The Garden of Persephone Lyrics

In a dark world the sun never shines
A king grows weary of a life alone
Horses ride from the fire that flows
A bride is stolen, never to return home

Winter comes and the earth it withers
The sky grows dark and the wind starts to call
Life to death, cold chills to the bone
When the snow flies the last rose of summer falls

Daughter of Olympus
Taken from her home
Down to the depths of the underworld
Shadow kingdom, a home she doesn't know
The only life here is this garden of tears

There go the loves that wither
The old loves with weary wings
Dead dreams of days long forsaken
From hope and fear set free
This lonely tired river
Winds somewhere safe to sea

No star or sun shall waken
They sleep in eternal night
Only when she's free again
All dead years return to light
