I just want to say that I don't see Kuja as the psychotic, demented monster some people think he is. I think the poor guy can't control the destruction he is causing-that it's something that takes him over without his control, much to his horror. These lyrics are based on that and written from Kuja's perspective.
Kuja's Theme-Original Lyrics
Upside down,
Thrown all 'round,
What have I
become now?
I don't know
anything about
myself anymore.
{bass clef piano part}
A destruction machine-
I can no longer look
at myself in the mirror.
My hands have taken lives,
and as they felt my wrath,
I tossed my head and laughed.
Anger controls my mind,
My soul I cannot find.
What is this monster that
unvoluntarily causes me to inflict
such despair without care?
What is my purpose here?
I am filled up with fear.
My actions are out of my hands now,
What to do?
'Shamed inside,
Want to hide,
Scared of truth,
Twisted mind.
The line 'tween
wrong and right
blurs and fades
slowly gray.
I search inside and yet
I only find more pain.
Is this what causes me
to act the way I do?
Fits of rage eat away
at my soul,
no control.
Pillars in my kingdom
have started to crumble.
Can't get away from this,
Don't know when madness will
return to wreak havoc on
the world.
