Lyrics
King ov Lapithes
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Despite his fall in the abyss of turmoil, despite his eternal banishment
He was meanwhile in the ancient days a worthy figure, a worthy king
Son of Phlégyas, Thessaly was in domain.
He Defended his honnour & conquered several lands
But as a too proud lord his own interests prevailed.
Brandishing his sword he spread hails
Outside the closed golden gate of Olympius,
the thessalian figure is waiting for his fate
Fornication with Néphélé drove himself to gehenna
considered as a betrayer, as a keeper of hate
A keeper of hate
Claiming he 'd love & cherish his beloved bride,
he'd give her presents & be close to her 'til he dies
Just after the wedding, he's broken his promises.
Dia, in tears, was witness to Ixion's infidelities
In anger, Deionnée confiscate the king's horses
but he didn't suspect him of a terrible revenge
Soon, he was invited to a reconciliation meal
and in a good mood they feasted fittingly
But as soon as Deionnée approaches a well Ixion,
in an underhand way, pushed him into
Dia's father perished, immolated Ixion's time ran out�.
Son of Phlégyas, Thessaly was in domain.
He Defended his honnour & conquered several lands
But as a too proud lord his own interests prevailed.
Brandishing his sword he spread hails
Outside the closed golden gate of Olympius,
the thessalian figure is waiting for his fate
Fornication with Néphélé drove himself to gehenna
considered as a betrayer, as a keeper of hate
Born with hatred in veins, born with venom in flesh,
born to seduce, born to betray
