Epilogue [Bonus Track]

about

Originally to be the end to the album as a whole, I ended up scrapping this before I had even finished it.
I felt that this track gave too much away to the listener. There's a lot of straight voice acting going on and I couldn't quite find anything that I could use instead of that to properly convey what was happening in the music.
So now I've re-recorded some of the vocals, re-mastered it, and given it a proper ending.
I love this track to bits and it showcases perfectly what I want to do with the music that I write, but it just didn't flow with the tone of the rest of the album. But I just couldn't leave it out.

lyrics

There's just one thing I have to ask before I go.
Answer me this before you wipe me out.
I know that you are lying;
I know that's not the truth.
I know it, I can see it in your eyes!

Just tell me the truth for once in your lives.
Just give me the answer in this life!
This is my dying wish,
You know that I am owed it by the state.

You don't think I deserve this?
An explanation, that's all I'm asking for!
But you.
You can't even give me the truth before I die.
You, sitting so high and mighty in your thrones are still scared of me,
Even now, when my life is about to end.

Oh, but it's not just me, is it?
You're scared of all of us.
You need me to die to set an example to the rest of them/
Well, it won't work.
I've built them up to be stronger than that.
I'm more than just an image, I'm an idea.
And you cannot kill an idea.

Just tell me the truth for once in your lives!
Just give me the answers in this life!
This is my dying wish.
In our Grim Futuristic Reality!
