lyrics

Je m’étais assis sur la cime antique
Et la vierge neige, en face des Dieux ;
Je voyais monter dans l’air pacifique
La procession des morts glorieux.

La terre exhalait le divin cantique
Que n’écoute plus le siècle oublieux,
Et la chaîne d’or du Zeus homérique
D’anneaux en anneaux l’unissait aux cieux.

Mais, ô passions, noirs oiseaux de proie,
Vous avez troublé mon rêve et ma joie :
Je tombe du ciel, et n’en puis mourir !

Vos ongles sanglants ont dans mes chairs vives
Enfoncé l’angoisse avec le désir,
Et vous m’avez dit : — Il faut que tu vives ! —

White Mare

Tragic heroes facing epic toils, yet so common to this mortal coil. Tragic and epic are indeed the most suitable
words to describe WHITE MARE’s music, crafted from mesmerizing
piano melodies, funebre riffs, and desperate leads.
