Equivalent Exchange - Behind the Wall lyrics

[Verse 1: Jerome Chance] Gilneas stood all alone, so it remained when Genn took throne Married, then had kids of his own; tenatious, arrogant, victim of pride Refugees requested he fight on their side, in essence denied: sent some for the ride After the war broke his alliance, spit his defiance and built up a wall Sealed off his nation, not all he severed Everything north cut loose as a feather Leaving forever whoever reamained Undead attacked, army was drained He summoned a mage to make something work Who summoned a curse, scourge dispersed The curse was effective, yet was neglected So people he vowed to protect were infected [Hook: Jerome Chance (NuyoRiquena)] Behind the wall (oh, behind the wall [goes on for four lines]) He lost it all Behind it all He lost the wall Behind the wall (oh, he lost it all [goes on for four lines]) He lost it all Behind it all He lost the wall [Verse 2: Jerome Chance] The lord of the lands outside to the north would stand no more — civil war Genn was a victor, wasn't a win — scourge and rebellion wore 'em too thin They needed to heal, Cult wasn't done. He thought to defeat it by leading the hunt And then he got bit, he thought that was it; with help from an elf got a grip on his shift The Cult broke in, forsaken invaded 'Cause the wall shattered the city was taken He was betrayed, his son was slain When he tried to reclaim it, Cult was erased Then the plague hit, they evacuated Solitude lead to Gilneas' end But now, that he's in the alliance again For honour and glory he'll get his revenge [Hook] [Hook]
