I want to hold the hand inside you
I want to take the breath that's true
I look to you, and I see nothing
I look to you to see the truth
You live your life, you go in shadows
You'll come apart, and you'll go black
Some kind of night into your darkness
Colors your eyes with what's not there
Fade into you
Strange you never knew
Fade into you
I think it's strange you never knew
A stranger's light comes on slowly
A stranger's heart without a home
You put your hands into your head
And then smiles cover your heart
Fade into you
Strange you never knew
Fade into you
I think it's strange you never knew
Fade into you
Strange you never knew
Fade into you
I think it's strange you never knew

I'll wait up in the dark
For you to speak to me
I'll open up
Release me

For centuries, Knossos was regarded merely as a city of myth and legend until it was unearthed in 1900 CE by English archaeologist Sir Arthur Evans.

The excavated site, adorned with frescoes, shed light on the Minoan sport of bull jumping and made the ancient tale of Theseus and the Minotaur (a creature that was half-man and half-bull) seem less fantastical. During bull-jumping, male athletes engaged closely with the bull as they leaped over its horns. This practice likely inspired the ancient perception of the 'myth' of the Minotaur, as these athletes appeared to embody the traits of both men and bulls. And, the discovery of the palace's complex layout lent credibility to the legend of the labyrinth.

It was Evans who first referred to the ancient inhabitants of Crete as 'Minoan,' named after King Minos of Knossos. His excavation and reconstruction efforts, though controversial, laid the groundwork for all subsequent research of Minoan civilization.
