01 - Innocence
A peaceful town
Thriving and growing
Under the guidance
Of its long-standing ruler
A ruler who had united the rivaling factions
And led them into an age of prosperity
There is no war
No hunger
And there are no dark secrets
Almost no dark secrets
02 - AlMost No Dark Secrets
My lord
Why did you summon me here
Was the shield torn asunder
Oh no
Should you not have the townsfolk
Under control
That is quite the mess
Well let me guess
I could feel it from the distance
You're in need of my assistance
Oh don't make that face
I can never quite tell
Is it disdain or affection
Even after all those years
I still struggle to make sense of you
But look at me here
Talking about the past
When there's a more important task at hand
I understand
I won't let you down
This peaceful and beautiful town
Our covenant's magical centerpiece
As long as you keep me around
I will gladly do as you please
There are almost no dark secrets
Just possibly, maybe a few
Almost no dark secrets
Except for me
I suppose
That is true
Mission accomplished
It appears the forcefield was shut down
Involuntarily
By children playing
Near the generator
So there's no traitor
I'm so glad
Mmh I like it when you pat my head
Look at the stars above
Still some hours left
Before the spell fades
And I'm dragged back from
This peaceful and beautiful town
Our covenant's magical centerpiece
As long as you keep me around
I will gladly do as you please
There are almost no dark secrets
Just possibly, maybe a few
Almost no dark secrets
Except for me
I suppose
That is true
You know not many of my kind
Would be open to this idea
Usually we're more inclined
To much darker deeds
My sisters started teasing me
But I couldn't care less
They are calling me
A domesticated demoness
And I kind of like the sound of that
The sound of your voice
In between the ambient noise
So serene
This peaceful and beautiful town
Our home
Our magical centerpiece
This beacon of hope that we found
Can keep a demon at ease
There are almost no dark secrets
Just possibly, maybe a few
Almost no dark secrets
Except for me
I suppose
That is true
And I wish I could just go out there
Be myself
Undisguised
In broad daylight
Hiding almost no dark secrets
Except my love for you
That's alright
03 - Caravan
Rest for a while
There is no point
To return to the road ahead
Stay blessed for a while
Curses and trouble enough
Where you’re going to
And the dancers all moved on
Without you there is no song
Ooh-oh
There is no song
The place you are going to
Even demons fear
Memories drain away
And dreams disappear
But even darkness carries a light
Just lift your eyes
When your feet despair of the road
Look for the caravan
Fortunes are told
Futures held under the table
When you burned your last line of hope
Look for the caravan
Ooh-oh-oh
The caravan
A whole jar of hope to buy
With a lover’s sigh
A string full of second tries
If you part with a lie
You can bend the road up ahead
Or call to the dead
When your feet despair of the road
Look for the caravan
Fortunes are told
Futures held under the table
When you burned your last line of hope
Look for the caravan
Ooh-oh-oh
The caravan
When your feet despair of the road
Look for the caravan
Fortunes are told
Futures held under the table
When you burned your last line of hope
Look for the caravan
Ooh-oh-oh
Ooh-oh-oh
Ooh-oh-oh
The caravan
04 - The PoWers That CoNtrol You
Fireworks
Celebrating yet another success
Another profitable venture
I gotta hand it to you
This show is flamboyant
Perhaps you are truly clairvoyant
They're all awestruck
But is it just luck
I don't think so
No I don't think so
I know your secrets
Know who you meet with
I know how deep this corruption runs
The great lengths you would go to
How ruthless you've become
It is safe to say
Safe to say that
I know you
You let in
The powers that control you
You would not rescind
The oath that allowed them through
The powers that control you
Seemingly out of nowhere
You rose to the top
The very top of society
After a variety
Of competitors dropped
So many fortunate events
Naturally not by your hands
They all believed this to be true
Except for me
Because I know you
You let in
The powers that control you
You would not rescind
The oath that allowed them through
The powers that control you
Yes I know you
You let in
The powers that control you
You would not rescind
The oath that allowed them through
The powers that control you
You let in
The powers that control you
You would not rescind
The oath that brought you back
And that keeps you attached
To the powers that
The powers that control you
05 - Please Tell Me More
Step inside
Close the door
It is so cold outside
So cold outside
Sit with me
In front of the fireplace
Share with me the tales
Of your journey
Rumor has it you have been
To the other side
Could it really be
Could it really be
Tell me of this world
I could never see
Let me be a part
Of your journey
I have offered you my hospitality
Now please tell me more
Please tell me more
Tell me of this world
That wasn't meant for me
Yes please tell me
Please tell me more
Please tell me more
Do you like
The smell of the incense
Someone brought it here
Someone brought it here
Someone much like you
Who came to visit me
Told me of their tales
And did never leave
Forgive me
That was in jest
Now please tell me more
Please tell me more
Tell me of this world
That wasn't meant for me
Yes please tell me
Please tell me more
Please tell me more
I have offered you my hospitality
Now please tell me more
Please tell me more
Tell me of this world
That wasn't meant for me
Yes please tell me
Please tell me
Please tell me more
06 - Fire Be Mine
On the path long ago
On the journey home
And the snow-covered hills
They are calling her
To return
Fire be mine
Could it be my time
Will the road let me go
And take me home
Will the road let me go and take me home
Will the road take me home
Fire be mine
Bless me with your burning graces
Help me be kind
Melt away the death and decay
I leave behind
Be mine
Let me feel your warm embraces
Help me through time
Release my family
Return my memories
They are mine
Dear child my hands are tied
Divinity does not equal might
A balance struck long ago
Promised you to eternal snow
Eternal snow
What can I do
Where else can I go
Every road I have taken
Succumbed to the snow
Every rite that you asked for
I have prayed, I have chosen
Left only disaster
Everything’s frozen
Since the dawn of time
Dear child
I’ve upheld this contract
The fire won’t start
Until you make contact
With your counterpart
I have been to the edge of the world
Found broken promises and grief
My hopes and dreams
Would latch on to your words
As they promised me relief
If only I’d
Find the hearth of the firesoul
Find the hearth of the firesoul
Find the hearth of the firesoul
Fire
Fire
Fire be mine
On the path the path long ago
On my journey home
And the snow-covered hills
They are calling me
To return
Imploring me
To return
I remember that shelter
In the hills far from here
The ember I held there
Instilled primal fear
So I dropped it and ran
And prayed
That it would disappear
Fire be mine
Has it been my time
Did the road let me go
And I didn’t know
Then you must go and return
To the hearth of the firesoul
Find the hearth
Find the hearth
Of the fire firesoul
The hearth of the firesoul
But what if my prayers
Were answered for once
If it did disappear
If the fire is gone
Oh dear child you cannot fathom
What that would mean
If the ember’s warmth
Was never to be seen again
The world would end
And thus would end the curse
So for better or worse
This journey
Would not extend
Fire be mine
07 - DoWnWard DoWNWARD
It’s all arranged
We gaze below
Moments until
The ready, set, go
We are prepared
Once more
What are we waiting for
We have been waiting on the top
Yes we have seen the light
Don’t even think that we forgot
The thrill of this thrillride
Patience is wearing thin now
When will it begin
We await release
When at last the hand appears
Gravity calls and off we go
Downward, downward
Towards the unknown
To the left
To the right
Down a steep incline
Downward, downward
All the time
Our world is a marvelous wonderland
Layers upon layers which twist and bend
To form a track that seems to never end
Gravity calls
We cross forks, ramps and drop down
There’s always more
And no stop to be found
The contraptions help us
Stay away from the ground
And we fly defying gravity
For a brief while
But this doesn’t feel quite right
Gravity
Gravity
Gravity calls
Downward, downward
Towards the unknown
To the left
To the right
Down a steep incline
Downward, downward
All the time
08 - GETTING AWAY WITH IT
(We keep)
(Getting getting)
(Getting away with it)
(We keep getting away with it)
Only two more hands
There’s a one in five chance
And we have to hit it twice
But that’s alright
Because the thing is
We keep getting away with it
Getting away with
We keep getting away with it
So you failed again
But this is not the end
Well, actually
I suppose it is
Again
Maybe you should have played those tens
When you had the chance
Hindsight is 20/20
Which is the points
You were short incidentally
(Oh if only)
Oh if only you had more
Skill
Luck
Knowledge
(Oh if only)
Or perception
You know
(You were like us)
Not unlike us
Because
We keep
Getting getting
Getting away with it
We keep getting away with it
We keep getting
Getting away with it
Getting away with it
We keep getting
Getting away with it
Probability
(Such a high probability)
So many ranks and suits to see
(Look at this beautiful queen)
Such colorful diversity
(Two of each suit)
It’s just not what you need
(What do you mean)
Here’s an observation
You’re lacking deck manipulation
(Hang them all)
Just imagine what life would be
(Hang them all)
Had you removed these twos and threes
And drew that
Polychrome nine
Relieved for a while
Poor decisions
Terrible planning
Bad luck
Unlike us
Because
We keep
Getting getting
Getting away with it
We keep getting away with it
We keep getting
Getting away with it
Getting away with it
We keep getting
Getting away with it
We save for interest
But one reroll is free
Yes we value the economy
A fool and temperance
Oh that’s funny
Good thing we bought that gift card
For the money
We find a seal
In every other standard pack
While all you get
Is a wildcard jack
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh if only
(Oh if only)
Oh if only you had more
Skill
Luck
Knowledge
(Oh if only)
Or perception
You know
(You were like us)
Like us
Because
We keep
Getting getting
Getting away with it
We keep getting away with it
We keep getting
Getting away with it
Getting away with it
We keep getting
Getting away with it
09 - ONLY SANCTUARY
Your towns will burn
The earth tremble
Dark clouds appear
The horrors that rise from the sea
Will be merely the preamble
To the doom that’s to come
Once the legion is called
I have seen it all
Destruction, war and death
But there is still time to react
The one way out
Is the nautical route
Make haste and attack
The alliance port
Take their ships and sail forth
And whatever you do
Don’t turn back
Just sail
Sail and cross the sea
It’s your only sanctuary
Deliverance in these distant lands
The place where you’ll be free
The visions
From your far seer’s dreams
Show and reveal
Where to flee
Your only sanctuary
Out there you will find
A continent made for your kind
A barren landscape unrefined
Peace of mind
There is nothing to fear
Unless you choose to stay here
Then your pain shall be legendary
Sail and cross the sea
It’s your only sanctuary
Deliverance in these distant lands
The place where you’ll be free
The visions
From your far seer’s dreams
Show and reveal
Where to flee
Your only sanctuary
Yes the world will distort
Though some time has been bought
Destruction a foregone conclusion
Survival here a mere delusion
Sail
Cross the sea
It’s your only sanctuary
Deliverance in these distant lands
The place where you’ll be free
The visions
From your far seer’s dreams
Show and reveal
Where to flee
Your only sanctuary
Your only sanctuary
10 - THERE IS NO ESCAPE
You rely on me once more
All darkness spent
Down the window we drop
Will it go like all the times before
Or will we make it to the top
There is no escape
I have witnessed it first hand
And my brethren shared their stories
Accounts of all these failed attempts
The tales of your many ends
Remember the first time you tried
You made it three rooms in when you died
Back then it felt like fate
That there's truly no escape
Little godling don't give up
Behold the power of love
That's right
Too much at stake for you to give up
You need a little heartbreak
And a bit of luck
Not like back then
No not like back then
Do you
Do you still remember when
You set foot on that spiky trap
Before that big club sent you back home
The exploding mines on which you stepped
And made you think you’d never learn
Step by step
You would progress
But when the whip cracked
You dodged too late
Feeling
There is no escape
No escape
There is no escape
Oh, welcome back
Welcome to my island
Don't mind the fire
I am glad that chance
Has brought you here once again
I really admire how you fight
For your dream
No matter how dire things may seem
I guess it helps that someone waits for you
Unlike me
That is not entire true
I truly hope you get to
See her soon
A song of the heart broken
Take one of these
As a token of my respect
And don't forget
That I am here to assist you
As long as you persevere
I am sorry to have missed you
The last time you were here
A tall order indeed
But just look how strong you have grown
One day you will succeed because
You are not alone
For we are here to assist you
This song
This song
Take it with you
Take it with you
Take it all the way to the top
All the way
Never stop
Never surrender
Look forward don't look back
Yes we had a rather bad
Experience with that
Focus on what lies ahead
What choice will you make
Whose call will you know
Which path will you take
How will the fight with the hydra go
What do you think
Will you struggle like in the early days
Will it be over in a blink
Head by head
Volley, fire, dash, dash, dash
Keep moving and attack
And do not hesitate or
There is no escape
No escape
There is no escape
The proudest
Most noble warriors
The greatest of all men
Urgh
This place again
Little godling don’t give up
Take the artisan’s hammer
And oooh
Oooh
Flurry Shot
Bring them on
It is my time to shine
You will see
Why they call me
Heart-Seeker
Oh what a thrill
That is right
It is heartbreak time
And it’s you who we invite
Take them on
With my heartbreak strike
And go for the eyes
It is heartbreak time
And it’s you who we invite
Day and night
I mean down there
Who can tell anyway
I will witness it first hand
And tell my brethren your story
Accounts of all the glory
You will find in these lands
But let us not get
Ahead of ourselves quite yet
There are still some major battles
To be had
We should make a battle plan
The big one will
Assess the situation
Discard that information
And then charge into walls
Walls
While the other one hides
Behind his shield
And throws that spear
By the way I hear
That his spear
Is not the only thing about him
Oh-oh-oh
That is rather thin
Oh-oh-oh this will be
An easy win
You are not prepared
An easy win
You are not prepared
Why would you say this
This is not much of a battle plan
You stand no chance
Overconfidence will bring your end
When you face the champions
Breath by breath
Slash jump attack
They will pierce you
Break you
Obliterate you
There is no escape
For you
No escape
Wait
They already left
Hmpf, foolish
Well then
Let’s get this over with
Stubborn son of mine
Draw your blade
Or whatever you wield this time
Hello there
And whatever support
You have brought
Hello there
It’s all for naught
Like every time before
Did you enjoy the ransacking
Of my domain
Yes indeed I’m afraid
You’re entirely to blame
Do you think this realm runs by itself
It’s busy enough without your help
Oh little godling
Do not lose heart
I see
You found yourself
The goddess of love
Don’t be taunted
Keep a steady aim at him
Urgh
Where did you find that old thing
Now now
There is no need to be impolite
Quite right
We have a fight to fight
Fight to fight
Make sure to go for his shiny bits
No
We’re not there yet
We’re gods, boy
Gods
Though you’re merely
The god of talking back to me
It seems
You will see
One only leaves
On my authority
The tides of this conflict have turned
Remember the lessons you’ve learned
Use it all
Greater call
You have no jurisdiction here
Oh-oh see
He’s down on his knee
Now go, go go
This isn’t over yet boy
I guess I forgot
You never seem to know when
It is time to stop
I will return you below again
You should have known
Will you cease this pandemonium
Once the river takes you home
Death by death
I’ll send you back
Till that thick head of yours
Accepts your fate
There is no escape
No escape
Is there truly no escape
No matter how long you defy death
Defy me
Defy, defy, defy
Is there no escape
There is no escape
