The story
Marsyas was a Satyr with unparalleled musical talent. The melodies of his flute drove those who listened to them crazy and seduced even the nymphs into ecstatic dancing. When Apollo found out about him, he challenged him to compete. But no one was a worthy match for Helios, the God of Music, who with his lyre plunged the forest creatures into an overwhelming silence and tears flowed from their eyes. But the god was not satisfied with this, and to punish the Hybris of the Satyr, he removed his gallows and hung him from them, a barbaric reminder to all, mortal and demigods, that they must not provoke the true gods.
Lyrics:
The Hunter calls the Forest God who dared in pride to wallow
a deaf-mute song, with no applaud, the Faun against Apollo
Through godly lyre he dies skinned
dark bile blood ink, his last drink
It seems long ago, when his fine notes deranged the maids
dancing till night fades
Now mere, tale of woe, spell casting words have sealed his breath
I mourn a serenade of death
Hysteria spits out of his flute, all spirits reigned by madness
yet the Sun’s voice had left them mute, condemning him to darkness
Look at him, pinned, like a moth
he hangs, stripped-off, his skin-cloth
It seems long ago, when his fine notes deranged the maids
dancing till night fades
Now mere, tale of woe, spell casting words have sealed his breath
I mourn a serenade of death
It seems long ago, when his fine notes deranged the maids
dancing till night fades
Now mere, tale of woe, his fount of breath has been ripped off,
shivering screams, pleading “enough“
