The Erinyes

The Erinyes ( ih-RIN-ee-eez; sing. Erinys ih-RIN-iss, ih-RY-niss; Ancient Greek: Ἐρινύες, pl. of Ἐρινύς), also known as the Eumenides (commonly known in English as the Furies), were female chthonic deities of vengeance in ancient Greek religion and mythology. A formulaic oath in the Iliad invokes them as "the Erinyes, that under earth take vengeance on men, whosoever hath sworn a false oath". Walter Burkert suggests that they are "an embodiment of the act of self-cursing contained in the oath". They correspond to the Dirae in Roman mythology. The Roman writer Maurus Servius Honoratus wrote (ca. 400 AD) that they are called "Eumenides" in hell, "Furiae" on Earth, and "Dirae" in heaven.

PARADISE

As you kneeled on the floor
What a smell
You have lost
I felt your eyes upon me
what's your name
you are a slave now
so light but so deep 
I lost myself
you look so tired & weak
you will obey us
in a world I never knew
and give us what we need
something different between us


Don't try to talk me 
you're cute that's all I see
my toy for ecstasy 
that's a lI want and need

I fake to feel the need 
chased by my destiny 
no joy or chemistry 
the truth I hide to be



Heart why do you betray me
No, No
Stop I just wanna feel numb
Heart why do you betray me
No, No
Stop I just wanna feel numb

Take me 
to paradise 
beyond the glow 
Take me 
and hold me tight 
don 't ever let me go 

Don't think I'll set you free 
that lust will make me weak
Don't trust the enemy   
that's all my eyes can see 
 
Love, I don't wanna hide it
No, No
No I don't wanted to end
Love, I don't wanna hide it
No, No
No I don't wanted to end

Take me 
to paradise 
beyond the glow 
Take me 
and hold me tight 
don 't ever let me go

GUITAR SOLO

Take me 
to paradise 
beyond the glow 
Take me 
and hold me tight 
don 't ever let me go
