A Song of Woe:

I once had a family,
I once had a name,
Then something went wrong,
My life, suddenly gone.

Taken away,
To a world anew,
To become someone,
That was true.

***

Trained to fight,
And uphold the right,
For mankind's dawn,
Was drawing near.

Then over the years,
I fought back tears,
To keep from remembering,
Those lost memories.

***

On a distant world,
A tale was told,
Then war was fought,
And many were lost.

But then Ghosts came,
Different, yet the same,
And called me by name,
For I was to blame,

Saying:

***

(Chorus)

Reclaimer, Reclaimer,
Woe unto thee,
For those sacred rings,
To be used by ye.

But, Do beware,
Reclaimer, Reclaimer,
The darkness has spread,
To all the dead.

Reclaimer, Reclaimer!
Save us all,
For without you,
We will fall.

He'll save us, the Human,
Reclaimer, Reclaimer,
His dawn's coming sooner,
For mankind's the same.

Yet, mankind is doomed,
Reclaimer, Reclaimer,
For those who assumed,
They wouldn't be consumed.

The tide is turning,
Reclaimer, Reclaimer,
To win the battle,
Don't blame her, don't hate her.

Just. Save. Her.
