"From underneath the trees, we watch the sky
Confusing stars for satellites
I never dreamed that you'd be mine
But here we are, we're here tonight....."
Confusing stars for satellites

But here we are, we're here tonight....."
A white haired man leaned against a tree. He looked at the sky with his unseeing eyes. A purple dragon laid next to him, showing the man the night sky through his eyes.
'Remind me how we got here?' the dragon asked with a sigh.
The man shook his head and sighed as well.
".....Singing Amen, I, I'm alive
Singing Amen, I, I'm alive...."
Singing Amen, I, I'm alive...."
"We lived, Spyro. We lived." the man said, turning his sightless gaze to the dragon. "We aren't hiding. We are alive." He sighed again and sat down. "Now tell me this, Spyro, how are we living now without fear?" he asked.
"......If everyone cared and nobody cried
If everyone loved and nobody lied
If everyone shared and swallowed their pride
Then we'd see the day when nobody died
And I'm singing
Amen I, Amen I, I'm alive
Amen I, Amen I, Amen I, I'm alive..."
If everyone loved and nobody lied
If everyone shared and swallowed their pride
Then we'd see the day when nobody died
And I'm singing
Amen I, Amen I, I'm alive
Amen I, Amen I, Amen I, I'm alive..."
'We've seen the world, my friend. We've seen the day when no one died...' the dragon muttered softly as he rested his head. 'We know the secret to the physic magic.... We were alive at the crystals peak.... I mean you were...'
"....And in the air the fireflies
Our only light in paradise
We'll show the world they were wrong
And teach them all to sing along
Singing Amen, I, I'm alive
Singing Amen, I, I'm alive..."
Our only light in paradise
We'll show the world they were wrong
And teach them all to sing along
Singing Amen, I, I'm alive
Singing Amen, I, I'm alive..."
The man nodded and patted the dragon as fireflies started to fly around and come out from their hiding places. "Spyro, how can we change the world back to that day without you leaving me?" he asked. "Can we prove them wrong about this?"
Spyro sighed. 'Emory.... I wish there was another way to bring peace, but I can't think of one.... All we can do right now is live for the other generations to come.' he said, opening a wing for Emory to use as a blanket.
"....And as we lie beneath the stars
We realize how small we are
If they could love like you and me
Imagine what the world could be
If everyone cared and nobody cried
If everyone loved and nobody lied
If everyone shared and swallowed their pride
Then we'd see the day when nobody died
When nobody died....."
We realize how small we are

When nobody died....."
Emory laid against the dragon. "Spyro, we are so small, yet, how can we be so important?" he asked.
Spyro chuckled. 'Because you were chosen long ago to master the physic power, my friend. I was there....' he said, nuzzling Emory. 'Sleep, Eighth Guardian, sleep.'
".....We'd see the day, we'd see the day
When nobody died
We'd see the day, we'd see the day
When nobody died
We'd see the day when nobody died"
When nobody died
We'd see the day, we'd see the day
When nobody died
We'd see the day when nobody died"
