Old Wounds - Red Edition lyrics
by Troy Baker
[APOLLO]
Calliope, I'm listening now
Tell us what end you were doomed to
[PERSEPHONE]
Calliope, blinded by fire
What match did you strike that consumed you?
[APOLLO]
How could you blame her?
What could she have done to earn such a fate?
You are blinded!
[PERSEPHONE]
God of the Sun, hides from his own eyes
What would you know about fate?
[APOLLO]
You say that you knew her, she was family to us
Yet you don't hesitate to accuse her
Oh Queen without a throne, gone bitter with fury
Not everyone seeks to betray you
[GRACE, spoken]
Stop this!
(sung)
Every action comes with a cost
[APOLLO]
Then who could she have crossed... and lost to?
[PERSEPHONE]
Apollo your help is not needed here
Go ahead and abandon another Muse
[APOLLO]
How could you throw that gauntlet at me?
Could your heart shrivel any further?
[PERSEPHONE & APOLLO]
You abandoned me to a terrible fate! (I've a terrible fate)
You replay your injuries 'til it's too late (It's far too late)
You know how far I bent before I snapped (I am trapped)
[APOLLO & PERSEPHONE]
This is not about you!
[APOLLO, spoken]
Enough! This helps no-one!
[PERSEPHONE, spoken]
There he is - God of the Sun!
[GRACE]
Aren't you a queen, with all that that means?
Stop looking for a fight!
These old wounds, they have you paralyzed
Calliope would want more from you
[APOLLO, spoken]
She wanted so much more
[PERSEPHONE, spoken]
She is gone
Follow him or stay
