Play Fair and Die

by Signalflair

A song written from L's point of view, shortly before his death.

If I've learned one thing in my life

It's if you play fair then you will die

If you find the facts, then you will pay

If you win the game

Say goodbye

You know when you're almost through

When the monsters come around

Even the innocent shall fall

If they dare defy the wrongs

Never can you hide

For you don't know when they come

So remember this one truth

Kira is coming for you too

Nothing could even stall your death

When the enemy draws ever near

Not a place on Earth is left to hide

So you'd best hurry now

And say goodbye

You know when you're almost through

When the monsters come around

Even the innocent shall fall

If they dare defy the wrongs

Never can you hide

For you don't know when they come

So remember this one truth

Kira is coming for you too

We already knew our fates

When we fell to the floor

There's no lesson to be learned

For the contradiction

Don't mislead the innocent

Let them stay gold for now

But in our hardened world

Play fair and you will die

You know when you're almost through

When the monsters come around

Even the innocent shall fall

If they dare defy the wrongs

Never can you hide

For you don't know when they come

So remember this one truth

Kira is coming for you too

Play fair and die
