We Are: We Were
"You are young
and I... I am old
i have began to wither
and you are not just growing
leave this world and find a new one
they are not the only ones who need a hero"
"No one will miss me will they?
will they even realize im gone?
FATHER WHO ARE WE... What are we?"
"My son we are no longer needed here
our ansestors were the best
we... WE ARE THE BEST
they abandon us for power to scorch the earth
Then we shall leave"
"But What of Heavan father?"
"WHAT OF THEM THEY LEFT US!"
"So we leave to the stars
embrace the kiss of reluctancy
ignorance is not my path father i stay"
"I know Son
I knew you would you have grown
I have withered
you are strong
I am weak
we are not gods
we are not immortal
we are mearly a legacy
with this memory's will fade young
and with this i die"
"I know father"
