(Singering character: Carolyn Windoe!) (As I mentioned in the other version, this is meant to be sung by an immortal character named Carolyn. I'm not sure if I'll use her again, but y'know. I just barely like this version better than the other. Anyway, thanks for listening!) [Intro: start with humming, quiet,] Mmm, mmm, mmm. ([Spoken] Even now, I remember it all. Every event I ever saw.) [Verse 1: Subtle, light, casual] I've seen all of history. And I'll live to infinity. Death and I are quite cordial. Indeed it's true, [Special emphasis] I'm an immortal. [Chorus:] So, yes, there's been a great many changes. There've been shifts in all of the ages. But there's one unchanging frequence, (No denial.) Man's fate? It's a repeating sequence. (It's a cycle.) [Verse 2: Hopeful, sentimental,] Truly, I was there as all came to be. The wheel, the hut, and the rule of three. Tribes, sovereigns, and democracy. Every city, kingdom, and country. (I am older than even the sea.) [Chorus:] So, yes, there's been a great many changes. There've been shifts in all of the ages. But there's one unchanging frequence, (No denial.) Man's fate? It's a repeating sequence. (It's a cycle.) [Verse 3: Grim, serious, slightly accusatory, still composed] And yet despite all these achievements. (Over and over.) You all insist on tearing one another to pieces. (And Over and over) I saw the fires that have raged. (And over and over) I've seen endless wars waged. (And over and over!) (Over and over and over again!) [Chorus:] So, yes, there's been a great many changes. There've been shifts in all of the ages. But there's one unchanging frequence, (No denial.) Man's fate? It's a repeating sequence. (It's a cycle.) [Bridge: Melancholic, symtathetic] I cry for the children of Adam and Eve. I sob for those who cease to perceive. Cease to perceive that you're stuck on repeat. That you've been stuck on repeat for centuries. [Fast-paced section start: whispered, echoy] (Heroes only rise when villains claim lives.) (The innocent die as they're cast to the side.) (For it's the lessons they need, the ones they must keep,) (That people never seem to heed.) [End of fast-paced section.] [Chorus: Neutral vocals, solemn] So, yes, there's been a great many changes. (No denial.) There've been shifts in all of the ages. (It's a cycle.) But there's one unchanging frequence, (No denial.) Man's fate? It's a repeating sequence. [Whiserped] It's a cycle.
