-LYRICS Harpy Hare Where have you buried all your children? Tell me so I say Harpy Hare Where have you buried all your children? Tell me so I say All the arrows that you've stolen Split in half, now bum and broken Like your heart that was so eager to be hid You can't keep them all caged They will fight and run away Mother, tell me so I say Harpy Hare Where have you buried all your children? Tell me so I say Harpy Hare Where have you buried all your children? Tell me so I say Forest walls and starry ceilings Barren curtains that you're weaving Like the stories that you keep inside your head She can't keep them all safe They will die and be afraid Mother, tell me so I say (Mother, tell me so I say) Harpy Hare Where have you buried all your children? Tell me so I say Harpy Hare Where have you buried all your children? Tell me, so I say Harpy Hare Where have you buried all your children? Tell me so I say Harpy Hare Where have you buried all your children? Tell me so I say! (Tell me so I say!) She can't keep them all caged They'll be far and fly away Mother, tell me you will stay We'll be far and fly away
Hares often hide their young in shallow nests or burrows to protect them from predators. This could be part of the symbolism in the song “Harpy Hare.” The imagery of the hare hiding its children underground might reflect a protective instinct, like in the context of the song, The Harpy Hare/mother represents a figure trying to shield her children, only to realize they will eventually leave or face danger on their own.Additionally the children view her as a harpy suggesting she was an unpleasant mother to them for restricting their freedom when in reality it was for their safety. So the song actually has some quite heartfelt lyrics hopefully this helps. I spent alot of time on this😭🙏

@@pistolpyro97 hey, I don't really know you but I'm sure you'll get through this. I've experienced the same thoughts some time ago because of some physical and mental troubles and I hope you seek professional help! Yes, I know that's what everybody says, but I say that as someone who's been through the same as you. The reason might be as simple as vitamin D deficiency or as serious as a brain tumor (yep, I've got both😅). If you feel left out, that may be because the people around don't see as much beauty in this world as you do. Learn to cherish the littlest simplest experiences, and through that you might as well find a reason to continue fighting. Again, I do not know you sadly, and there's little I can say or do but pray for you to be strong, but in the end it will all be okay. If it's not, know that it's not the end yet.
