=========
Woo! I actually finished an entry for a contest for once.

The initial idea behind the song comes from a sentiment I've seen from many players regarding the Lotus: even though she's guided us, she's also hid things from us. Potentially she's hiding other things from the Tenno, and no one really knows too much about her (it's only through circumstance that we come to find out snippets of her past).

This, however, evolved into a question regarding Tenno existence- maybe something answered within game, and maybe some lore slipped from my mind- but the question of the Tenno's past wound up becoming the focus of this song (haha focus, get it? ha wow). We know about some things, but not really how or why they were in the circumstances that caused them to become Tenno.

This song focuses on one potential Tenno (of which there could be many) post Second Dream quest, who is seeking the answers seemingly forgotten.
=========
(Tenno, focus. Find the power within yourself.)

I'm waking up
The chaos is reality
And sure enough
I'm unsure if I believe it

I have found
that since the silent second dream faded away
I can't make heads or tails of what you say

Can you see it?
In my eyes
All the sadness
That you despise

Does it break your heart to think I'm gonna cry?
Does it break your heart to think that I
regret to be alive?

This devotion's
the notion
that sets things in motion

For greatness
For power
For peace in the vast open space

But I feel out of place
Like time is out of phase
All because the void has taken my life away

Centuries ago
My past, can't let go
I have a need to know
So won't you tell me?

I'm waking up
and I just can't believe
everything till now
that used to define me

It's all gone
like history has been erased
Everything I'm fighting for
I'm finding in it's place

You're doing much for me
Giving me the chance to live
I know you don't need
for me to tell you all of this

But something's gone
Something's wrong
I'd give anything to return to then
to a time that's too long gone

This devotion's
the notion
that sets things in motion

For greatness
For power
For peace in the vast open space

But I feel out of place
Like time is out of phase
All because the void has taken my life away

Centuries ago
My past, can't let go
I have a need to know
So can't you tell me

anything?
Anything at all?
Anything I was
if you recall?
