I Need You (a BG3 Spawn Astarion Fanmade song) - by reyshaofficials

This is my first take on the song, but I plan to get a new microphone and re-record it in the future for better sound quality. I hope you enjoy this raw version and feel the depth of Astarion's story through it.
Let me know what you think in the comments!

Lyrics

I used to see the sun, feel it warm my skin
Now it burns, it burns me within
Oh, how I miss the light, the golden rays,
But here I stand, lost in endless days.
That bastard took my life, tore my soul apart
Left me with scars, etched deep in my heart
But you stay... every step, you stay.
Tell me why? Why don’t you turn away?

If you could see the marks upon my back,
Would you still love me, even knowing all that?
I cannot see what you see, my reflection’s gone,
But, darling, tell me, do I still belong? (×2)

I need you, my love, I cannot lose this,
We could try, if that’s what you wish
I’ve never felt this—so raw, so real
But your touch, your gaze... it's all I feel
What do you see in me, that I can't see?
Oh, my treasure, why do you still choose me?

Once, the chains were tight, the nights so long
I was just a puppet, a twisted song
But now, you're here, and I feel something new
Could it be... this longing, this love for you?
I wonder what you see when you look my way
Do you see the monster I’ve become today?
Or do you see the man that I’ve buried deep,
The one who dreams of you in every sleep?

If you knew the darkness inside my chest,
Would you still stay, and love me best?
I cannot bear the thought of you turning away,
But, darling, here you stay... why do you stay?

I need you, my love, I cannot lose this,
We could try, if that’s what you wish
I’ve never felt this, so raw, so real
But your touch, your gaze... it's all I feel
What do you see in me, that I can't see?
Oh, my treasure, why do you still choose me?

The sun, it used to shine so bright on me
Now it’s only pain, it's agony
But with you, I almost feel whole again,
Though I fear I’ll always be this broken man.

So tell me, my love, tell me why you stay,
When all I bring is the night, not the day
But here I am, yours to hold, yours to break,
For you are the one thing I’ll never forsake.
