Foretoken - The Labors Lyrics



Foretoken - The Labors Lyrics




I arrived in somber mire swallowed by miasma so vile
Goaded out, the poison clouds poured from each of its nine mouths
Battle raged, hammered a head, was unfazed, two replaced damage
Scheme devised, an order defined, hacked and cut, wounds cauterized
Slain Nemea's beast, lion slain, in less than thirty days, so sacrifice wasn't made
Now wearing its mystic pelt, no blade, spear, nor arrow be felt
Killed Lerna's curse, hydra killed, careful to avoid its breath, a noxious threat
Now wielding its deadly blood no man, monster, mystery shielded murderous!
I was born Zeus' pride, Hera's scorn, failed infanticide
She didn't relent, aimed abhorrence, my family forever silenced
Madness gone, they all had died, blood on my arms, was horrified
Penance moored, well-being restored, if twelve labors, could be conquered
Slain Nemea's beast, lion slain, in less than thirty days, so sacrifice wasn't made
Now wearing its mystic pelt, no blade, spear, nor arrow be felt
Killed Lerna's curse, hydra killed, careful to avoid its breath, a noxious threat
Now wielding its deadly blood no man, monster, mystery shielded murderous!
With this my expiation ends!
This three-headed hound is nothing to me
Slain Nemea's beast, lion slain, in less than thirty days, so sacrifice wasn't made
Now wearing its mystic pelt, no blade, spear, nor arrow be felt
Killed Lerna's curse, hydra killed, careful to avoid its breath, a noxious threat
Now wielding its deadly blood no man, monster, mystery shielded murderous!
