Gone for Foolishness

Darkstar

 

 

Eurydice my love, a fatal bite

Enter Hades, as too Persephone

But death should not even separate us

For I will go down, to the dark dead world

To bring you back, to the bright, living world

But one condition the gods make to me

Look at Eurydice, as she follows

And she comes back as a ghost of the dead

I fly up, and she follows me I hope

But I am too tempted to look at her

She goes back... down, down, my Eurydice

Back in the living, I live with my lyre

The fool I acted, cost my love

My greatest blessing, gone for foolishness
