I’ve held on for as long as I can
For the ones that I had to defend
I’ve been strong every day of my life
If she wants, death could take me this time

This world is a wasteland where nothing can grow
I used to have strength but I ran out of hope
I know it’s my fault that I'm here all alone
This world is a wasteland
Please let me go, go, go, go, go, go, go

If I could just lay my head down and rest
If there was nothing to fight or protect
Maybe then I could finally be free
Maybe death is like falling asleep

This world is a wasteland where nothing can grow
I used to have strength but I ran out of hope
I know it’s my fault that I'm here all alone
This world is a wasteland

I’m not ready to face it
Don’t go saying goodbye
There’s a beauty in changes
And I wanna try

This world is a wasteland where nothing can grow
If it weren’t for you I’d be here all alone
I know in my heart this is where we belong
This world is a wasteland
Don’t let me go, go, go, go, go, go, go
Don't let me go

Goodbye, Arcane. You were the best series I’ve ever watched ❤️

[TheDarkArtist_]

Vi hugging Jinx as it goes ‘don’t let me go’ is CRIMINAL

[Belialv]

"No matter what happened in the past it's never too late to build something new, someone worth building for."

[T-Rockoe]

“Maybe death is like falling asleep” aight I’m gonna go cry

[mr.j_jester]

“Always a dance with you”
EP7 - A romantic dance
EP9 - A suicidal dance
My eyes start bawling 😢

[Joshua-ios]

The decision to start showing the scenes in reverse, timed with the (slightly) more hopeful last verse and starting with the actual bomb reverse scene - 👌

[chadhayag]

The way Jinx's heart shattering is foreshadowed at 0:15 💔

[RaffDGoat]

“One day, l’m gonna ride in one of those things.” 🕊️

[salti]

Royal & The Serpent's voice is just so perfect for the bittersweetness of Jinx and Vi's relationship

[dllm]

Before Ekko's Epic Saves: Please let me go.
After Ekko's Epic Saves: Don't let me go.

TimeBomb Forever.

[WaffleWindow]

Who ever chooses the clips for these music video's needs a raise

[ktka]

The way 2:03 using rewind to show what if Jinx change and Vi is hugging her when singing “don’t let me go” 2:25 are so powerful🥲

[vihakhanolkar]

Jinx, if you're alive, I hope that youre at peace the next time we see you.

Killing is a cycle, I hope you break it.

[huggys_poppa]

this show breaks my heart and joins it again at the same time . i love arcane

[iPhonedo]

Arcane not only gave me a wonderful story and a visual masterpiece that I can't get enough of, it also introduced me to endlessly talented musicians.

[daburyu]

"Sometimes, taking a leap forwards means leaving a few things behind" 😭

This is BY FAR the best song in Arcane imo, 11/10 scene, 11/10 song, just perfection ❤

[Osiris]

Netflix feels like a wasteland now that arcane is over
Thank you for creating something truly magical

[TheGeneralGrievous]

"Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happend." Arcane was amazing, I won't forget it. Thanks be to Riot, Fortiche & everyone who worked on it.

[kanadraws]

1:03 " if there was nothing to fight or protect" *proceeds to show isha*😭😭😭

[binkybeee]

1:13 "Maybe death is like falling asleep" What a criminal scene to put there 😭
