The Light We Carry – A Final Fantasy XIV Song

“The Light We Carry” – An Original Song Inspired by Final Fantasy XIV
They wanted adventure—
but became the hero the Star would need.

This song follows the journey of the Warrior of Light, from their first steps into a broken realm to the edge of the universe itself.
A tale of loss, resolve, sacrifice, and the quiet strength to carry on—
for those who have fallen, and those who can yet be saved.

Lyrics

Intro
Beneath broken stars, a whisper ignites
A silent vow in the still of night
Who dares to rise, though none recall—
A name unknown, yet heard by all

Verse I
I walked through flame, through broken stone,
A blade in hand, yet not my own
The cries of hearts long turned to dust
Led me to fight because I must

From Thanalan to Ishgard’s skies
With dragons’ tears and traitors’ lies
A spark endured where others fell
To hear, to feel, to think—and quell

Chorus I
We carry flame through endless night
Through storm and song, we hold the light
When hope was torn, we stood the same
Not crowned by fate, yet bore the flame

Verse II
I wore the mask, I bore the weight
Of kingdoms doomed by dreams and hate
The stars we lost, the lies we made—
All came to break, then rise, then fade

From crimson tide to city blind
In silence, truth was redefined
A world apart we could not flee—
For whom I fought… was always we

Verse III
I crossed the stars, a stolen sky,
Where light betrayed, and hope ran dry
In mirrored worlds, where time was torn,
I bore the dark, and was reborn

Through Tempest deep and memory’s shade,
The truths of old were unafraid
I saw the world as it had been—
And knew the end must not begin

Bridge
Oh stars that watched as worlds would burn,
Did you weep when none returned?
We sailed the void, we begged the sky—
“Why must we live, if all must die?”

Interlude
“Has your journey been good?”
“Has it been worthwhile?”

I closed my eyes—and saw their faces.
The fallen. The forgotten.
The ones who walked beside me.

I carry them still.
I carry them all.

For those I have lost…
And those I can yet save.

Verse IV
Upon return, the skies were red,
The Final Days had swiftly spread
Despair ran wild through land and flame—
Yet still I rose and spoke her name

I journeyed deep beyond the sea,
To meet the one who guided me
And when she fell, we knew the cost:
That hope remains though all seems lost

Thus did we march through stars grown cold,
Through void and dream, through tales untold
Each step we took, a soul laid bare—
Through sacrifice, through deep despair

Until at last, with breath held thin,
It was just me, and the end, again

Final Chorus
We carry flame, through end and start
With sorrow bound to beating heart
Where none could follow, still we came
Alone, unbroken, bearing flame

Outro
And should the stars forget our name,
Still shall we burn, still shall we flame…

And still—
More to see.
More to save.
Go forth.
