Doomed (Live Version [original]) Lyrics by Lumistarlight

0

DAVE (spoken):
They're dead, Rose!
They're dead and there's nothing we can do to bring them back

DAVE (sung):
We'll never move the front line with a doomed plan of attack
I'm killing imps and killing ogres, climbing ever higher
But the gates are jammed and all this heat is just a funeral pyre

This tactic is a wash we've got to find another way
I don't want to play out this charade: another wasted day
We've been trying, we've been searching, we'vе turned over evеry rock
On every level we could reach, but can't you see the clock
Keeps tapping out a rhythm, getting weaker every hour
The pendulum is on a slant, the notes are playing sour

I can level grind forever, you can gaze until you're blind
But the skies above are empty and there's nothing left to find
In this game without it's players there's no use in keeping score
As we circle 'round the finish with no winning anymore

ROSE:
Burn me out, one dying light
Watch as stars fade into night
Try to salvage our defeat
It's almost time to sleep
We're living in a feeble line
Waiting for our time to die
And it might be a relief
From this endless grief

There is nothing left here for us
Go and save them, reign victorious
And leave me here alone
With the cold inside my bones

DAVE:
I can turn back time again
And buy another chance to win
Sacrifice another life to hang on
To the hope that in
Another time our fortunes may reverse
To set things right
Even if the two of us
Will never live to see the light

The timelines pile up, I'm standing on a swelling grave
In the thick of all these failures, what's another dying Dave?
But every time I have to watch the world around me fade away
The ones I wished I could protect drowning in the fray

You deserve a better hero, someone I could never be
Maybe when we go back I'll have been a better me
And maybe one last death is all it takes 'til we survive
And next time I won't fail and I will keep you all alive

In this game the knight jumps backwards to be taken like a pawn
So the players can move forward after I am dead and gone

ROSE:
Time for the doomed to rue their fate
Why did we play this game?
There is no one left to tell me it's okay
And hold me close
I know that there is no hope left for us
Yet still I see a light for someone else

Burn me out, one dying light
Watching stars fade into night
Try to salvage our defeat
It's almost time to sleep
We're living in a feeble line
Waiting for our time to die
And it might be a relief
From this endless grief

There is nothing left here for us
Go and save them, reign victorious
And leave me here alone
With the cold inside my bones

DAVE:
Burn me out
I watch the stars
They fade into the night
We stay just waiting
For our time to die
But I can't go back
And make it all worthwhile
