Lyrics

Mother Night

Verse 1

Some say you woke alone

From Chaos with no hand

Some say Love woke with you

Two shadows in one land

Pre-Chorus

Mother night

Mother night

Hold your children tight

You bore a son called Amor

You bore a daughter Eris

Amor turned the stones to people

Eris turned the apple into war

Both of them are yours

Both of them are yours[Chorus]

Verse 2

He knelt by the flood line

And threw the bones behind

She walked into the wedding

And left the gold on the floor

One cried let the good thing win

One cried let the gods decide

Pre-Chorus

Mother night

Mother night

Which one did you hide

You bore a son called Amor

You bore a daughter Eris

Amor turned the stones to people

Eris turned the apple into war

Both of them are yours

Both of them are yours[Chorus]

If love and strife are siblings

If both were born from dark

Then every prayer for kindness

Is a child inside the storm

Begging mother, begging mother

Hold them in your arms[Bridge]

Final Chorus

Nyx, hold your children

Amor and Eris too

Teach the stones to stay human

Teach the gold to lose

Oh-oh

Both of them are yours
