Hades: Lord of the Dead
Hi, my name is Hades
And all day I just cry
‘Cause one greedy brother got the ocean
And the other got the sky.
I’m the eldest of the three
And my story seems unfair, you see
‘Cause I’m stuck under-ground
And the youngest got the crown.
My company is not many
The dead is all I see
And though I have loads of money
It doesn’t mean much to me.
My wife hates my guts,
My accomplishments aren’t much,
Resentment they say I have,
But they only know half.
And so my story ends here
It is one of un-based hatred and fear.
For me loved is something I will never be,
Because I am Hades: immortalized in Greek mythology.
