So, the original song that many heard during the beta days had the following lyrics:
I close my eyes, tell us why must we suffer
Release your hands for your will runs asunder
My legs long tired, tell us where must we wander
How can we carry on with redemptions beyond us

To all of my children in whom life flows abundant
To all of my children to whom death hath passed his judgment
The soul yearns for honor and the flesh the hereafter
Look to those who walked before to lead those who walk after

Shining is the land's light of justice
Ever flows the land's well of purpose
Walk free, walk free, walk free, believe,
The land's alive, so believe

Suffer [feel] (me) Lonely [face] (me) Weakness [teach] (me) Evil [Fear] (me)
although[feel] (me) one must [face] (me) stumble [teach] (me) listen [speak] (me)
(Although we) [speak] we (might) [tell] them (we must) [tell] them (land of) [hope] hope
(Mother) [hope] hope (father) [wish] wish (every) [wish] wish(has a) [roam] home
(we must go) [roam] go (listen) [roam] go (suffer) [roam] home (sanctum) [swim] leap ---unsure
(And as) [speak] we (wander) [sleep] sleep (answer) [sleep on] sleep on (on) --- unsure

Now open your eyes while our plight is repeated
Still deaf to our cries lost in hope we lie defeated
Our souls have been torn and our bodies forsaken
Bearing sins of the past for our future is taken

War, born of strife these trials dissuade us not
Words without sound these lies betray our thoughts
Mired by your plague of doubt, the land she thorns
Judgment binds all we hope to a memory of scorn
Tell us why, given life, we are meant to die? help us in our cry!

witness suffer grumble(grovel?) reason
follow struggle wander listen
whisper shoulder addle weather
answer answer answer together

My life is a riddle to bear rapture and sorrow
To listen to suffer to entrust unto tomorrow
In one fleeting moment from the land doth life flow
Yet in one fleeting moment for the new leaf doth grow
In the same fleeting moment thou must live, die and know
Doesn't it seem like the perfect story from game launch up until now? The whole RAPTURE thing really seems like this was almost predetermined or a backup plan with the whole Dalamund ordeal and the coming of the seventh umbral era. Anyone else pick up on this? I was just randomly listening to it tonight and it sort of "clicked."
