    LYRICS:
    Amid these shades
    Forever drifting nowhere
    Ever kept confined
    Outside the gates
    A taste of freedom so rare
    Worlds I long to find
    I can hear the distant calls
    There is no easy way out of here
    There is no easy way, persevere
    There is so much more beyond these walls
    There is no easy way, out of here
    There is no easy way, persevere
    A friend afar
    A shared and fleeting moment
    Calling out in vain
    I see no stars
    Aligned they keep us frozen
    Fated to remain
    I can hear the distant calls
    There is no easy way out of here
    There is no easy way, persevere
    There is so much more beyond these walls
    There is no easy way, out of here
    There is no easy way, persevere
    Stone cracks
    Building the walls back
    Keep track
    Waiting for the day
    To stride
    Out of the inside
    Far far away
    I can hear the distant calls
    There is no easy way out of here
    There is no easy way, persevere
    There is so much more beyond these walls
    There is no easy way, out of here
    There is no easy way, persevere
    Far far away

    A lot of people wanted this one, so I'm glad the game was inspiring :) It was easy in 2020 to relate to the theme of being inside, wanting to experience life in the big wide open world...

      You ever considered doing a Transistor song? I personally preferred it to Bastion...
      Although Calamity is such a good song; one of the first times I heard it was on the Escapist's live Miracle Of Sound event... ahhh, those were the days... jumpin' around to the encore of Nord Mead.

      Heh, I was just going to ask if it was concerning that one could view a song about a man struggling to break free from the Underworld as a metaphor for our current reality.

      This one hit even closer to home for me than expected. Four years ago now, I was put on sick leave due to severe burnout, and I've been struggling with depression, anxiety, isolation and rehabilitation ever since.
      There certainly is no easy way out of here. But I have to perservere.
      For there is so much more beyond these walls.
      Thank you, Gavin. I need this reminder quite often, and this was a good one.

      @@dex1157 Gav references previous related music a LOT. Here are a couple examples of it that I can think off the top of my head:
      -All of his _Dark Souls_ songs use the same leitmotif at least once
      -All of his _Assassin's Creed_ songs use some form of the phrase "justice runs in crimson rivers"
      -His songs Beauty Bleak and Some Things Never Change for _Fallout 3_ and 4, respectively, use the line "Sterile soil will harden. Wasted world, my garden." They even use it with the same vocal melody.
      -His songs City of Night, City of Dreams, and Neon Red for _Cyberpunk 2077_ use the phrase "running out on the edge" repeatedly. City of Night and City of Dreams also use the line "ghost in the city of X," with X being night and dreams, respectively.

    A song for my favorite game, from one of my favorite artists - yes, please! I love the sound of that zither throughout the whole thing, it adds such a spice.

    Oh man. I thuroughly enjoyed Bastion and your song about it many years ago. I recently finished Hades and decided to see if you did a song on it and did not disappoint. When I heard those clever Bastion leitmotifs I felt tingles.

    This may just be the greatest song you’ve made yet, I just can’t stop listening to it. It just sounds so... I cant even begin describe how amazing it is. The lyrics, the instrumental, the video, it just creates the the kind of music that makes you feel like an immortal warrior, which perfectly fits the game. Sorry about the somewhat-long rant, I just didn’t expect the song to be so... empowering and inspirational. Either way, I hope you have a fantastic day because you’ve sure as hell made mine, pun fully intended this time.

    Honestly this song really speaks to me. I've always felt trapped at home, especially now, for many reasons. Beyond just covid. My family is religious, I'm not anymore. They mostly still think I'm straight and cis and am going to grow up and have a family. But in reality I'm a pansexual aromantic nonbinary trans girl who's only just now figuring herself out. I can hear the distant calls. But right now I can't be myself, drifting nowhere, kept confined. And until I'm out on my own and financially independent, I don't know how much I'll be able to be myself. I don't know if my parents would do anything, but I'm still scared. There is no easy way out of here, there is no easy way, persevere. There is so much more I can be but right now I feel trapped and not understood. There is so much more beyond these walls. Your music honestly makes me feel awesome, it's uplifting and energizing and motivating and reminds me to persevere and I am fabulous as hell and nobody, not even the forces of hell itself, can stop me. Thanks, Gavin. Keep rocking.
