grievous lyre - orpheus lyrics

waking up to the sound of a phone
she’s dead and now you’re all alone
how’d it happen? well, i’m not sure
all i know is i found her body laying on the floor

drink, oh, drink all your sorrows away
orpheus you light it up while you sit there and pray
have you seen the man at the bar every night?
rumor has it he just lost his wife

hookers don’t do sh+t ’cause it’s not the one that you love
and your prayers are never answered when you look up above
the only chance you’ll ever have of escaping this dark night
is with this bud and a match, oh it’ll make you feel alright

drink, oh, drink all your sorrows away
orpheus you light it up while you sit there and pray
have you seen the man at the bar every night?
he croons the sad ol’ song about how he lost his wife

his chest, it is aching and now he is shaking
he can’t seem to find a way how to escape
’cause now she is gone and everything’s wrong
so how does he keep on going

physical pleasures and desperate measures
(his chest, it is aching and now he is shaking)
high off his mind and too drunk to relapse
(he can’t seem to find a way how to escape)
his heart, it is sinking and he can’t stop thinking
(’cause now she is gone and everything’s wrong)
her smile, her cheek, he feels too d+mn weak
(so how does he keep on going)
his chest, it is aching and now he is shaking
(physical pleasures and desperate measures)
(eurydice waits in the dark underworld)
he can’t seem to find a way how to escape
(high off his mind and too drunk to relapse)
(standing in asphodel, shining in pearl)
’cause now she is gone and everything’s wrong
(his heart, it is sinking and he can’t stop thinking)
(with thisbe and pyramus, lost lovers’ home)
so how does he keep on going
(her smile, her cheek, he feels too d+mn weak)
(without her love, she stands there alone)

physical pleasures and desperate measures
(his chest, it is aching and now he is shaking)
(eurydice waits in the dark underworld)
high off his mind and too drunk to relapse
(he can’t seem to find a way how to escape)
(standing in asphodel, shining in pearl)
his heart, it is sinking and he can’t stop thinking
(’cause now she is gone and everything’s wrong)
(with thisbe and pyramus, lost lovers’ home)
her smile, her cheek, he feels too d+mn weak
(so how does he keep on going)
(without her love, she stands there alone)
drink, oh, drink all your sorrows away
orpheus, you light it up while you sit there and pray
have you seen the man at the bar every night
rumor has it he’s gonna join his wife
