Heavy and hard is the heart of the king |
| [00:17.770] |
King of iron, king of steel |
| [00:22.800] |
The heart of the king loves everything |
| [00:26.880] |
Like the hammer loves the nail |
| [00:33.430] |
But the heart of a man is a simple one |
| [00:38.320] |
Small and soft, flesh and blood |
| [00:43.870] |
And all that it loves is a woman |
| [00:49.800] |
A woman is all that it loves |
| [00:53.840] |
And Hades is king of the scythe and the sword |
| [00:59.540] |
He covers the world in the color of rust |
| [01:05.090] |
He scrapes the sky and scars the earth |
| [01:09.689] |
And he comes down heavy and hard on us |
| [01:15.040] |
But even that hardest of hearts unhardened |
| [01:20.810] |
Suddenly, when he saw her there |
| [01:26.620] |
Persephone in her mother’s garden |
| [01:30.870] |
Sun on her shoulders, wind in her hair |
| [01:36.140] |
The smell of the flowers she held in her hand |
| [01:41.360] |
And the pollen that fell from her fingertips |
| [01:46.650] |
And suddenly Hades was only a man |
| [01:53.080] |
With a taste of nectar upon his lips, singing: |
| [01:57.420] |
La la la la la la la… |
