the mechanisms – twisted threads كلمات اغاني

[jonny d’ville]
when you run a place like the city, there’s a lot needs spinning: schemes, smears and a web of lies to keep the family strong. and if, like arachne, you got a golden tongue and a mind weaves deceit like fine thread, athena might pay you a call

[athena]
we don’t deceive
we just twist the way that they perceive
just think of all the things you could achieve
the truth is here for you and i to weave
in this world where reputation is king
can’t you see the change our talents could bring
if you let me take you under my wing
i’ll teach you to be an artist of spin

[jonny d’ville]
money flows easy when you’re in the shadow of athena. power, freedom, and the promise of more. but if you’re like arachne, the taste of sunlight is never enough, and ambition bites harder than any drug. but ambition can turn to pride, can turn to hubris

[arachne]
thank you for all the chances you brought
but i’ve surp-ssed all the lessons you taught
i’m too good to just be part of your plot
to trap me in your web i will not be caught

[athena]
you turn down my generosity
when i’m the one who put you on your feet
leave now and crawl back on your knees
because you are nothing without me

[jonny d’ville]
maybe, like arachne, you’re sick of the shadows. you want your day in the sun. but politics in the city is dirtier than the rain, and if you’re running for office against zeus’ chosen, the mud you sling has to burn, and maybe you’re not careful enough where you throw it

[arachne]
with the s-xual indiscretion zeus has bought
i’ll cast olympian name into the dirt
paint a lurid print for all to see
of all your pretty lies and your deceit
and the victory that i have earned
a claim to power i have always yearned
i will no longer stay behind the scenes
i’ll weave my dream reality

[athena, overlapping]
bring you to heel. soon you shall kneel

[jonny d’ville]
your death is just bad luck, of course. the streets are so dangerous, and random violence happens all the time, even to someone like arachne. but don’t worry: nothing goes to waste in the city, and they left your brain in perfect shape. the acheron has a special place for minds like yours, especially if you’ve got a voice the people trust. you still get to spin, in a way, but it just goes to show: it doesn’t matter what you weave if you’re caught in a web before you even begin

[athena/arachne x2]
the olympians have your best interests at heart
recent smears against zeus have proven to be fraudulent
remember to be grateful for the benevolence of olympus
have you considered applying for acheron pre-selection?
