The Erinyes

The Erinyes ( ih-RIN-ee-eez; sing. Erinys ih-RIN-iss, ih-RY-niss; Ancient Greek: Ἐρινύες, pl. of Ἐρινύς), also known as the Eumenides (commonly known in English as the Furies), were female chthonic deities of vengeance in ancient Greek religion and mythology. A formulaic oath in the Iliad invokes them as "the Erinyes, that under earth take vengeance on men, whosoever hath sworn a false oath". Walter Burkert suggests that they are "an embodiment of the act of self-cursing contained in the oath". They correspond to the Dirae in Roman mythology. The Roman writer Maurus Servius Honoratus wrote (ca. 400 AD) that they are called "Eumenides" in hell, "Furiae" on Earth, and "Dirae" in heaven. Erinyes are akin to some other Greek deities, called Poenai.According to He… more »

DEATH BY BROKEN HEART

I know I see
you're the enemy

a fallen one
of the sons of god
 
Your hunger will devour us
like a thief steals in the night
staining souls for pure delight
     
who will follow you
it's a straight road to 
death by broken heart 
hard to let you go
not to lose control 
when your next to me
   
Hunting my dreams 
but I remember 
stories and tales of love
how they always
lead to war, tear families apart
No More

oh oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh oh


  I'm trained to feel
and smell treachery

your act is done
I'll send you to God

Your anger has inflamed us
like wildfire burning bright
caging souls to fuel the fight

who will follow you
it's a straight road to 
death by broken heart
hard to let you go
not to lose control 
when your next to me
  
Hunting my dreams 
but I remember 
stories and tales of love
how they always     
lead to war, tear families apart

oh oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh oh
 





I will show your real face
I will take you apart
I can see that your hiding
And all this is a lie 
There's  a way I can save us
from the storm in our minds
Only one way to save us
I will kill you tonight 

like a thief steals in the night
staining souls for pure delight

who will follow you
it's a straight road to 
death by broken heart
hard to let you go
not to lose control 
when your next to me
  
Hunting my dreams 
but I remember 
stories and tales of love
how they always     
lead to war, tear families apart

who will follow you
it's a straight road to 
death by broken heart
hard to let you go
not to lose control 
when your next to me
  
Hunting my dreams 
but I remember 
stories and tales of love
how they always     
lead to war, tear families apart
