Vader, a star wars fanfic

Here is a song for Star Wars, coming out to mark the day that Rouge One comes out. In my mind this has a very operatic piano ballad vibe to it, if that helps capture the sound in your head I hope you enjoy!

"Vader"

Verse 1:

I tried so hard

To be what you wanted

I tried so hard

But I could never understand

I loved and lost, loved and lost

And loved and lost again

I tried to be good

But I'm drowning in my sin

(piano medley)

Verse 2:

You said I needed serenity

But passion's all I know

You said there is only the force

And that I'm destined to be a hero

You said I needed to let go

But all I can do is hold on

You said I needed peace

But there's a war in my mind

Chorus 1:

So I'm giving up on what you wanted

I'm going to forge my own path

The darkness is calling to me

I know there's no going back

So I'm going to embrace the dark side

This is my new destiny

You call it turning evil

I call it being set free

Verse 3:

I did it for love

I did it for hate

You say I let it blind me

But you can't relate

I built a family

I built a life

But you betrayed me

And left me to die

Chorus 2:

So I'm giving up on what you wanted

I'm going to forge my own path

The darkness is calling to me

I know there's no going back

So I'm going to embrace the dark side

This is my new destiny

You call it turning evil

I call it being set free

Choir:

Darkness rising

Vader lives (x4)

Chorus 3:

So I'm giving up on what you wanted

I'm going to forge my own path

The darkness is calling to me

I know there's no going back

So I'm going to embrace the dark side

This is my new destiny

You call it turning evil

I call it being set free

Chorus 4 w/ choir in background:

So I'm giving up on what you wanted Darkness rising

I'm going to forge my own path Darkness rising

The darkness is calling to me Darkness rising

I know there's no going back Vader lives

So I'm going to embrace the dark side Darkness rising

This is my new destiny Darkness rising

You call it turning evil Darkness rising

I call it being set free Vader lives

This was a hell of a lot of fun to write. It sounded way better in my mind than it did on paper, and I love how it turned out on paper. I hope you do too. Thanks for reading! Bye!
