? Here is a soul that cometh to thee with open arms... How could I find joy again in life All strings are broken... Heed me! Dark Lords! I am not imploring you by a sin This is but the elegy of a cloven soul... CHARON Ashamed I am that for thy verse I took thee across! Until thou bring the gifted obole I shall not let thee pass! ORPHEUS Lifeless ...
