Crimson lights the sky, the bird still asleep Like a dream it shines, from heaven’s safe keep Childrens songs we sung, as soft as the breeze Endless fields, our home, I long for those days I call out these prayers to the sky, heavy with thought, see your face I carry these memories inside, thoughts of a soul colored by love See me grow wings and fly high, passions will die down below I burn in a basin of fire, watchers look on as they dance in their merciless sky Watching me, watching you Silent black, the dawn, and time tell its tale Darkened blood, it flows, the forest receives Look within the dark as deep as you dare There inside you find destruction you seek I call out these prayers to the sky, heavy with thought, see your face I carry these memories inside, thoughts of a soul colored by love See me grow wings and fly high, passions will die down below I burn in a basin of fire, watchers look on as they dance in their merciless sky Watching me, watching you
I usually hum this song to myself or to anyone who needs some sort of consolation especially to my loved ones. They always ask what’s the name of the song or what is it about but I just keep quiet every time because I don’t want them to find out the origins and how ominous it is. But this version works is my favorite compared to the first Drakengard. Drakengard 2 feels close to me as I got into it first before Drakengard 1, and I felt somewhat thankful that it’s not as grim as the first one….safe to say I get dragged on until Nier Automata ha!
Let's think about it for a moment. The true strength of the gods lies in the scheming. If not, Mikhail and Zero would have ended them millenia ago. Perhaps even Brother One. If I must truly suffer this game, then I choose to believe ending B is the canon one. It's the one that makes the most sense, given Manah knows the burden Nowe would receive if he received the New Breed gift. Do not forget she's still traumatized by the Watchers and their chosen one thing.
Besides, the boss battle against Manah is far more heartbreaking and emotional for me and it feels like the true culmination of everything the characters through out the game have been telling you about love, sacrifice and power.
@@novustalks7525 if you mean the second game isn't part of the saga's story, I completely agree. If you're talking about ending B alone, then I have to disagree.
Я почав грати в Дракенґард, щоб дізнатися більше про серію ігор Нієр, але цяДракенґард так сильно затягнув мене сюжетом, що Я, мабуть, можу назвати цю серію справді на рівні тієї самої Нієр. Я ще не грав у третю частину Дракенґард, але, думаю, це буде круто, враховуючи те, що люди, загалом, кажуть про третю частину.
@@AofCastle its not about furiae lol its drakenguard in a single song. This version it a tamer version due to its moment that its used which is when nowe is forced to fight and kill legna, his father. His father who raised him, watched him grow, played with him. taught him all he knows is now telling the man once a boy he MUST kill him, or he will destroy all that nowe loves. All of this, nowe wishes he could return too, but cannot. The song itself represents the tragedy that is drakenguards core
@@rindao9928 I meant the original one, Drakengard 1's version. You're right that I shouldn't say that THIS version is Furiae's theme. But even then, Furiae is so important to the story that the song can represent both Furiae and the whole game
It released like this in Japan, I don't think they change songs for regions. Furiae is also like nonexistent in this game besides one dialogue that doesn't even mention her by name. You might be thinking of the version from DOD1?
The lyrics in Growing Wings carry the same meaning as in the original Japanese version, 尽きる. They're both about Furiae losing the will to live, from her perspective. The English lyrics are more circumspect about Furiae's love for Caim and the suicidal implications. For example, the lyrics "See me grow wings and fly high, passions will die down below" correspond to a line I'd roughly translate as "I grow wings and flee from love". Personally, I think Growing Wings works better as the main theme of Drakengard 1, since the obliqueness makes it seem less about just Furiae. I think calling it a "censored version" isn't giving it enough credit.
