Role	Lyrics
Orpheus	King
	of
	shadows,
	king
	of
	shades
	Hades
	was
	king
	of
	the
	Underworld
Hades	Oh,
	it's
	about
	me?
Hermes	Go
	on
Orpheus	But
	he
	fell
	in
	love
	with
	a
	beautiful
	lady
	Who
	walked
	up
	above
	in
	her
	mother's
	green
	field
	He
	fell
	in
	love
	with
	Persephone
	Who
	was
	gathering
	flowers
	in
	the
	light
	of
	the
	sun
	And
	I
	know
	how
	it
	was
	because
	He
	was
	like
	me
	A
	man
	in
	love
	with
	a
	woman
	Singing
	la la la la la la la
	La la la la la la la
Hades	Where'd
	you
	get
	that
	melody?
Orpheus	La la la la la la la
Persephone	Let
	him
	finish,
	Hades
Orpheus	La la la la la la
	And
	you
	didn't
	know
	how
	And
	you
	didn't
	know
	why
	But
	you
	knew
	that
	you
	wanted
	to
	take
	her
	home
	You
	saw
	her
	alone
	there
	against
	the
	sky
	It
	was
	like,
	she
	was
	someone
	you'd
	always
	known
	It
	was
	like
	you
	were
	holding
	the
	world
	when
	you
	held
	her
	Like
	yours
	were
	the
	arms
	that
	the
	whole
	world
	was
	in
	And
	there
	were
	no
	words
	for
	the
	way
	that
	you
	felt
	So
	you
	opened
	your
(Orpheus)	mouth
	and
	you
	started
	to
	sing
	La la la la la la la
	La la la la la la la
	La la la la la la la
	La la la la la la
	(x4)
	La la la la la la la
	La la la la la la la
	La la la la la la la
	La la la la la la la
	La la la la la la
	La la la la la
	La la la la la la
	La la la la la la la
	La la la la la la la
	What
	has
	become
	of
	the
	heart
	of
	that
	man?
	Now
	that
	the
	man
	is
	king
	What
	has
	become
	of
	the
	heart
	of
	that
	man
	Now
	that
	he
	has
	everything?
	The
	more
	he
	has,
	the
	more
	he
	holds
	The
	greater
	the
	weight
	of
	the
	world
	on
	his
	shoulders
	See
	how
	he
	labors
	beneath
	that
	load
(Orpheus)	Afraid
	to
	look
	up
	and
	afraid
	to
	let
	go
	So
	he
	keeps
	his
	head
	low,
	he
	keeps
	his
	back
	bending
	He's
	grown
	so
	afraid,
	that
	he'll
	lose
	what
	he
	owns
	But
	what
	he
	doesn't
	know
	is
	that
	what
	he's
	defending
	Is
	already
	gone
	Where
	is
	the
	treasure
	inside
	of
	your
	chest?
	Where
	is
	your
	pleasure?
	Where
	is
	your
	youth?
	Where
	is
	the
	man
	with
	his
	arms
	outstretched?
	To
	the
	woman
	he
	loves,
	with
	nothing
	to
	lose
	Singing
	la la la la la la la
Hades	La la la la la la la
Orpheus	La la la la la la la
Hades + Persephone	La la la la la la
