about

Based on the myth of Persephone in the underworld. One story we did not experience firsthand

lyrics

Winter shadows climb through empty windows
It’s another day of gray; the sun is nowhere to be seen
I close my eyes and wish the clouds away,
But wishing is never what it seems…

Bare trees – the leaves are a long time gone.
Barren arms up to the sky, hope to sleep but not to die
I see my breath hang in the air
Summer’s mother cries out in despair:

“I will wait. I will wait
Six months or forever,
Whatever is your fate, I will wait…

White dusty hills, a frosty patch of frozen ground.
I trace my footsteps in the snow to a secret place I know
Open to another world
The place of darkness harkens to the girl.

I will wait. I will wait
Six months or forever,
Whatever is your fate, I will wait…

Moving into the darkness from which there’s no return
I will call you back again and we will watch the season’s turn.

Taste forbidden fruit: the sweetness of the unforeseen.
Hunger comes in many ways – sated by a stranger’s gaze
Missing in the great unknown,
Sitting on the dead king’s throne.

I will wait. I will wait
Six months or forever,
Whatever is your fate, I will wait…
