Let this game begin
Watch, my children
Watch me, you've all come to die
For this battle is lost
Losing their minds
Losing their souls (hush, now hush)
We don't talk
We don't care anymore (I will seal every door)
We don't care anymore
I summon the Nine now
Confirm the alignment (can't get through?)
Carry on, you fools
Try to break free
When we fail
It's lost forever (oh)
When we fail
It's lost forever (oh)

It's not real, no reason to be here
No more fear and no more regrets
Don't look back and free your mind
Stay where you are till the sealing is over

Say goodbye, my friend
Here's your promised end
Be a part of the grand parade
Along we're driven
On and on, it's a grand parade
We're one, we're so sorry to say
It's all the same, you will see
On this grand parade
Damnation
Now join the grand parade

Don't be upset (I will seal every door)
Every now and then (seal every door)
They'll try to awake the misguided (I will seal every door)
The voices you'll hear
They will claim to be real, it's not true

Now look around
We will bring them down
The more I'll show
The less you will know
The Nine will frown
Now see how it grows
Secretly my vision comes true

It's not real
You'll hear it, you'll see it
The otherworld
The otherworld
The otherworld appears

Now round and round
We all shall lose ground
Now praise, I'm the one

We will never fear
We will never fear
We will never fear them again

Oh and here comes the son, the son
He's gone with the shadows
Along with the stars

No more gods, no more lies

No more gods, no war
We'll be free here, we are one
Our will is strong

No more lies and no more tyrants
It all becomes real when the sealing is over

Say goodbye, my friend
Here's your promised end
Be a part of the grand parade
Along we're driven
On and on, it's a grand parade
We're one, we're so sorry to say
It's all the same, you will see
On this grand parade
Damnation
Now join the grand parade

There is no return
It would be the end

We shall sing, we shall sing
Praise the day

Void, we don't fear you no more
Mother void, you can't enter no more

We don't need any hallows
We don't fear any shadows
Shadows on the wall
They're not real
Now, walk in, everyone

Here comes the sun

We will never fall
We will never fall
We will never see him again

Many, we're one
We're humanized
The time has come

This flesh is truth
This blood is real
The highest cause
It's all that we are longing for

There on the river Styx
You'll see, my friend
There on the river Styx
You'll see
They've fooled you to take it away

So no more myths
No more bliss
We are holding it in our hand
And there is nothing they can do

And so this battle ends forevermore
We don't fear anything
Nor any other race
We take control
No longer we act like fools
We're in control

Say goodbye, my friend
Here's your promised end
Be a part of the grand parade
Along we're driven
On and on, it's a grand parade
We're one, we're so sorry to say
It's all the same, you will see
On this grand parade
Damnation
Now join the grand parade

Drown one more time
While we all will say goodbye
Bright, it shines bright
Let us carry one the lie
No more lies
One more lie

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
