Nico di Angelo: Footfalls
Thud. Thud. Thud.
Your feet pound hard against the earth.
Thud. Thud. Thud.
You're not sure where you're headed now.
Thud. Thud. Thud.
Worst news you have ever heard.
Thud. Thud. Thud.
Forget no friends. You have no family now.
Once you were happy.
Now you are sad.
Scratch that despair.
Now you're just mad.
They will fear your name.
Now they know who you are.
You've got someone to blame.
And your heart is scarred.
Thud. Thud. Thud.
They made a binding oath.
Thud. Thud. Thud.
In your eyes, it was broken.
Thud. Thud. Thud.
Pain shows in your eyes.
Thud. Thud. Thud.
You wished you'd kept the token.
That showed that once you were happy.
Now you are sad.
Scratch that despair.
Now you're just mad.
You know how to trade.
A soul for a soul.
Your future is laid.
Though your heart's not now whole.
