Diamonds Are Forever

So you came to me
You explained to me
And I understand
And if its my special talents you need
Then I will do all that I can

I'll fight your battles, stay on the attack
So I can get you to love me back
You are like a diamond to me
And diamonds are forever you see

I am your leg breaker, I am your toy
Here to do your work for you to enjoy
I'll stab my morals in the back for you
I will do anything you want me to

I fought my way here
Now the line is clear
Deciding is the hardest part
Should I finish what I came here to do?
Should I make a wish upon the heart?

Crushing them with my powerful hands
To help you accomplish all of your plans
Just to see you happy as can be
Even though the guilt lives with me

Because if a diamond is a star
Shining on us from afar
The our bond, to me, is the brightest star in the sky

I am your leg breaker, I am your toy
Here to do your work for you to enjoy
I'll stab my morals in the back for you
I will do anything you want me to
I'm the acrobat, performing the feats
You're in the audience in the good seats
That was all for you to see
I really hope you were watching me

So you came to me
You explained to me
I understand that its a fact
That once I do this, I can never take it back

I am your leg breaker, I am your toy
Here to do your work for you to enjoy
I'll stab my morals in the back for you
I will do anything you want me to
I'm the acrobat, performing the feats
You're in the audience in the good seats
That was all for you to see
I really hope you were watching me
Not all love goes unrequited, but that doesn't mean all love is requited either. In fact, sometimes, and more often than many people think, someone will fall in love with a second party who doesn't love them back. And in spite of that, this person will do anything for that person, because deep down, even if they know that it might never happen, they hope their efforts will earn the affections of their loved one.

This set of lyrics is inspired by the story of Cerebella, a character from the 2D indie fighting game, Skullgirls. It took two playthroughs of her story mode to make sure I didn't miss anything valuable when the idea to write this hit me, including having to fight against Bloody freaking Marie twice and dying twenty something times each to get to the end, but it was worth it. ... I think. Hope.

Lyrics are mine. Skullgirls, whose character Cerebella inspired these works, is developed and is owned by Lab Zero Games. Its a great game, and you should go check it out.
