FAor too long, OeFdipus had ponFdered on the past WonAdering if the oraFcle was tFrue The anAswer soon cFame with the meFssenger WAho broFught the nFews
JocFasta quesFtioned him; foFund that Polybus was dead ThFat's right, Oedipus' sFo-called dad; he's dFead, that's what I said SicFkness tFook ol' PoFlybus down FHe just couFldn't win the fFight But OedFipus wFas supposed to kFill him WFas the orFacle just nFot right? ReaFssurance slFightly returned to OeFdipus' head But Fhe still feFared the thought of his moFther's bed AFway from CorFinth, Oedipus wFould stay F F (No chords) F Would he return? Yeah right, that would be the day
The meDmssenger then brFought even mFore dreadful words DmHe had saved OedFipus while watFching his herd DDmoubt was preFsent; viFsions were blurred The thDmought of the sitFuation Fwas just absurd But thDmere were the sFcars of the pFins and the tree And JoDmcasta foFund the truth of her shAady memories
OeFdipus sAment for the seFrvant of LFaius the king NFot looking Amout for hFis own wFell being OedFipus was detAmermined, the queFstions he did aFsk FHe must Amknow the tFruth of his pFast The sheFpherd was relAmuctant; the seFcrets he would nFot reveal TFhe suspense is buiAmlding; Fit all seems Fso surreal AFfter threatening the sheAmpherd, trFying to start a bFrawl ODmedipus found that the orFacle was tFrue after all
JoDmcasta fFound the trFuth out all along DmHer and her sFon, eww, tFhat's just wrong DmShe knew what had hapFpened, her mFind was a wreck She foDmund eternal haFppiness in the rFope around her neck OeDmdipus heard that sFhe was dead; he bFroke into the chamber He Dmsaw Jocasta haFnging there; he couFldn't control his anger
Dm (softly) Sooo..... (Here comes Slipknot) (no chords) E He pushed the pins into his eyes
It's the oFnly thing that slowly stopped the pAain Of hFis denial, it was all in vAain HFis decree, he must now oAbey And foFrever, in exFile he will stAay.
