Coldplay - Swallowed In The Sea Lyrics lyrics

A shade of terror

Right before midnight

He sent some guards to search for her

Orpheus' soul was slowly drowning

Into a pit of burning fear

His love was lost

As he discovered

Eurydice's sad fate

A twisted thought went through his mind

He sailed to north following the coast of

The Ionic Sea heading for the

Dark river Styx

Enchanting Charon Orpheus reached

Those shores full of shades

In the Reign of the damned

By his golden lyre

He brought peace for a while

With the Queen of Hades

A deal was made

A new hope for his bride

The nymph could return

Back to life again

But on the path that leads to light

Orpheus must not take a single look at her

Or she'd belong to death's Realm

Forevermore

When the warm rays of the morning sun

Broke the darkness of the cave

For a moment he forgot the deal

And he lost his beloved bride

Again
