A song inspired by the Greek myth of Amazon warrior, Penthesilea (there are other spellings), who, in her final combat, falls in love with Achilles as he battles her to her death.
lyrics
PENTHESILEA
Baby come
My love's undone
Oh sister weep
My fate's coming down on me
Bend the blade
The temple breaks
A godess waits
Oh babe keep your eyes on me
Baby break your wheels
All night on me
Baby take a ride
A ride on me
Walls they fall
A dog it calls
The man I love won't stop
Dealing death on me
Love's a slave
My heart it breaks
A queen he craves, c'mon
Baby set me free
Baby break your wheels
All night on me
Baby take a ride
A ride on me
Baby baby
Baby baby
Baby break your wheels
All night on me
Baby take a ride
A ride on me
