[intro - sparser, pull back ] [Verse - stripped back, calm down, man. We'll get there. Pace yoself. pull back a little further. no pizzicato cello or banjo here] I reached for the apple but it slipped away The river kissed my ankles then ran astray A feast for the eyes but not for the tongue Every bite Every sip just out of reach [Prechorus - building] Chains of gold or chains of air What’s the difference when despair’s your heir [Chorus - real fuckin' gnarly, dawg - crushing, gripping, chaining, riveting, clanky] Tántalos Tántalos Cursed to crave (Cursed to crave!) Chained by the hunger I cannot slake Tántalos Tántalos Taste the tease Taste the tease! A banquet of shadows that never appease never appease! [drop the mothafuggin' appalachian viking beat! HELL YEAH DAWG I KNEW YOU HAD IT IN YOU] [Verse 2] The grapes dangle close like a lover’s dare I reach I reach But they’re never there The gods laugh loud from their marble thrones While I stand hollow A man of bone [Prechorus] Punishment sweet Punishment cruel Eternity’s the master and I’m its fool [taiko, frame drum viking style, dub wubs] [duelling banjos, duelling cellos, gimme that real southern shiz right here] [Chorus] Tántalos Tántalos Cursed to crave (cursed to crave) Chained by the hunger I cannot slake Tántalos Tántalos Taste the tease (Taste the tease) A banquet of shadows that never appease the grapes dangle close like a lover's dare, Tántalos!! Tántalos Tántalos Taste the tease (Taste the tease) Tántalos Tántalos Cursed to crave (Cursed to crave) A banquet of shadows that never appease never appease Tántalos!! [outro - bring that puppy home!]
