Georgia Hazelgrove - Persephone

Every night he'd have a new demand
He'd tell me fears and he'd tell me plans
Whatever he asked me, he knew I'd say yes
We didn't choose life but we chose death

We sat in the dark and inhaled the white smoke
How we smiled as the people spoke
Of what they'd do when they saw us undressed
They didn't choose life, but we chose death

Then I would swallow and the liquid fell
Into my insides and it cast its spell
We were young and you'd never have guessed
That we couldn't choose life but we could choose death

Poisoned love and contaminated hands
Lift us up and take us down to the Promised Land
Days turn to ash but the night is on fire
My mind is in the dark but I'm inspired

They said, "it's time to go back to where you're from"
My love tells me that it won't be long
I took everything that I was fed
Because I knew that one day I'd be dead

Still every night he has a new demand
He tells me fears and he tells me plans
Whatever he asks me, he knows I'll say yes
Everything he does is for the best
