Lyrics Bull of Crete - Murmur

Bull of Crete

From the watching sea
I wish for a beast
A sacrifice to please a god
Must claim my right
to the Cretian throne.
Given to me was not a beast
But a gift
A sacred white bull
My worth upholds
I have kings rule now
Slay a lesser cow
Not unnoticed
Poseidon plans
As she sleeps, she dreams
To lay the beast
Open her eyes
Between her thighs
Minos bull lies
Fear builds on shame
Thus brings on hate
Fear builds on shame
Thus brings on hate
Bring it down
The gate
Bring it down
Build the maze
Labyrinth
Hide the freak
Seven maidens
Seven young sons
Laid to rest
Unsung
Year by year
Brought to feed
Seven maidens
Seven young sons
Laid to rest
