Lyrics Epic, Pt. 2 - Anaïs Mitchell , Justin Vernon
Heavy
and
hard
is
the
heart
of
a
king
King
of
iron,
king
of
steel
The
heart
of
the
king
loves
everything
Like
the
hammer
loves
the
nail
But
the
heart
of
a
man
is
a
simple
one
Small
and
soft,
flesh
and
blood
And
all
that
it
loves
is
a
woman
A
woman
is
all
that
it
loves
And
Hades
is
king
of
the
scythe
and
the
sword
He
covers
the
world
in
the
colour
of
rust
He
scrapes
the
sky
and
scars
the
earth
And
he
comes
down
heavy
and
hard
on
us
But
even
that
hardest
of
hearts
unhardened
Suddenly
when
he
saw
her
there
Persephone
in
her
mother's
garden
Sun
on
her
shoulders,
wind
in
her
hair
The
smell
of
the
flowers
she
held
in
her
hand
And
the
pollen
that
fell
from
her
fingertips
And
suddenly
Hades
was
only
a
man
With
a
taste
of
nectar
upon
his
lips,
singing
La
la
la
la
la
la
la...
