The Trial - Green Edition Lyrics by Austin Wintory, Tripod

Stray Gods: The Roleplaying Musical (Green Edition) [Original Game Soundtrack]

2023

[ATHENA, spoken]
Yes, it's me
(sung)
It's me, of course it's me
The one who gets it done
Don't you see
It had to be...
You all turn away
When I gut the fish
Then you cry "Hooray"
Once it's on the dish
That's how we do this
Yes, we
Yes, you and me
I have always cared for you
I'll always do all these things for you
All these things that you
Are not prepared to do
[GRACE & ATHENA]
You, it's not just you
(Time to put you in check)
There are other idols too
(You irritating speck!)
See them there, aren't you aware
(Sorry little bird, it's time...)
All these people care?
(Time to wring your neck!)
[APOLLO]
This I know: once the Muse is dead
Questions creep, they'll burrow in my head
What did I do? What didn't I do?
All this time, you've shown us what to see
Wisdom, that's what you bring
Is that still true?
[ATHENA]
This coming from you?
You're lost, little boy, you've lost all perspective
You're ready to throw this away, you call that wise?
[GRACE]
Nobody need to make a sacrifice
[ATHENA]
None of you see!
So it's down to me
It's fine, I'll take all the blame
I'll take all the pain
Think you see it all?
You just see a scrap
You wanna make the call?
You need to hold the map
You cloistered children
It's time for you, and all who stand with you
Yes you too! Form a queue
Time to follow through
[GRACE]
I won't have you dying for me
It's not how this should work, I need you to see
You're lost in a moment, lost in a song
But the thinking's all wrong
This whole sacrifice deal
You can live without needing to kill
[APOLLO]
So romantic, me and you
I wouldn't wanna be cut to pieces with just anybody
[EROS]
Aphrodite, she'd stand with Grace too
Grace, showed her mercy, when she didn't have to show mercy
[HERMES]
Terribly sorry but I'm afraid I'll need to stand here too
I really need to, please do accept my apology
[ATHENA]
Of course, it's me
Because of me, this prophecy would come to be
My Olympus is gone
And you're all looking on
At a stranger wearing my face
My Olympus is gone
Now I'm some other one
Just how long has she been in place?
[GRACE]
You set of hoping you could get to somewhere right
But it's been too many years since the mainland was in sight
[ATHENA]
There was a voice, in me, that shouted
"Athena, you be strong"
"Be strong, no cost is great enough"
It was wrong, I was wrong
I was wrong and now I don't know what the right thing is
I leave it up to you what to do with this
[GRACE, spoken]
I forgive you, Athena
[ATHENA]
Look into me
[GRACE]
I know what I see
[ATHENA]
Yes, a monster
[GRACE]
I've met monsters who weren't monsters
[ATHENA]
I'm a monster to me
I'm sorry Grace, I'm sorry all of you
I wish Calliope could know it too
[GRACE]
She does, she hears you
