Author's Note: If you have read my tribute to FFVII's music, then this is more of the same. If you have not read my tribute to FFVII's music then this is how I wrote this: went to a site and downloaded all the FFX MIDI's available (which was pretty much all the music that ever plays in the game), listened to each and every single MIDI repeatedly, listened to all the MIDI's again but this time with my eyes closed and wrote down how the music made me feel-what it said to me-and ended up with this odd sort-of retelling of the game's story.

I just thought I would share this, but if it is breaking any rules please let me know so I can remove it. Since the whole thing is fairly obviously from Tidus' POV (except for the last 2 paragraphs, which are Yuna) I didn't feel the need to put character names next to paragraphs. Also, in this one it's pretty easy to tell what song I was listening to when I wrote certain parts, so you shouldn't need me to spell it out for you :P

FFX Composite Song-fic

I would like to say everything, but I'm afraid there isn't enough time left. Please hear me…before it is too late. This, is my story.

Our path of repentance is long, but do not fear; hope. Someday the dream will end, so make it last while it is here. Never forget those fleeting dreams of the past. Cherish them and the moment of warmth they bring. For if there is no dream – no hope will be either; darkness shall consume all.

Let's go back to the beginning, to my home where everything started … YOU! You're dead—die and stay that way already!Though the deceased laugh we must bravely advance. The soon to be dead give us permitted passage and ambition to those who already roam the farplane. Why does it have to be so confusing? Can't I just have fun? – like riding a chocobo or joining the blitz ball gamblers? With this revealed truth weighing on me it seems wrong now just like the silence before the storm. *Sigh* hopeless desire…the end is almost here.

Crazy! Why must I fight you again? Die and stay that way already! Feel the rush; blitz into the otherworld. Lu, always sad but no crying now – beautifully strong ok? The dream is almost over. A decisive battle awaits. Don't give up! Fight! Keep Going! Remember the fallen! Our future will be bright if we win!

But – but – no, why is this happening? Everything would be fine once Sin was beaten, so why? Don't go… What about us? What will happen to our story? …

You're gone but it'll be ok, won't it?
