Your Time Ends Now
Hush now, little flower...
The sun is setting, moon rising high.
Watching you ever second...
Every minute
Every mistake
Every failure
The Judgement.
Is here.
Time always ends for everyone some day,
And your time ends...
...now...
Fight the coming fall for as long as you want
The fires will not flee, the vultures will never scatter
Your corpse will find the dirt
And effigies shall burn away your sins
Your ashes will taint the dirt
Your time ends now
Every story has a conclusion, so why bother running from it?
Let my blade carve through what remains, and hang your cadaver high!
I have lived for this moment
Every second
Every minute
Every hour
Every day!
And finally, you time will end tonight!
Fight the coming fall for as long as you want
The fires will not flee, the vultures will never scatter
Your corpse will find the dirt
And effigies shall burn away your sins
Your ashes will taint the dirt
Your time ends now
The pain you wrought upon me shall finally return to you!
Everything that goes around comes around eventually!
I will kill you!
I will destroy your memory!
Nothing will survive my wrath!
I am the Spectre of your Mistakes!
You have had your time...
And now...
Your time ends.
Fight the coming fall for as long as you want
The fires will not flee, the vultures will never scatter
Your corpse will find the dirt
And effigies shall burn away your sins
Your ashes will taint the dirt
Your time ends now
Your...
...time...
...ends...
...now.
Author Note - Something pretty different, you see. I have been wondering about doing some of these for a while, and I have decided - screw it! Why not, did a couple in the past.
If you could not tell - yes this is the Spectre's theme, and I think I managed to get the lyrics to be on the same level as the RWBY songs. It is a bit like All Things Must Die in the way it would be sung and the instruments in the background. And I think the words Your Time Ends Now suits that mercenary pretty well.
I want to do some more of these, for characters like Kassius, Ortega and even the Knights of Grimm some time when I come up with something.
What did you think? This is my first real attempt of writing a song, so I hope it was good. (And yes the itallics stand for the chorus.)
Many thanks! Still working on the next chapter for Act 4, I promise. Just felt like giving these a go.
