Evil Beauty - Half of Me - Persephone’s Lament

Half of Me - Persephone’s Lament

Half of Me - Persephone’s Lament
Golden fields, the sun was high,
Barefoot laughter, days so bright.
Then the earth began to break,
A shadow rose, sealed my fate.

Hands so cold, yet words so sweet,
Chains of love wrap around my feet.
I wear a crown, I play my role,
But half of me still longs for home.

Hades calls, and I obey,
Bound in love, yet torn away.
Half a queen, half a ghost,
Trapped between the sun and snow.

Midnight halls and rivers deep,
Frozen echoes where secrets sleep.
He says I bloom beneath the dark,
But flowers die without the spark.

Hands so cold, yet words so sweet,
Chains of love wrap around my feet.
I wear a crown, I play my role,
But half of me still longs for home.

Hades calls, and I obey,
Bound in love, yet torn away.
Half a queen, half a ghost,
Trapped between the sun and snow.

Springtime waits, but not for me,
Six months lost beneath the sea.
I taste the fruit, I play along,
But every bite feels so wrong.

Hades calls, and I obey,
But my heart still drifts away.
Underworld, my lover’s throne,
Yet half of me will never call it home.
