Faye's Song
Written and Arranged by Karliene Reynolds
Composition by Bear McCreary - God of War Soundtrack

-- | LYRICS |--

You are tired
And your memories are sore
You've closed your heart
And he feels alone

Carry my ashes
To the peak of this land
And a son will find a Father
A God becomes a man

Your journey seems swift
But the road is unclear
There's dangers untold
But if you keep him near

You'll carry my ashes
To the peak of this land
And a son will find a Father
A God becomes a man

You fear for his fate
And the darkness within
But the monster you were
Now only fights for him

Carry my ashes
To the peak of this land
Where a son will love a Father
A God becomes a man

[Lukyblueberry]

2:24 "But the monster you were, Now only fights for him." greatest line in the entire song.

[cookiesnugglez]

That "a god becomes a man" part sent shivers down my spine

[JustSomebody]

I NEED to know the story of the woman that could love The Ghost of Sparta.

[davidbranson]

Peter Hollens, Malukah, Miracleofsound, Karliene: the best singer of Youtube. I really respect them.

[LightningElixir]

The game is so emotional, and the story is so sad and beautiful at the same time, who could aspect that a ruthless killer that was working for an evil god will turn into a caring father who lost his wife. This song very beautifully explains that what Kratos has to do for his son to love him, Faye was a fierce warrior and a good woman who was wise and cared about her son and husband.

[flamesdout]

My favorite part is “you fear for his fate, and the darkness within. But the monster you were, now only fights for him.” It just sounds so foreboding like Kratos knows that Atreus will one day fall to his own nature and there is nothing, despite everything Kratos has done, that can save Atreus from one day becoming the God of Mischief and Chaos

[StarKiddo]

Faye bridged Kratos and Atreus so much by her own death and helped the Ghost of Sparta confront his bloody dark past to change into something better. This is epically beautiful.

[Falibron]

This game is truly a masterpiece. The story, the character development, the music... and you fitted the lyrics to tell the story beautifully.

Gonna' have to replay the game, now.

[Cozonac]

First bloodborne, then the witcher and now god of war. She has a good taste.

[battlecross]

Ironic the women in Kratos life; Athena, the Oracle of Athens, the end it was his wife Laufey who was the wisest of them all knowing what would happen in the end from the Jortnar's fate to the unleashing of Ragnarok.

[phelopatirabdel-malak]

Really wish we can see Faye and and Kratos when they first met.

[senpaiistired]

As someone who has played god of war remastered 10 times.... this songs explains the whole storyline of the game. And her voice gives me the chills. Beautiful.

[thatdevil]

God damn, i got chills. This is how an angel sounds. Love it.

[NemesisSP]

It's cool how this song depicts the future for Kratos and his son

[CountryboyAR]

"To grieve deeply is to have loved fully. Open your heart. To the world as you have opened it to me, and you will find every reason to keep living in it." ~ Faye

[mihacimpric]

I want a crossover between Karliene, Miracle of Sound, Aviators and Sharm. Like so they can see.

[conniewinchester]

As soon as you started singing I had goosebumps. Amazing!!!

[MoonlightGuided]

I saw this appear in my notifications and my intrest was piqued, I certainly wasn't expecting a God Of War song. It really is quite a beautiful song, stellar work as always.

[WhiteWerewolfo]

I didn't know this song had a translation, epic job!

[johnpeyton]

“No. We will be the Gods we choose to be. Not those before. Who I was is not who you will be. We must be better.”
