lyrics

Vexation moved the wood to horror
As they caged the stone wall den
Wherein the strain of defloration
was abstain from the sight of men
Phillomela's screams fell silent
As she laid defiled in the soil
Tereus unscathed his blade
To deprave this mortal coil

Sing in sorrow my beloved nightingale
Haunt the morrow with your disconsolate tale

The sister damned to silence
As she was bereft her tongue
But through a tapestry woven
Her tragedy was sung
Procne implored vengeance
By the barbaric king's guile
Reunited in madness
The sisters sought to defile

Sing in sorrow m beloved nightingale
Haunt the morrow with your disconsolate tale
Piteously harrowed my beloved nightingale
You shall haunt me forever with your tragic woven veil

Ithys' face spat murder at his mother's embrace
The ties of kindred were severed as they dismembered the deceased

"Husband, I have for you a glorious feast
A banquet fit for you, you beguiling beast
Husband, your treachery has left my sister defiled
The penance i have for you is the flesh of our own child"

Grieve!

Sing in sorrow m beloved nightingale
Haunt the morrow with your disconsolate tale
Piteously harrowed my beloved nightingale
You shall haunt me forever with your tragic woven veil
