Not sure who sings this, but someone does! This is someone escaping the Skyfalls incident, but making it back to Orlan in time to see it ransacked. Perhaps this is Sharpie or Legoboy. Maybe Nuncius. (It can't be Thingguy, beacuse... REASONS.) I dunno. I didn't have access to the wiki when I did this. In one night. For kicks and giggles. Billy Joel's rythmes are some of my favorites, but I like to mess with his often secular lyrics.  >:)  Bwahahaha.
I've seen the lights turn on in Orlan,
I saw the crow of State laid low.
And life went on beyond the palisaides,Â
they all got TV sets,
Stopped caring long ago.
They held a party out in Orlan, to strike the KOTOS a final blow.
They turned their power on, And drove us underground, But we went right on with the show!
I've seen the lights turn on in Orlan. I saw the pillagied farmland at my feet. Y'know I almost didn't notice it; It was a warzone all the way up the street.
They burned the Library up in the Scholar's Walk. Like in that Ancient Elven War. The flames were everywhere, but no one really cared; They'll just remain illiterate forevermore!
I've seen the lights turn on in Orlan. I watched the mighty Gates and Walls fall. There were Guards at the Palace Gate, They surrundered right on sight; They never fought at all!
From there, thedude soughbt to conquer the North-folk. Now that he'd gotten a Cool New Base for Free. He gobbled up Britay, And blew Aquilia away! And terrorized Empires across the sandy desert Sea!
You know I saw those lights turn on in Orlan... But that was so many years ago... Before we all lived like fugitives. Before thedude took all of Morcia...! There are not many who remember... They say a handful still survive.... To tell the world about... The way the KOTOS held out... and keep the memory alive...
