Song Lyrics in FFXIV: Compilation, Discussion, and Interpretation

[neila_nuruodo]

I have a few suggestions to add!


Riding home, riding home, finding hope, don't lose hope

And like a message in a bottle cast to sea

In the rain, to (love?) and don’t lose faith, oh

The hands of fate trained ahead
(Pointing to the edge)

To believe, we first must see the end, oh!

Recognition, tomorrow’s gone too soon (I also thought this was "come" for a while, but isolating the voice makes it clear that it is "gone")

For the blind lead like lambs to slaughter

Without our compass, wandering, lost in lies of fate

Come, shadow, come follow me


There are a few others I wonder about, but I have a higher degree of confidence in these. Hope this proves helpful!

[Marche100]

The hands of fate trained ahead
(Pointing to the edge)

I think this is correct! Listening to it again, it sounds right and makes sense in the context of the preceding line!

In a similar vein, I just had a flash of insight, and I'm almost 100% certain I have the other 'to the edge' line figured out.

Our tears are painted in red
(Bleeding to the edge...)

I think with that, those lines are pretty well settled.
