Phantom Pains - Blue Edition (feat. Troy Baker & Laura Bailey)

from Stray Gods by Austin Wintory, Tripod & Montaigne

lyrics

Phantom pains
From a missing friend
Feeding thoughts
Thoughts that never end
What did I do?
What didn’t I do?

Here she is
Only in your head
Long gone fights
But they’re never dead
What did I do?
What didn’t I do?

What did you do?
What didn’t you do?

Cause and effect
The earth shook
And my instinct was: Protect
She said come
There’s waves to ride
And I stayed shut inside
And that’s where she and I would disconnect
Cause and effect

There’s just one thing
That I need to hear
Tell me now
So the air is clear
What did you do
To her?
Was it you?

You’re asking if I killed her?

Yes, I did
It’s fair to say
That my mistakes
Paved the way
For what then came
Yes, give me the blame

Cause and effect
Somebody finds you here
They might project
And think you—

Killed her?
No. No!

Then help me
And you’ll show
I never had a reason to suspect
Cause and effect

But I’ve tried

Never with me
We haven’t tried

Then, let’s see

So, did I give you pause?

I’ll come and join your cause
Perhaps there is some change
We can effect

That hidden voice
Will always play
On a loop
It will always say
What did I do?
What didn’t I do?

It’s a song
You can’t erase
But you can make
A tiny space
For what you will do
Something new
