Yuna's Prism:
I stumble toward the mirror
To see what I could be
And what I've become
"I've done it. I have become a Summoner."
My path is set as I take up my staff
The prism glass shimmers around me
I long to break free
Just so I can see
The shattered shell
Of the one who fell
The scattered reflection
Of the real and true image of me
"People die and Yuna dances. When will she stop dancing?"
I dance for the dead
So others can move ahead
I summon spirits
To cleanse the world's sins
"I will defeat Sin. I must defeat Sin."
The prism glass shimmers around me
I long to break free
Just so I can see
The shattered shell
Of the one who fell
The scattered reflection
Of the real and true image of me
Images of the past flood my mind
A proposal sends a chill down my spine
Do I end my pilgrimage?
Or do I continue walking my father's path?
The prism glass shimmers around me
I long to break free
Just so I can see
The shattered shell
Of the one who fell
The scattered reflection
Of the real and true image of me
"Kill them."
"No!"
Emotions run high
I fall
I fly
"Don't worry, I can fly."
"Yuna!"
"Believe."
The prism glass shimmers around me
I long to break free
Just so I can see
The shattered shell
Of the one who fell
The scattered reflection
Of the real and true image of me
"I want my journey to be full of laughter."
I laugh
I cry
I live
Don't let me die
"Stay with me, until the end."
"Not until the end. Always."
"Always, then."
The prism glass shimmers around me
I long to break free
Just so I can see
The shattered shell
Of the one who fell
The scattered reflection
Of the real and true image of me
We cast away our beliefs
And I make a startling discovery
A truth I don't want to face
"Yuna, I have to go."
"No…"
I fall to the ground
For you can no longer catch me
As I struggle to my feet
I confess to you
"I love you."
"…Maybe that's why it hurts. When I think about us never being together again at all…I'm afraid."
The prism glass shimmers around me
I long to break free
Just so I can see
The shattered shell
Of the one who fell
The scattered reflection
Of the real and true image of me
"If we should get separated, just whistle. I'll come running. I promise."
I look in the mirror
And see someone new
A songstress on a stage
Searching the crowd for your face
"I can hear you."
The prism glass shimmers around me
I long to break free
Just so I can see
The shattered shell
Of the one who fell
The scattered reflection
Of the real and true image of me
Nightmares from another life flood my mind
I have no place to hide
Illusions and lies surround me
Until truth no longer exists
"No...I don't want this anymore."
"I'm all alone!"
"Where are you? I can't see you!"
"You can hear me."
"Is that…really you?"
"It is me, Shuyin. I've waited so long, Lenne."
"But I'm not Lenne."
"Don't touch me."
The prism glass shimmers around me
I long to break free
Just so I can see
The shattered shell
Of the one who fell
The scattered reflection
Of the real and true image of me
"So there is a connection. But wait, everything's all wrong. He never heard. The one person she wanted to tell, he never heard her words."
Words from 1,000 years ago
That Lenne never got to say
Are sung through me.
"They'll hold you forever! One thousand words."
Bringing a reunion of two lost souls
"1,000 years and this moment is all we get?"
"This moment's enough."
The prism glass shimmers around me
I long to break free
Just so I can see
The shattered shell
Of the one who fell
The scattered reflection
Of the real and true image of me
So now I walk alone
But I'm stronger
I soar higher
Fly faster
And laugh louder
"It all began when I this sphere…of you."
The prism glass shimmers around me
I long to break free
Just so I can see
The shattered shell
Of the one who fell
The scattered reflection
Of the real and true image of me
"It's you. You were with me the whole time. But you know, I'm not worried anymore. You'll always have a place, here in my heart. We'll always be connected."
"Are you real?"
"I think so."
"You're back."
"I am back. I'm home."
"Welcome home. Yes, home."
"You know, you've changed."
"Well, you've missed a few things."
"I wanna hear everything!"
"Well, it all began when I saw this sphere of you."
The prism glass falls around me
The real and true image that is me
No longer a reflection
But the real and true image of you
Of me
Yuna
