Guild Wars 2

The beta of a song parody I was working on before I quit Guild Wars 2.

Original Song by Gotye.
Lyrics and (bad) vocals by me.

Based on the November 15th patch which ultimately made me leave GW2 before I could finish this song.

Lyrics

(The Mesmer is singing this part)

Now and then I think of when they were in power
Like when they could take on kitteny groups and not die
Told myself that they were right for me
I found great power in their company
But those were bugs and it’s an glitch I still remember

You can get addicted to a certain kind of exploit
Like unfair combat abilities
And system bugs
So then we found that we had been nerfed down
Had all our bugs burried into the ground
But I’ll admit that I was glad that they had been fixed

But you didn’t have to change our phants
Give them line of sight issues
And reduce them to nothing
I don’t even need their burst
But you treat them like an addon
And it feels so rough
No, you didn’t have to stoop so low
Have our core mechanics ruined
And nerfed our greatsword
I guess that I dont need that though
Now you’re just some Mesmer that I used to know
Now you’re just some Mesmer that I used to know
Now you’re just some Mesmer that I used to know

(This next part is sung by another class, planned to be a theif)

Now and then I think of all the times you screwed me over
You had me believing it was always something that I’d done
But it was a exploit way
And it was just a Bug you say
You said that I should let it go
But the culling made me die to some Mesmer that you used to know!

(Other Class singing ends here, goes back to Mesmer)

But you didn’t have to change our phants
Give them line of sight issues
And reduce them to nothing
I don’t even need their burst
But you treat them like an addon
And it feels so rough
No, you didn’t have to stoop so low
Have our core mechanics ruined
And nerfed our greatsword
I guess that I dont need that though
Now you’re just some Mesmer that I used to know
Some Mesmer!
Some Mesmer!
Now you’re just some Mesmer that I used to know
Some Mesmer!
I used to know.
Some Mesmer
Now you’re just some Mesmer that I used to know

I used to know
That I used to know

I used to know
That I used to know

Some Mesmer…

this is awful and amazing at the same time!

Everyone says that :P
Its usually “Your lyrics are awesome but your singing is awful” (if the comment isn’t a troll comment that is).

Something I forgot to mention, a beta recording is what I do to ensure the new lyrics fit into the song correctly. I don’t even try to sing properly, hence the terrible singing and timings that I got wrong.
I already got people trying to drag me back to GW2, if they succeed I may redo the song properly.

Come back! Also, most of the lyrics work; i like it. Try to rework “like unfair combat abilities”
