Dev Blog: Life is but a Scream

by Xenor

Hello! This is Sicycre from the Community team.

Warriors of Light have been enjoying the easy-going island lifestyle with Island Sanctuary, but when it comes to getting their blood pumping, they venture into Abyssos and rock out to the amazing new music accompanying the fierce battles!

Today, we’re pleased to share the lyrics for Scream, which is featured in the Sixth and Seventh Circle of Pandæmonium: Abyssos.

This song made a brief debut in the Patch 6.2 trailer which left a lot of WoLs wanting more. I know it got me hyped; it’s so powerful!

The song was performed by AKINO, a Japanese singer some readers may be familiar with. We’ve even heard that she recently became a Warrior of Light!

Without further ado, let’s dive into the lyrics!

Scream

Foul child, bastard and beast
O lost lamb, first to the feast
Come claim if you’re able
A spot at this table

Mild and meek, down on your knees
For hide and seek. It’s time that we feed

Your heart is racing, blood is running cold
Your fractured will is whispering (fly away, fly away)
Far Away

Here be lions

Say goodnight
With each bite does your sanity die
Sucking the life out, letting the dark
Inside
Say a prayer as the light leaves your eyes
Or scream all you like, your gods can’t hear you

Scream
Now Scream
Scream
Pseudo suicide, don’t choke on your pride

Scream
Now scream
Now. Scream.
Yeah, I’m gonna watch you bleed

Flensed and flayed, how does it feel?
Your pound is paid, those scars will not heal, no

Lost in suffering, drowning in your tears
Won’t someone, somewhere tell me (where do I, where do I)
Go from here

Be the lion

Say goodnight
With each bite does your sanity die
Sucking the life out, letting the dark
Inside
Say a prayer as the light leaves your eyes
Or scream all you like, the gods can’t hear you

Dressed in rage
Inside my cage
My pandemonium
Still bound to the flame that I bear

Buried alive
In the coffin of who I used to be
I’ll scream all I like, ’cause we’re all mad here

(Slumbering, tumbling)
(Wandering, wondering)
(Suffering, hungering)
Forever falling into my mind
Deeper, deeper down ’til I

Say goodnight
To the shadow I left far behind
I’m just a stranger, we are all strange
Inside
You can run but there’s nowhere to hide
So scream all you like, no one can hear us

Follow me (Follow me)
Come follow me (Follow me)
To Pandemonium
Still bound to the flame that I bear (There’s)

No release (Rescue me)
From this empty, waking wonderland (Rescue me)
So scream if you like, ’cause we’re all mad here

Scream all you like, ’cause we’re all mad here

Do you think that they conjure up these amazing tracks down in Abyssos?

This song is included in our latest downloadable mini-album, FINAL FANTASY XIV: ENDWALKER – EP2, so be sure to check it out if you need to loop it over and over (and over)!

Until next time!
Sing all you like, ’cause this tune’s fire.
