| The Tea Party – Psychopomp Lyrics | 11 years ago |
| this song as stated by jeff martin (cannot for the life of me remember where)is influenced by the greek myth of orpheus and eurydice,.orpheus being a demi god (one of the sons/daughters of a god and a 'mortal' woman, apollo being the god or the king of thracian land,and a muse calliope ) orpheus becoming known as the father of songs, the story continues later on about him wooing eurydice only for her to die after her wedding to being bitten by vipers, but the song orpheus sang in grief saddened all the gods allowing opheus to travel to the underworld to rescue eurydice however hades had a condition that she could leave as long as he didnt look at her until they both reached the surface, and as orpheus reached it turned around, forgettingthey both had to be, and then saw her fade away forever | |
