Travis, Kill the Engine!

This is our first song, I wrote the lyrics based off of a game titled Shadow of the Colossus.

Pretty brutal looking right?

Basically the main character "Wander" brings his love "Mono" to an alter after she had been sacrificed. In order to bring her back to life by this ominous being he must slay 16 colossi with help of his horse.

Spoiler Alert: Well in the end he realizes that with each monster slain he gradually becomes a colossus himself. Inevitably being slain. The ending credits show a garden being opened upstairs, mono awakes and walks through with her newborn child.

I know your weakness 

It glows the brightest blue

I've waited for the moment

Where I could put my sword to you

I've searched for so many days now

Following this path of light

I need this more than ever

I can't go back until I make things right

And so I walk you through this garden

I walk you home

But still I am shadowed by these remnants

I've killed more than you know

I feel a darkness pull me in

I swear I did it for the best reasons

Believe me I'd do it again

No matter how long I stand there

She lies motionless in white

I'll take what this voice gives me

If it means you'll wake for the next sunrise

And so I stalk you through this garden

I follow you home

But still I am shadowed by these remnants

And while I'm consumed, 

I will defend you, 

No they won't take you, 

We'll fall back into this dark abyss, 

where I'll hold my memories and you hold me

Obviously if you played the game you'd catch the references. Well by the game then fool.

"Yeah I thought so.."
