This is about the nymph Callisto, a numyph to Artemis, who was never to lose her virginity too stay beautiful, Zeus was obviously attracted to her and digised himself as Artimes 'wearing a mask familiar' in order to get close to her and raped her 'A god forced himself on you, Raping and impregnating' , she was then 'cursed to roam the earth a beast' as she changed into a bear 'Causing the exile of your life', she gave birth to a son, Arcas, who perhaps nearly killed his own mother not recognizing her, 'Readied arm to cast a spear, to kill, Can't recognize, all he sees is fear' 'all he sees is fear' is him seeing his mothers fear. Zeus then placed them in the sky as a constelation, 'Change Like Calisto, To A Star In Hevean'

CORRECT, hey since you know alot about greek mythology you should see other peoples opinions on what the song means on hell mouth and scylla & charybdis i already explained them. and you beat me to this one. good job

Greek mythology is really interesting. Shogun is one of my favorite albums of all time
