Swan Upon Leda Lyrics In English

[Verse 1]

A husband waits outside

A crying child pushes a child into the night

She was told he would come this time

Without leaving so much as a feather behind

To enact, at last, the perfect plan

One more sweet boy to be butchered by man

[Chorus]

But the gateway to the world

Was still outside the reach of him

Would never belong to angels

Had never belonged to man

The swan upon Leda

Empire upon Jerusalem

[Verse 2]

A grandmother smuggling meds

Past where the god child-soldier, Sétanta, stood dead

Our graceful turner of heads

Weaves through the checkpoints like a needle and thread

Someone's frightened boy waves her on

She offers a mother's smile and soon, she's gone

[Chorus]

The gateway to the world

The gun in a trembling hand

Where nature unmakes the boundary

The pillar of myth still stands

The swan upon Leda

Occupier upon ancient land

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Outro]

The gateway to the world

Was still outside the reach of him

Would never belong to angels

Had never belonged to men
