The Tragedy of Widogast (Critical Role Fan Song)

Подробнее о видео

After my Yasha fan song got so much positive feedback, I was inspired to continue creating music for each member of the Mighty Nein. Caleb is my favorite character in the campaign, and Liam's exceptional acting skills only reinforce his tragic backstory and mental state. I hope this song does him justice.

Lyrics:

I've caught an addiction to the arson's lifestyle;
The same old flames brought my sanity tumbling down,
And I walk a fine line between heroism and hypocrisy
Yet all I know – I don't know my own self anymore.

Can I atone for my crime?
Is there a way to turn back time?
Cast off my sins, they're not mine;
There's no more Bren, just Widogast.

The past is behind me, but it's clinging to my back.
The song of belligerence is piercing my ears.
Please, someone save me from my own incompetence,
Else I will burn in the fires I commenced.

Can I atone for my crime?
Is there a way to turn back time?
Cast off my sins, they're not mine –
Will they ever not be mine?
What have I done? I'm to blame
For the curse upon my name.
But I can't let these people know the shame
Of Widogast.
