Heartache / Asgore

Fight or run away; safer if you stay

I’m protecting you; I promise it’s true

I won’t let you leave; they’re all filled with greed

All they really need is your soul

Fight or run away; safer if you stay

I’m protecting you; I promise it’s true

I won’t let you leave; they’re all filled with greed

I know what’s best for you, my child

I can’t look, I must avert my gaze

Fight or run away; safer if you stay

I’m protecting you; I promise it’s true

I won’t let you leave; they’re all filled with greed

I’m trapped in my protective haze

I can’t let you go; no one has to know

It is never clear; why you are left here

I can’t bring myself to hurt you

Innocent and merciful young child

I can’t see how or why it was that you were exiled

Every time you look into my eyes

For your troubles I apologize

All they really need’s your soul

I know what is best for you

I did not expect; you to leave me yet

I thought you might stay; for another day

My eyes start to glaze; every time we lock gazes

I know that it’s wrong; but follow along

It may be selfish; but it’s for the best

Tears forming quickly; I can’t let another one die

Bandage on your face; a stick in your hand

That look of confusion in your eyes

What are you trying to prove this way?

My eyes start to glaze; every time we lock gazes

Determination; it rests in your heart

Know it’s waiting to tear me apart

But it seems you continue sparing me

I can’t handle another death

I accept your merciful regards

Though I don’t deserve such niceties coming from you

I’m sorry for putting you through this

I hope you’ll survive on your own

Hug you goodbye and let you go

Once again

Human stands

Across from

My torn heart

It won’t take

Very long

Despite your mercy

I know you’re very strong

I must fight

For my peoples’ hope

I must strive

To claim the last soul

You seem set

On speaking with me

But I stay silent

Human, please

Please fight back

I don’t want to win

No mercy

Not even in the end

Swing your knife

I’m sorry for this

I won’t let you miss

Human please

I can’t

Take this anymore; conscience is too sore

Stop trying to speak; you’re making me weak

Weapon of your choice; just don’t use your voice

There’s no way to push mercy

I have to do this; I just have one wish

Please just take my soul; I am much too old

Monsters in despair; it can’t be repaired

There’s no way to push mercy

Repeating those words: I don’t want to hurt

I know it’s the case; though we must erase

It’s the only way; there’s nothing to say

There’s no way to push mercy

You are the last soul; you are the last hope

You are the last step; you are the last jump

The final human; fighting to the end

There’s no way to push mercy

What is in that pie? Memories and lies

I still miss her smile; won’t you stay awhile?

That’s impossible; I’m responsible

There’s no way to push mercy

I can’t let you win; your life has to end

Wish it wasn’t true; it’s all up to you

Finish me off first; though I am unversed

I’m sorry that it’s hurting

Look at my eyes; you know it’s not alright

I feel so torn

For my people

I stand tall

And put on a brave face

But inside

I don’t want to erase

A child

So merciful a child

Going through the same grey motions

Over and over again

Does it really matter even

Though I have been condemned?

Trying my resolve, I falter

My intentions were clear

Finally you start to strike me

And tears begin to appear

There will be no talking from this point on

You’ve done everything in your power to act

And I cannot take this battle’s stress anymore

It seems that we are close

This is the end

There is nothing left for you to do here

So take my soul now and cross the barrier

I am so glad that you succeeded in the end

I try to force a smile

The ending of this trial

It seems this was worthwhile

They can’t up stand your guile

The seconds are crawling

My weapon is falling

Goodbye
