An innocent boy of only fourteen.
So many dreams of what could have been.
Nobody trusted him, he took the blame.
This left a mark on his family's name.

I saw him off to that Academy.
The horrors that happened, I could never see.
"Goodbye and good luck! We'll be waiting for you!"
Those words were all lies, but he had no clue.

A strange program took them that day.
Our mother and father, they were taken away.
I got out with only my life.
And now I am caught in everlasting strife.

I'm on my own now-- The boy must be dead.
The thought of it fills my heart with dread.
I should have felt the despair in that place.
And now never again will I see his face.

I will bring hope, like he meant to do.
A new future is just barely in view.
No unnecessary deaths, just love and joy.
Exactly what he wanted, that fourteen-year-old boy.

I'll let out a shout.
I'll take them all out.
The creatures who took him will be no more.
The thought of revenge makes my spirits soar.

Humans get in the way. I will bring them mercy.
A few strangers' losses are nothing to me.
Even a protagonist can sometimes be bad.
Corrupted by memories of what they once had.

There's a punishment for hope. It truly is a shame.
I'll do what he did-- I will take the blame.
So much has gone wrong and I don't know how.
The world's in my hands... I'll end it all now.
