Orpheus
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.
Oh my heart had been aching
Since the day that I first laid eyes upon you
I knew you were the one
Since that day I have never been the same
Nobody every could turn me away
Our love had just begun
Then you opened up your heart to me
Oh I never thought our joy would ever come to an end
Till one day you were gone
Through the woods, no care in mind and you were so blind
Snake bit and you were gone
I will follow you down even through the gates of hell
I will save your soul
I will make you whole
I will not back down
I will shatter death's crown
I will bring you back to life
I will bring you back to life
Passing by ghosts and souls I made it to the underworld
My fire grew within
My next task a three headed monster and I made it past
I stood before the god of death
I will follow you down even through the gates of hell
I will save your soul
I will make you whole
I will not back down
I will shatter death's crown
I will bring you back to life
I will bring you back to life
I will follow you down even through the gates of hell
I will save your soul
I will make you whole
I will not back down
I will shatter death's crown
I will bring you back to life
