READER:
So, after every page went black
The time came for me to bring him back
I wanted to write the hero of my youth
Bring back the light, the beauty, love, and truth
SS:
It's your fault
Right away I saw it
As Sonic Supersoul
The song was incomplete because
the past was still not whole
You modernize the character
The time and facts are changed
The history's rewritten
But the feelings still remain
Ghosts of emotions
Trapped in pain that cannot heal
From lives no longer real
Ghosts of emotions
Life felt like this before
But this is not that life any more
I know you meant well
Trying to set me free
From a complicated history, but
You did this to me
From a single page in issue 1
An incidental part
You invented a relationship and
Ana stole my heart
READER:
I thought it would be better
But now I understand
Why you felt more deeply
Than even I had planned
The stories were discarded
The memories were gone
But in your love and pain
Sarah lives on
SS:
So I return once again
To fix the beginning
To unfix the end
The ghosts must be freed at last
The present becomes dissonant
When cut off from the past
We already know resolution is the key
Accepting and embracing my entire reality
You don't have to save me from my own memory
The past and present give the song
Continuity
The timeline isn't perfect but
it will work out somehow
I'm breaking Logos open wide
it's all coming back now
