lyrics

Have you seen my Kore
I think she goes by Persephone now
Her radiance served her demise
The light attracted Hades' eyes

Have you seen my little girl
She was picking flowers when I heard her screaming
He took her to the underworld
And there he made persephone his stolen queen

I looked for days and weeks and months and years
I flooded out your crops with tears
When I found out what Zeus did I nearly flipped my lid
Cause he sold my little girl to the other side

I was so far gone
I just wanted my Persephone back
I brought the world into drought
Created famine in protest of the deal

Finally they sent for my sweet little girl
But she ate a pomegranate though she knew what would happen
If she ate while in the underworld
She could never fully come back to me
Lucky there was compromise
I get eight months with my light
That's why winter gets so dark
I miss my babe, I fall apart

She watches over my sleep
My guardian of dreams
My little Queen of the Dead
She'll guide you on your quest
When you go to visit the other side
