Technomancer - Final Fantasy VIII - My Mind

Описание: He bears the name of the Lion, but for years, he lived like a lone wolf. Squall Leonhart built a fortress around his heart, convinced that relying on others only leads to pain.

This is my tribute to "My Mind" from Final Fantasy VIII. I interpreted this mysterious track as Squall's internal monologue—the confusion and fear of a man realizing that his defenses have been breached. It captures his obsession with Rinoa, the "Sorceress" who walked right past his walls and woke the sleeping lion inside. 🏰💭

This is a heavy, brooding love song about the moment the Lion realizes he doesn't want to be in the cage anymore.

🎤 LYRICS 🎤

I built the walls to keep them out To kill the whisper and the doubt I stand alone I stand apart To guard the fortress of my heart But like a sorceress you came And whispered my forgotten name

Why are you walking in my mind? What is it that you hope to find? Your voice is echoing in here It brings me hope it brings me fear I try to push the thought away But in my mind you always stay

The ballroom floor the stars above I don't believe in words like love But when I'm drifting in the deep I see you smiling in my sleep I am the lion in the cage You are the light upon the stage

Why are you walking in my mind? What is it that you hope to find? Your voice is echoing in here It brings me hope it brings me fear I try to push the thought away But in my mind you always stay

The lion sleeps no more. I'm awake. Because of you.
