[Verse 9] Theodorus dreamed of councils, of unity’s reign, Of leaders who’d cure this world’s pain. A vision of peace, a world set right, He fought for his cause with all his might. [Hook 9] But fate would call for one last stand, The undead’s tide would choke the land. For Rissa’s sake, his soul would burn, A sacrifice for what we’d learn. [Post-hook 9] He told them flee, his flames would roar, As death and flame came to the door. But cold would take him, flames would wane, His soul trapped in the demon’s chain. [Verse 10] Christian dreamed of music, a life on stage, Of love and family, a peaceful age. With April by his side, he’d build and grow, A life in meadows, where soft winds blow. [Hook 10] But paths are tangled, choices hard, And Christian made a deal too far. With Cat and devil, he walked in shame, And the greater good would call his name. [Post-hook 10] When Cat’s head fell beneath the blade, Christian’s life would too be laid. A dream destroyed, a future lost, All for the deals, the devil’s cost. [Verse 11] Once a man of heart and pride, Tazar’s dreams, like rivers, died. He longed for days when life was sweet, But now he’s lost, and there’s no retreat. [Hook 11] The shop he built, now worn and thin, The joy it brought, now lost within. His friends are gone, their lives undone, He’ll face the world as he’s the only one. [Post-hook 11] The glutton’s path, the feast of death, With food and drink, he’ll steal his breath. A heart that once had life and fire, Will fade to ash, consumed by mire. [Verse 12] Mephala once was beauty, fierce and bold, A temptress wrapped in silks of gold. But love was fleeting, never true, And in her heart, the darkness grew. [Hook 12] Anga was the one she thought could save, But loss turned her into a slave. To pills and powders, life in decay, Her beauty faded, led astray. [Post-hook 12] Her heart, once warm, now filled with greed, Chasing highs, she planted the seed. In a tavern's depths, alone she fell, Lost to the darkness, a poisoned spell. [Bridge] Jenova danced with fire, bold and bright, With Jimmy by her side, love’s pure light. A son, a daughter, born to be free, Witches of the forest, wild as the sea. [Final Chorus] Jimmy grew old, but Jenova stayed young, Her heart would break when his song was sung. Her children grew, and time moved on, But enemies came, her peace was gone. [Outro] Hunted and trapped, she'd fight till the end, Her power unmatched, but none could defend. She'd fall at last, a final sigh, Her name lives on, beneath the sky. [Spoken Interlude] "So... the dance finally ends." Jimmy, my love... I felt the years pull at you like a tide I could never join. I watched our children grow wild, as untamable as the sea they were born from. I thought being eternal was a gift— a way to guard the forest forever. But I see now... a fire that never goes out only burns until there is nothing left to warm. The world is full of such beautiful, terrifying anxiety.
