Because 'Make Her Pay' kept dragging me back into songwriting.
Aradia Megido died yesterday
At the hands of her childhood lover
All orchestrated by the spider's daughter...
And though she'd make her killer pay
There's more still to discover
And there was plenty of time before she fought her...
Aradia Megido died last week
Her spirit walks the prairie
She's still 0k, but her time isn't done
In distant days and futures bleak
She wakens as a faerie
But she and her friends are always on the run...
Tick, tock, the old clocks call
As all time slips away
Over the ages everything falls
Succumbs to its decay
Aradia Megido died last perigee,
Comforts her lover in vain
She knows so much she never could before...
She knows her dreams will set her free
Though she has much to gain
And only time can open up that door...
Aradia Megido died last sweep
In a game of friends and liars
Wasn't the end, though - she had work to do...
By then her soul would sleep
In metal plates and twisting wires
But her story was still anything but through...
CHORUS
Aradia Megido died last sweep
Her home's a ruin, crumbling
Abandoned on a world of fire and death...
And though she has a promise to keep
She's not found death so humbling
And she'll fight to her imagined final breath...
For the dead girl none shall weep
She has a vengeance to bestow
For she's a girl who's made of stronger mettle...
For she has sorrows left to reap
Over time her power grows
And death just gave her one more score to settle...
Tick, tock, the old clocks call
As all time slips away
Over the ages everything falls
Succumbs to its decay...Tick. tock, the old clocks call...
