Old Wounds

Lyrics

[APOLLO] Calliope, I'm listening now Tell us what end you were doomed to [PERSEPHONE] Calliope, blinded by fire What match did you strike that consumed you? [APOLLO] How could you blame her? What could she have done to earn such a fate? You are blinded! [PERSEPHONE] God of the Sun, hides from his own eyes! What would you know about fate? [APOLLO] You say that you knew her, she was family to us Yet you don't hesitate to accuse her Oh Queen without a throne, go bitter with fury Not everyone seeks to betray you! [GRACE, spoken] Stop this! (sung) Every action comes with a cost [APOLLO] Then who could she have crossed... and lost to? [PERSEPHONE] Apollo, your help is not needed here Go ahead and abandon another Muse! [APOLLO] How could you throw that gauntlet at me? Could your heart shrivel any further? [PERSEPHONE & APOLLO] You abandoned me to a terrible fate! (I've a terrible fate...) You replay your injuries 'til it's too late (It's far too late) You know how far I bent before I snapped! (I am trapped...) [PERSEPHONE & APOLLO] This is not about you! [APOLLO, spoken] Enough! This helps no-one! [PERSEPHONE, spoken] There he is - God of the Sun! [GRACE] Apollo, for my sake, take a deep breath I need your help, not your anger These old wounds, they have you paralyzed Calliope would want more from you [APOLLO, spoken] She wanted so much more [PERSEPHONE, spoken] She is gone Follow him, or stay
