Over deze songtekst:
Lethe was een Griekse godin in de Griekse mythologie. Zij was de godin van de vergetelheid. Zij was tevens een van de 5 rivieren die door het dodenrijk stroomden. De doden die daar uit dronken, vergaten zo hun aardse leven.
In sommige theologische filosofieën kunnen de zielen daarna, nadat hun aardse leven vergeten is, weer incarneren. Dwz dat ze weer mens kunnen worden.
The thought of you possesses me You're the dweller of my mind Where you are utterly and vividly alive I called upon Lethe The spirit of forgetfulness I implored her deeply To erase my memory She said "Be careful what you wish for, deary" "Those waters aren't meant for the living For all you know, I could be a trickster Merciless and unforgiving I might not be your well-wisher" Lethe decided to help me The spirit of oblivion She took me to the underworld Among the souls of the dead Where I drank from the river to help me forget "Those waters aren't meant for the living For all you know, I could be a trickster Merciless and unforgiving I might not be your well-wisher" And I forgot it all Yet I still remember you I've got no remembrance of who I am Oh, I forgot it all Yet I still remember you I've got no remembrance of who I am Yet I still know you through and through Those waters aren't meant for the living I made a desperate deal with a trickster Merciless and unforgiving A misleading voice, with a truthful whisper Those waters aren't meant for the living I made a desperate deal with a trickster Merciless and unforgiving A misleading voice, with a truthful whisper Misleading voice, with a truthful whisper
