Second Chances

[Verse 1] Twenty thousand years beneath a curse, A stolen future, a fate made worse. Mehrunes was trapped in endless pain, And I refused to watch her break again. I pulled the strings, I called the brave, Did everything I could to make her saved. Ask me why I chose to interfere... I only knew I couldn't leave her there. [Pre-Chorus] I don't know when the change began, When I stopped being what I am. Or why I reached to pull her through... Perhaps this world has changed me too. [Chorus] Second chances, lives reborn, New beginnings after storms. For every soul the past condemned, There's a chance to start again. I gave her hope, I helped her stand, Though I don't fully understand. Perhaps the gift I've come to know Is second chances aren't mine alone. [Verse 2] Sahrotaar came back to life, Miraak returned to face her strife. English gave them futures they could choose, New lives, new paths, old chains to lose. Odahviing left her old form behind, Paarthurnax followed, leaving hers behind. Durnehviir found a contract new, A chance beyond the Masters' rule. [Pre-Chorus] And now a soul I thought was lost Will find a home despite the cost. Numinex lives, and through me came, A chance to be more than a name. [Chorus] Second chances, lives reborn, New beginnings after storms. For every soul the past condemned, There's a chance to start again. I gave her hope, I helped her stand, Though I don't fully understand. Perhaps the gift I've come to know Is second chances aren't mine alone. [Bridge] I was the end, the final flame, The World-Eater, fear and pain. But here I found a different way, A reason not to end the day. I thought I gave these lives new ground, But look at all the love I've found. Perhaps this world has changed me too, Perhaps I got a second chance anew. [Final Chorus] Second chances, lives reborn, Hope can rise where worlds are torn. No past can tell us what we'll be, No curse can own eternity. For Mehrunes, for Numi, for all my kin, For every soul that starts again. I may not know why I began... But I'll give every chance I can! [Outro] Perhaps I don't need to understand. Perhaps I only need to stand Beside the ones who need me here. Second chances... Begin right here.
