An Eridan Ampora fansong I recorded with a sore throat and a headache, don't ask me why...but I kind of like the result. +Lyrics: |- + I'm a prince and I live in a ship and I aim my rifle and I shoot from the hip + And I have a friend I pity, quite a bit + She said, “Grab your gun, let’s have some fun, share with me your perigees + I have responsibilities, I cannot run + + “I do not wish the death of any living thing + I might be a killer but one day I shall be queen + And put an end to slaughter, but until then I’m keen + On staking clam to land and sea and everyfin between” + + I played a game with eleven fools who told me not to break the rules + But when have angels ever helped me yet? + And magic isn’t real and anyway it doesn’t matter + 'Cause no matter what I conjure it could not help me deflect + + The angry death of every hopeful thought + That I might be a lover or a fighter that I’m not + In someone's spider web, or net I could be caught + But I’m too bitter, better off alone, guess I forgot + + So what do you want me to say? Sorry? + Should I apologize when you ignore me? + I didn’t ask to be right or to be lonely + Or to be hatched into an ugly story + + I'm a prince and I had a pair of princesses in two sharp squares + But then I guess I bored them both to death + And now I think my calling is to break apart and fall to pieces + Better yet, invent a brand new method of ascension + + I’m impressed, you’ve managed to survive + But rest assured we’d all be better off dead than alive + 'Cause when they get a hold of us, we’ll all be batter-fried + And I’m surprised that nobody’s considered switching sides + + So here I am, respectfully and royally destroying + Any chance of getting back on your good gills + And I don’t mean to be hurtful, but if yellow's the new purple + Well, then bleeding’s the new breathing, don’t you think I will + + I used to wish the death of every living thing + I might be your killer but you’ll never be my queen + So put away your laughter, pack up your hopes and dreams + I’m done with black back-handing and red pandering, it seems + + That I am just pathetic, I won’t be overlooked + I’m past the point of fishing to get back upon your hook + I’ve made a manifesto, I’ve been bested by a crook, but never more + I’m planning on reclaiming what he took + + So what did you want me to say?

My longest fansong yet! Very folky and mood-whiplash-y, so if it's too slow for you at first wait a bit. :) +Lyrics: |- + There was a darkness, that soothed me, and raised me up to dream + In an abyss, those nightmares, they’re not what they seem + They whispered of a world they’d known + Where every child was their own + All the colours of an oil spill when moonlight hits the wave, I’ll save you all + + You’ve seen all the things that I’ve seen, you’ve been all the places I’ve been, my friend + You know all the things that I know, well maybe not all but most so who cares? Who is better or worse than anyone? + I’ve made mistakes along the way, but who said things should stay the same? I don’t agree + The universe is filled with so “moray” new exciting things to see, for you and me + + You don’t need saving, you can save yourself + You’re all so special from the inside out + Just take a second, look how far we’ve come + I bet if the nightmares could see me now they’d say well done + + Well done, well done, well done daughter, daughter well done... + + There was a darkness, that knew me, and raised me wild and strong + So hated, and so feared was she, though fearful most of all + She whispered of a hunger deep + And as old as the bones beneath her meat + All strange serenades and never sleeps yet never wakes, I’ll break your fall + + You’ve done everything that you could, you feel like there’s something else you’re supposed to do + Who crossed that road, who burned that bridge, who fought that current and swam with the fish, was it you? + I’ve lost a friend, I’ve gained a friend, what’s a friend mean but a means to an end? I tried my best with + Everyone I’ve ever loved I'll outlive unless I can find where life inside me rests, it is my test + + You don’t need saving, anymore, anymore + But I’m still waving from a not-so-distant shore + Just take a second, look at what you’ll start + I’m sorry that I couldn’t save you, from darkness inside your heart + + Your heart, your heart, your hardened heart, friend… \ No newline at end of file |
