[Verse 1 – gentle piano and strings] In the quiet town of Resembool, under skies so vast, Two brothers dared to challenge fate, to resurrect the past. A mother's smile, a love so pure, slipped beyond their grasp, In ashes and in alchemy, they faced the aftermath. [Verse 2 – drums build, guitars enter] Edward, with his automail, a steel resolve, unbowed, Alphonse, bound in armor's shell, a soul without its shroud. Through deserts scorched and cities dark, their journey led them on, Seeking out the fabled stone to right what had gone wrong. [Chorus – powerful and soaring] Echoes of the alchemist, resound through night and day, A brother's bond, unbroken, guides the path along the way. Through sins of man and homunculi, their hearts remain aligned, In search of truth, they sacrifice, leaving innocence behind. [Verse 3 – intensity rises] Encounters with the Flame's command, and Hawkeye's watchful eyes, A dance with shadows, Greed and Wrath, beneath deceiving skies. The sins embodied walk the land, with Lust's beguiling art, Yet hope persists in Winry's hands, and in the mechanic's heart. [Bridge – haunting choir, instrumental crescendo] The gates of Truth demand their due, a toll in flesh and pain, Yet knowledge gleaned and lessons learned are never taught in vain. The Law of Equivalent Exchange weighs heavy on their souls, But love and loss and sacrifice have greater parts to play. [Final Chorus – triumphant, full orchestration] Echoes of the alchemist, a melody of life, Composed of joy and sorrow, woven through with strife. Yet in the end, the brothers find, beyond the battles fought, The Philosopher's Stone was forged within the lessons they were taught. [Outro – soft piano, fading strings] So under Resembool's endless sky, the brothers' tale is spun, A saga of the alchemists, their journey now is done.
