Persephone Lyrics

Descend, through darkness, we pray

Passageways carved in mother’s grief

Hecate shows the way, she is our only hope

Calling her name in the dark

Where have you gone Persephone?

Demeter weeps in grief, she’s turned the land to stone

And we may never return again

Hades waits below

He wears a crown of ash and flame

His Queen is veiled and throned

What have you done to Persephone?

We pay Charon’s toll, the silver coin

And we cross the mighty river Styx

To the land of the dead

It is our only hope

There, Cerberus guards the gate

But we tame him with love and trust

To enter Hades realm, the ancient underworld

And we may never return again

From her throne she rose:

“I am Queen Persephone

I was never lost

I chose this throne and rule the night”
