lyrics

The first time through I made a few mistakes
Caused some heartache, left dust in my wake

But I did it all over again (I am awful)
Collected every friend (I am awfully kind)
I took every thrashing (I never strayed)
No lashing out, no dashing (I never strayed from my lie)
I never strayed from my lie

All had turned out better than before
But I wasn’t done, I knew there was more

So their happy endings themselves had to end
I couldn’t wait for the real challenge to begin
I disregarded her words, and then her life
She said I’ll be fine out there, and she was right

The Undying, she persists
She will end this, she insists
But this one’s wrong, and I move on
Only the final corridor stands before a new dawn

So it is here that judgment stands
His first attack, I’ll be damned, it lands
I try again, I find my end
Who’d have thought he’d be the one to ascend?

For every life I took along the way
He strikes me down, a debt repaid
He broke a promise to someone
But he broke me too
He has won
