I used to rule the world,
Seas would rise when I gave the word.
Now in the morning I sleep alone,
Sweep the streets I used to own...

Now I have to:

Its basically Elhokar/Szeth/Jasnah/Alethi soldiers and Szeth and maybe Taravangian at the end.

 

 

 

 

I used to rule the world

Seas would rise when I gave the word

Now in the morning I sleep alone

Sweep the streets I used to own

 

I used to roll the dice

Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes

Listened as the crowd would sing

Now the old king is dead long live the king

One minute I held the key

Next the walls were closed on me

And I discovered that my castles stand

Upon spheres of salt and spheres of sand

 

I hear Kharbranth bells a-ringing

Parshendi cavalry choirs are singing

Be my Shards, my sword and shield

Devotaries in a foreign field

For some reason I can't explain

Once you'd gone there was never

Never an honest word

And that was when I ruled the world

 

It was a wicked and wild wind

Blew down the doors to let me in

Shattered windows and the sound of drums

People couldn't believe what I'd become

Altho kingdoms wait

For my head on a silver plate

Just a puppet on a lonely string

Oh who would ever want to be king?

 

 

 

 

wicked wild wind that shattered windows? Its perfect!

Ooh, that is perfect.  

...I feel like someone needs to record this now.  

[Darkness Ascendant he/him]

I know the Stormfather will call my name.

Now it's a bit of Kaladin as well

So, I'm a Shade now. I never noticed myself withering

[marsoupial they/them]

I SEE.

[Yata he/him]

ok yesterday I was a Truthless, now a Sentient awakened Object....Am i the only one to see the Connection ? 

[marsoupial they/them]

Now I'm wearing a suit/wielding a blade

made of dead spren. 

Lovely.

 

Will someone please let me know when I'm about to reach "So 1337 Hoid Can't Compete" so I can screenshot it?

 

Also, @Ookla the Fantastical I would totally record that, with @Ookla the Chibi's permission.

Vanisher. That explains why I haven't been posting much.

@Ookla the Chibi is it cool if I tweak the lyrics a tad?

I used to rule the world

Bridges rose when I gave the word

Now in the morning I sleep alone

Sweep the streets I used to own

 

I used to roll the dice

Feel the Thrill in my enemy's eyes

Listened as the crowd would sing

Now the old king is dead long live the king

One minute I held the key

Next the guards were attacking me

And I discovered that my warcamps stand

Upon spheres of salt and spheres of sand

 

I hear those Kharbranth bells a-ringing

Parshendi cavalry choirs are singing

Be my kindgom, my sword and shield

Devotaries in a foreign field

For some reason I can't explain

Once you've gone there was never (2nd time: I know the Heralds will call my name)

Never an honest word

And that was when I ruled the world

 

It was a wicked and wild wind

Blew down the doors to let me in

Shattered windows and the sound of drums

People couldn't believe what I'd become

Although the Vorin Kingdoms wait

For my head on a silver plate

I'm just a puppet on a lonely string

Oh who would ever want to be king?

With castles standing on spheres of salt and sand, i was specifically thinking of Jasnahs prologue. Do what you like with that. 

Other than that yay! I actually thought it needed more adjusting.

-you don't need my permission. I It's a public forum and the source material isn't mine anyway so don't feel like you need to ask.  

Now to sandersonise Hamilton.....I'm thinking WOR Kal and Dalinar for Right Hand Man....or maybe Jasnah and Shallan

When you write it, let me know. I may or may not be able to play most songs from Hamilton.

Do you want the Stormlight Coldplay thing (stormplay? coldlight?) to be guitar or piano?

Loving Viva la Stormlight, but my English nerd got tweaked by a few of the phrases - gotta maintain rhythm in lyrical poetry! 

Incorrigably update version under spoilers.

Also a few Rosharin updates for consistency  

[marsoupial they/them]

I tweaked a few lyrics, and recorded it on guitar, and now am doing piano version. Will post when done and satisfied.

EDIT: So, neither is that great. My vocals are eh, I messed up on a few chords in the guitar version, and the piano one is pretty bad (both instrumentals and lyrics, and I was already frustrated because my cat kept making background noise), but here:
