about

Says guitarist Billie O'Dwyer "we started writing the music for the song around the time we were playing a Pendulum medley in our set, and we were all feeling the urge to create something of our own with a bit more of a drum and bass influence, but keeping the signature Sir Curse sound all over it." Vocalist Lyndsay Dale adds "Siren is about myths and folklore. When we were writing the song I was reading a book about the Greek goddess Persephone, and I really liked how these dangerous creatures were her companions."

Siren was produced by Adam Bairstow, and mastered by Ben Pike of Rare Tone Mastering. Arwork by Dana Davis.

lyrics

She’s a siren
Sitting pretty in the water
Voice like diamonds
Rare to find and not sustainable

Submerge me in your cross current
Subtle but deadly you'll soon
Rip through me

“My little lover,
Come a bit closer
I’ll meet you at the shore

You could be with me
Step into this dream"

A tragedy
that we replay
Call me by name
Persephone

The risk we take
My last mistake
Call me by name

She’s a siren
Another body in the water
Calmer morning
The ocean breeze is like a symphony

Submerge me in your cross current
Subtle but deadly you’ll soon
Rip through me

“My little lover,
Come a bit closer
I’ll meet you at the shore

You could be with me
Step into this dream"

A tragedy
that we replay
Call me by name
Persephone

This risk we take
My last mistake
Call me by name
Persephone

Companion of the sea
My anthology
Abducted by Hades
Trickery

Orpheus
He heard our voices, drowned out the sound
And to this day we still can’t be found
I’ll meet you at the shore
You can be with me
Step into this dream

Orpheus
He heard our voices
drowned out the sound
Can’t be found
