    LYRICS:
    Fires Fade Gavin Dunne 2016
    And in the paths of ash
    Another bond of burden seek
    See the pale moon paint the sky in frost
    And in the lives long past
    In the cinders of the weak
    Lie the failures of the lost
    Fires fade
    The dimming of the embers
    Wake from your sleep again
    Fires fade
    Wills of steel to temper
    Come reignite this hopeful flame
    Inward face the eyes
    Purge and purify
    Silver silk strings of hope
    Puppets pulled forward
    Should the fires fade
    Should the cinders dim
    Should the fires fade
    Silent sigh, final hymn
    And the world comes tumbling down
    Cold kings clutch crumbling crowns
    Fires fade
    The dimming of the embers
    Wake from your sleep again
    Fires fade
    Wills of steel to temper
    Come reignite this hopeful flame
    #DarkSouls

    After Gav said on the podcast that some people didn't like this song I tought he might have experimented with a few new things. Now after having listened to it I am somewhat confused, since this is not only really good but also without any unorthodox elements that could put people off.

      @@twinzzlers I don't remember what the missing comment said, but my theory as to its reception is that it has to do with Dark Souls lore, and how the song kind of implies that the First Flame should be allowed to die ("should the fires fade/should the cinders dim," which starts to sound more like a question over time).

    It just occurred to me, it must've been super awkward when the Abyss Watchers first woke up. "Huh, what's going on. Oh god damnit, who forgot to link the fire! Wait a minute, Steve, you've been tainted by the abyss! Sorry man, I have no choice but to kill you."
    "I've been tainted by the abyss? You've been tainted by the abyss! Prepare to die!"
    "Wha-holy crap you're right! I have been tainted by the Abyss! What do we do when this happens? I never read the abyss watcher manual. Do I kill myself? Or do I kill you first, then myself? What would Artorias do!"
    "Well he'd probably kill somebody like a badass in front of the player character and then get killed himself."
    "Oh right"

    Just so you know, you inspired a holy day in one of my Pathfinder campaigns.
    "And on the day of the winter solstice, all lamps and torches are to be extinguished at dawn, and all fires allowed to burn down to ash. Only the Eternal Flame in Her temples is permitted to remain burning, and only fires for cooking may be lit, and they are to remain small, and only sufficient to do their purpose. Fires in sick rooms are also allowed to remain burning - do not let Her glory be an excuse for the frail and unfortunate to perish.
    For an hour during the day, Her faithful are to kneel in the ashes of the fires in silence. They are to reflect on their own mortality, their weaknesses and their failures of the past year. If sorrow overtakes them, they are permitted, yeah, encouraged, to cry aloud. As the hour draws to a close, Her faithful are again encouraged to make vows before Imrash, addressing their faults, and to lay plans to make amends for any and all wrongs they have committed. In the final hour before sunset, all of her Faithful who are able in body are to go before the Eternal Flame. They are to wear no ornaments or finery, and no barrier shall separate lord from peasant, for in the Day of Ash, all are to be reminded of their frailty. The clergy and holy ones of Her temple will then lead the Her faithful in hymns of penance and rebirth. "Fires Fade" from the Hymnist Gavin is greatly recommended. Once the sun has disappeared below the horizon, Her faithful are again permitted to light lamp, torch, and hearth.
    For on this day, we recall the mystery of our Lady.
    Imrash burns. Imrash dims. Imrash will blaze forever more."
    -Prophet Lazereus, "Acts of Devotion to the Flame"

    Gav was discussing on his facebook how this song was received with certain disappointment from some of his audience. which is why I figured he did Forever Flame. But after seeing that post and returning here, i can't quite see why people could have been disappointed. Its an awesome addition to the Dark Souls oeuvre Gavin has got going, Almost like an epic climax to the two previous ones.
    Fuck I bought the damn thing as soon as I could, it felt like an homage and a final brick to both the Dark Souls songs and the Paleblood Moon song from Bloodeborne.

      ... But, hey, I'd be totally okay with Gavin doing a super-sexy future version of this like he did with "Take it Back" and "The New Black Gold".

    There's an interesting phenomenon that occurs with me and many of your songs: The first time I listen to a song, often times it's somewhat underwhelming. The first time I listened to, for example, Don't Say a Word, I just thought it was "pretty good." Then I listened to it again a few weeks later. Only then did it hit me that that's one of the greatest songs you've ever written. Maybe I just wasn't paying attention the first time...Road Rage, I Am the Night, Edge of the World...All of those songs impressed me way more after I came back to them much later.
    Now, Fires Fade. Judging from your reactions on Twitter, a lot of people didn't like this song, or at least don't think it's as good as your other stuff. At first, I didn't have much of an opinion on it. It definitely wasn't BAD (you haven't written a bad song since I started following you, in my opinion), it just didn't stand out to me much - much like the above songs the first time I heard them. Forever Flame, on the other hand, was really good from the first time I listened to it.
    Now, it's been a couple months since I first listened to Fires Fade. How do I feel about it now? Well...It's awesome! Sharm is incredibly talented - the "wavering" she can do with her voice is a treat for the ears, and of course your own voice makes it even better. The lyrics, the instrumentals, everything is great. I don't play Dark Souls, but even I can tell that you've put love and care into this song. It fits right in with your other Dark Souls songs, and is a worthy counterpart to Forever Flame in my eyes.
    So, basically, great job with this one. I imagine it's discouraging when people prefer your old songs to your new ones, but I think you're more talented than you've ever been. Level 1 and 2 still have some great songs, but they don't hold a candle to Level 6 or Metal Up. Level 7's shaping up to be of a similar quality. I can't wait to see what else the album brings.

    I really like how your Dark Souls songs capture all the good things about the series.
    "You Died" is a jolly melody about the masochistic nature of the games.
    "Fires Far" is more bleak, like the story.
    And "Fires Fade" is an awesome ballad about the aspect of hope, which is a huge part of the Dark Souls experience.

  • @voidwaiker5497

    I just realized,
    "Inward face the eyes, Purge and Purify"
    That's totally a Bloodborne reference, not just in the eyes on the inside thing but possibly unintentionally referencing a specific line,
    "Plant eyes on our brains so that we may be cured of our beastly idiocy"
    First bit is obvious but, purge and purify totally equals the stuff about being cured, you cure something to purify it.

I'm tempted to go back and check out older songs to see if I find something I previously missed. Rekindle my appreciation so to say. Anyway, great work as always, Gav.

    Between the uniqueness of 'Kana', how evocative and cathartic 'The Lucky Ones' is (I will admit to having a much-needed nice little cry at that one, despite having next to no interest in the IP) and now this, I think it's fair to say you've been having a hell of a month with your content!
