Ilium - Antigone lyrics

<b>Antigone</b> by <i>Ilium</i><br />

The fight is over now, both are dead

Which way will I turn?

Polynices, Eteocles my friends

Both in blood we're bound

Fought for the Polis, take it for their own

But now death's seeds are sown

What is happening to the system?

Is this really Dikaios?

Where is my free will?

Family or Polis - who can tell?

Creon the Polis supports Polynices

As he fought for the state

But I cannot bury only one

Fear miasma my fate

Creon sees Eteocles a traitor

Turning on his state

What is happening to the system?

Is this really Dikaios?

Where is my free will?

Family or Polis - who can tell?

My life of pain has taught me this

That no one reign ensures you bliss

Be true to me 'cause I'm the one

Not the state who can bring me undone

Creon has now lost his family

Haemon, Eurydice

Creon's tragedy is now overt

Now he sees his guilt

Oedipus my father of the curse

Has led us all to death
