[00:00.00]
[00:26.79]I once felt so sure
[00:32.74]As you ref’d the Game
[00:35.07]Beside me, fellow Reaper (rhymes with sure)
[00:39.77]As each day’d subside
[00:42.82]Something in your eyes
[00:45.56]Called to me an angel’s flame
[00:48.43]And how distant the skies

[00:52.49]I’m never gonna run again
[00:55.00]Ashen hands can’t take the baton
[00:58.51]Your family you’d cash in (pronounce en rhymes with again)
[01:01.17]You knew I was no fool
[01:04.30]I should’ve known better than the hot passion (pash-en rhymes with again)
[01:07.52]And sparked no one, but feelings drag on
[01:11.07]So I’m never gonna run again
[01:13.68]No Conductor for you, oh

[01:29.71]Time can never mend
[01:35.73]The slow burn charring of a dear friend
[01:42.55]To my sync and Soul
[01:45.69]What-ifs take a toll
[01:48.37]There’s no alternate timeline
[01:51.49]Only burnt out coal

[01:55.34]I’m never gonna run again
[01:57.84]Ashen hands can’t take the baton
[02:01.33]You claim that you were cozen
[02:03.97]Yet still wanted to rule
[02:07.13]You should have done better than what was chosen
[02:09.05](Shoulda done better, yeah)
[02:10.30]Declined the Angelic promotion (promo-shon rhymes with baton)
[02:13.86]So I’m never gonna run again
[02:16.46]I’m Conductor to you, oh

[02:25.63]Now I’m your ball and chain

[02:45.04]Today, Shinjuku seems so loud
[02:48.26]I wish that it could make me proud
[02:51.53]Maybe it’s better this way
[02:54.46]We’d hurt each other with the things we want to say
[02:57.65]We could have built it up together
[03:00.84]We could have shared our cup forever
[03:04.00]But now, my sake sits above (sah-keh)
[03:08.97]No love

[03:10.97]And I’m never gonna run again
[03:13.64]Ashen hands can’t take the baton
[03:17.16]You still wanted to ascend
[03:19.82]Was what we had a fluke?
[03:23.02]I should have tried harder than to run back then
[03:26.06]But you were gone long before that con
[03:29.71]So I’m never gonna run again
[03:32.34]I’m Conducting this fugue, oh

[03:49.65](When time does pass)
[03:52.92]When time does pass
[04:02.08](When time does pass)
[04:05.03]Perhaps we’ll sweep the ash, the ash
[04:09.87]And rekindle us at last?
