the ritual - red edition - austin wintory lyrics
[aphrodite]
we let them rise
we let it happen
we waited far too long
we thought we shouldn’t intervene
we were wrong
we were wrong
since the beginning, we were hidden
we held court from up above
t’was the golden age of reason
and i, the queen of love
but a plague of hate was spreading
and there werе vultures standing by
before wе fell to our knees begging
we fell from the sky
we let them rise
we let it happen
we waited far too long
we thought we shouldn’t intervene
we were wrong
we were wrong
our so*called brother ares
sold his soul forever more
he so loved the military
he became their dog of war
he denounced his loving family
and with mortal guns and greed
on a plate gladly delivered
everything that war*dogs need
he betrayed us and we let him
with their mortal souls long gone
we thought we were untouchable
we were wrong, we were wrong
i can feel we have the vigor of an idol coming in
be wary as they find you too and tear you limb from limb
torture you and spit at you, parade you in a square
i thought my life was over
then a god answered my prayer
the man that i ignored saved me when i fell
yes, the husband i abhorred rescued me from h*ll
i thought it was a joke when it was said to me
he struck a deal with our enemy’s enemy
made a secret weapon so my captors let me go
he gave up his freedom, leaving just a memory
and this love i’ll never know is what he gave to me
[grace]
i gotta say that i’m amazed i held my tongue for so long
not such a fan of this whole plan, but who’s to say that you’re wrong?
now, should a god erase a memory
when there’s no chance of changing history?
[crowd]
ch*ch*ch*change
[grace]
this guy who sacrificed his life so you could live in his place
wish he’d drop by, ’cause man i’d die to see the look on his face
you try to hide from your reality, but then come back with regularity
and if you notice a disparity, then what’s the meaning of his legacy?
[crowd]
everybody
[grace]
who gives a d*mn about your suffering?
[crowd]
everybody
[grace]
who wants to see you be yourself again?
[crowd]
everybody
[grace]
who feels your pain, in case you’re wondering?
[crowd]
everybody
[grace]
you got the time but it’s st*stuttering
[crowd]
everybody
[grace]
wants to see you fall in love
[aphrodite]
i can’t place your face, so let me give you a hand
an idol should embrace the things they don’t understand
and you don’t get it
my mind’s a falling city, buildings crumbling down
what is more the pity, all i hear is the sound
bombs blanketing the ground
a screaming so profound
and you want to play around
well, you offend
[crowd]
everybody
[aphrodite]
is insulted by your acrimony
[crowd]
everybody
[aphrodite]
want to wallow in my testimony
[crowd]
everybody
[aphrodite]
so who is ready for a ceremony?
[crowd]
everybody
[aphrodite]
i’ll be siding with the “everybodies”!
[crowd]
everybody
[crowd & grace]
wants to see you fall in love
[eros]
i’d never thought you’d let it get this way
i’ve stood by, watching what we’ve built decay
we’re just pretending that the ending is near
mother, isn’t it clear?
your family’s here
[crowd]
everybody
[eros]
can see the agony you’re going through
[crowd]
everybody
[eros]
knows a goddess is inside of you
[crowd]
everybody
[eros]
keeps repeating what they’re meant to do
[crowd]
everybody
[eros]
i’ve got to stop it just to prove to you
[crowd]
everybody
[crowd & eros & grace]
wants to see you fall in love
[crowd]
everybody
[aphrodite]
who’s gonna help me overcome the war?
[crowd]
everybody
[aphrodite]
who’s gonna be there when i’m on the floor?
[crowd]
everybody
[aphrodite]
who’s gonna cry when i walk out the door?
[crowd]
everybody
[aphrodite]
’cause i’m not gonna do this anymore
[crowd]
everybody
[aphrodite]
wants to see you, wants to see you
fall in love
again
