WE DID IT AROS!!!!

I wrote a song from the perspective of Jolie Ruewen

You guys voted for a song to Brant after her death, so here it is! I’ve been looking for an excuse to use this chord progression (which is ironic, cause I actually messed up the piano on the last chorus in this recording). Anyway, I hope you enjoy it! Thank you all for your support!

Lyrics under the cut:

I knew I was playing with fire

I shouldn’t be shocked I got burned

I understood you when no one else did

And I know my love was returned

I know I felt dangerously guilty

I should have known you were acting strange

The world wasn’t kind to you, it wasn’t fair

But I can’t forgive how you’ve changed

I still see our shadows on the walls

Of every place we’ve been

And I still hear the sweet, sweet words

That flowed to me from your pen

But our end was the beginning

Of something I can’t ignore

The scars are not the reason

I don’t recognize you anymore

She is one way that I haunt you

I know you see me on her face 

I hope that you also see all that I stood for

And think of the past you’ve erased

I still see our shadows on the walls

Of every place we’ve been

And I still hear the sweet, sweet words

That flowed to me from your pen

But our end was the beginning

Of something I can’t ignore

The scars are not the reason

I don’t recognize you anymore

I hope you never forget me

Cause I know that you’ll always care

I hope you imagine what I’d say to you

Doing all these things if I was there

I’d say I still see our shadows on the walls

Of every place we’ve been

And I still hear the sweet, sweet words

That flowed to me from your pen

But our end was the beginning

Of something I can’t ignore

The scars are not the reason

I don’t recognize you anymore

PROPAGANDA BELOW.

Scottish, obviously. Some people say English, but listen. The English always get the rich, classist, classy, world-ending snobby villain man. As a Scottish person, I ADORE THIS TYPE OF CHARACTER. I enjoy these characters a lot, and obsess over them a lot. Unfortunately, they almost ALWAYS are English. Give us Scots representation in the evil middle management snob/regency watcher siren man….also Jonah’s ginger, of course he’s Scottish.

I feel like most people talk about Jonah Magnus being an Englishman, but his original Institute was in Edinburgh (Scotland) so now I’m curious

aw, I love you too Michael distortion
