Title: Requiem: Dead Man's Dance - For CYT
Author: RurouniTriv
Notes: I was running around town today, and I got this stuck in my head. I thought at first that the first verse would be the whole thing, but then it kind of grew. Think of it as a song for the rebels to sing.
Shinigami calls and the dead men dance
Earth set the stage upon which we prance
Marching to war, peace is lost once again
Sometimes forgetting's the greatest of sins
Lost and abandoned he grew up hard
Give him an inch and he'll take the whole yard
Solo's young Kid is now dancing alone
But he's never forgotten L2 is his home
Shinigami calls and the dead men dance
Earth set the stage upon which we prance
Marching to war, peace is lost once again
Sometimes forgetting's the greatest of sins
When others ignored our station's dire plight
He stood there beside us and fought the good fight
He knows what it's like to feel hunger and pain
And he won't see us suffer for the Earther's foul gain
Shinigami calls and the dead men dance
Earth set the stage upon which we prance
Marching to war, peace is lost once again
Sometimes forgetting's the greatest of sins
He can't do it alone so let's follow him, boys!
We've suffered in silence, now let's go make some noise!
L2 failed him once, we won't fail him again -
We're going to fight and we're going to win!
Shinigami calls and the dead men dance
Earth set the stage upon which we prance
Marching to war, peace is lost once again
Sometimes the Devil's your only friend.
