Next of Kin - Benjamin Anderson

[00:03.11]Our mother always used to sing our praises from the rooftops
[00:08.10]Although we caused her trouble you and I were thick as thieves
[00:13.00]You fought your demons and deserved to have succeeded further
[00:17.80]But you slipped and fell my little Kabaneri girl
[00:22.80]Your will was stronger than any of all my powers
[00:28.30]Your voice of reason, like a soothing stream beside my bed
[00:32.80]When I was terrified you’d talk to me for hours
[00:38.38]I wanna hear your voice now
[00:41.90]What would you say?
[00:43.20]Move on, ‘cause I’m gone
[00:45.80]Now you’re talking to a shadow
[00:48.20]Look there! People so scared
[00:50.60]Hit your mark with every last arrow
[00:53.30]Be here, ready your spear
[00:55.70]The path you’ve got to follow
[00:58.20]Is more deadly each year
[01:00.70]Their sins were paid in blood so go
[01:02.81]Woh oo oh oo oo oo oh
[01:05.60]The sins of all our fathers
[01:08.00]Woh oo oh oo oo oo oh
[01:10.70]We’ve paid enough in battle
[01:12.80]Woh oo oh oo oo oo oh
[01:15.70]This is your chance for freedom
[01:17.90]Lots of love your next to kin
[01:23.20]You always had my back when everything around turned scary
[01:28.10]Words never said to you ah damn my over bloated pride!
[01:33.15]You were the best of all the best that any world could show me
[01:37.90]Now we fight a war, forever you will be inside
[01:42.70]You showed me strength that I had never seen before
[01:48.20]It lit fire under me, I seek to quote the words you said
[01:52.70]When I was terrified you’d talk to me for hours
[01:58.15]I listen to your voice now
[02:01.80]What would you say?
[02:03.20]Move on, ‘cause I’m gone
[02:05.70]Now you’re talking to a shadow
[02:08.20]Look there! People so scared
[02:10.70]Hit your mark with every last arrow
[02:13.30]Be here, ready your spear
[02:15.70]The path you’ve got to follow
[02:18.20]Is more deadly each year
