And they pronounced

That a child was born long ago

Hear me now…

You demigods

Either lift me up or let me burn

Sorrow…

Sorrow now

(We turn the other way)

Sorrow…

Sorrow now

(We turn the other way)

Didn’t you want to run?

Didn’t you want out?

Death shall come to the child in me

Did you want to know?

Or did you want the lie?

A long goodbye to what we had

Shall we renounce…

From where we’ve come…

And who we were?

You’ll hear me now, you demigods

Either let me go or put me in the dirt

Sorrow…

Sorrow now

(We turn the other way)

Sorrow…

Sorrow now

(We turn the other way)

(Turn the other way)

Luckless child

Born still

Lay your weary head down

Loveless child

Burden of many

May they bury you deep

Loveless child

Burden of many

Loveless child

Bury you deep
