The serpent bites, there goes my light
I am suddenly alone
My thread is cut, I'm out of luck
And the underworld's my home
Alone down here, as if he's forgotten me
So dark and cold, another he keeps me here in the darkness
Orpheus where are you now
I wish no man would claim me
My life lies in your callous hands
Another victim I'm of man
I am not strong when you are near
We can't go on like this, my dear
Since when did man decide my fate
One can't survive on fear and hate
He's here at last, they bargain for my life
What do they gain, a musician and a king fighting for me
Orpheus what have you done
I wish no man would claim me
Behind the sun, a silhouette
The darkened shadow I belong to
Orpheus you've ruined us
And the underworld's my home

"...an album that looks as much to this side of The Pond as the UK, She Makes War's debut album is a dark melange of 90s Riot Grrrl meets indie-pop meets disquieting ballads, all the time not missing a beat..." https://reclaimingthecolonies-onestateatatime.blogspot.com/

The renditions of these songs are so beautiful and raw. While I love the originals, these stripped down versions show so much feeling from Laura and it just pierces your soul. Love love love. Thanks!
