Lyrics The End and the Beginning - Forgive Durden

The End and the Beginning

I’ve been tracing your steps
Along with your dainty exquisite guest
Across mountain land and serpentining seas
These two have been on quite an odyssey
But you’re a fool to think this princess
Could ever really love a couple of poor boys like us
She requires riches recherc
Riding with rodomontading rou’s
Casanovas have charmed with chiffons
So Chichi chased her with their conceited coteries
Maharajahs have magniloquently mouthed
Their love for me through their menageries
She’s been propositioned
Propounded by every pompous prince
Given panniers of peerless pears
And plums, polished
I’ve been seduced with shimmering, sparkling stones
Squired by suitors to sizable chateaus
And oh, I’m the one she chose
I understand how you can love a man of truth
So why don’t you just ask him where he spent his youth?
Oh, look at her face, she really doesn’t see
That you are from the dark and you’ve been lying through your teeth
Anhura, please listen, I really can explain
I meant to tell you sooner, it’s been gnawing at my brain
Now you know the truth but that knowledge shouldn’t change
The nature of our love, we’ve broken through the chains
I’m sure that she would care to hear your acumen
As to how your presence is the reason she is sick
But I suppose it’s in vain, since her life is ending
When I thrust this blade into her heart-a-thumping
Brother, no
Brother, what have I done?
My blade has pierced your side
This was never my intent
O, God, please stay alive
Dear Pallis, you’re my brother
You’ve tried to protect me
But your dagger’s edge finding my flesh
It truly was my destiny
Brother, I was shortsighted
I ignored your cries
You really are the chosen one
The calculated sacrifice
Please listen to my last words
Before I fade away
This is my gift to you
Live for your love every day
Please don’t let your tired heart stop beating
You’re bleeding, just keep breathing
You will take care of this spinning sphere
I’ll disappear and see you in the mirror
Place your hand on mine one last time and kiss me goodbye
Take the love inside my mind before I die
Place your hand on mine one last time and kiss me goodbye
Take the love inside my mind before I die
Before I die, please don’t cry
The mountains seceded
The Light and Dark depleted
We lost Adakias but regained our science
Our world was finally reunited
So this is my cue of where to leave you
Now it’s your story to retell and pass on
Because an idea is only relevant if it’s being thought upon
So remember, never surrender
'Cause the unrelenting constancy of love and hope
Will rescue and restore you from any scope
