A shade of terror Right before midnight He sent some guards to search for her Orpheus' soul was slowly drowning Into a pit of burning fear His love was lost
As he discovered Eurydice's sad fate A twisted thought went through his mind He sailed to north following the coast of The Ionic Sea heading for the Dark river Styx
Enchanting Charon Orpheus reached Those shores full of shades In the Reign of the damned By his golden lyre He brought peace for a while
With the Queen of Hades A deal was made A new hope for his bride
The nymph could return Back to life again But on the path that leads to light Orpheus must not take a single look at her Or she'd belong to death's Realm Forevermore
When the warm rays of the morning sun Broke the darkness of the cave For a moment he forgot the deal And he lost his beloved bride Again
