Inspired by Final Fantasy Tactics.

lyrics

(Lucavi:)
Holder of the Holy Stone, with me do treat
Your spirit and my flesh as one shall merge
Your despair and resentment, their call I heed
Life undying… yours forever
Just make the promise
Once more I ask: with me do treat.

(Ramza:)
In the name of God and nobility
I’ve been thrown into this war
Two lions vie for the throne
and blood soaks the name I uphold

Lord above, where have we gone astray?
Every day, lives are taken away
Who are we to decide?

Shunned by the church and my own family
I must stay true to my beliefs
The world’s torn apart and I can’t find my place
Like a Thirteenth Zodiac

(Delita:)
Open your eyes and you will perceive
The voice of reason inside
Listen but once and you’ll realize
That there is no divide

(Lucavi:)
Dare not oppose us, remember your status
By now you of all should know
Manipulation can be a solution
The end justifies any means

(Ramza:)
Tell me friend where have your ideals gone?
The path of power will claim your soul
With the blood of betrayal and lies

Cast aside, forgotten by history
No one will know what I’ve seen
Demonic stones turning men into slaves
To the Twelve and Thirteenth Zodiac

(Ramza) The legends we believed in were all lies!
(Delita) I won't be used. Those who used me must pay for what they've done!

Spoken from the sword, handed down from the stone…
Spoken from the sword, handed down from the stone

(Ramza:)
Shunned by the church and my own family
I must stay true to my beliefs
The world’s torn apart and I can’t find my place
Like a Thirteenth Zodiac
Cast aside, forgotten by history
(Is this my fate?)
No one will know what I’ve seen
(It’s a nightmare)
Demonic stones turning men into slaves
(They’re mad with greed)
To the Twelve and Thirteenth Zodiac

(Wiegraf) Your ideal is just a dream! You can't fulfill your dreams without power!
(Ramza) Your actions have meaning only if they hold true to your ideals...

The past can never forgive
