"Mother, let me tell you a secret
Your flowers always died in my hands
And I hated being the goddess of spring
Something you could never understand
And I know how you see me
Your broken, corrupted child of light
But mother, I wanted pomegranates and death
I craved the cruel shadows of the night
Mother, the god of the dead loves me
He bows before me on his knees
He offers me a crown of thorns
And calls me his queen
And maybe you did love me, mother
But he loves me, darkness and all
He knew that I was meant for more
Than being your silly, fragile doll"
- nadia
"And Hades is king of the scythe and the sword
He covers the world in the colour of rust
He scrapes the sky and scars the earth
And he comes down heavy and hard on us
But even that hardest of hearts unhardened
Suddenly when he saw her there"
- anais mitchell feat. justin vernon, epic (part II) in hadestown
