Z.O.E. Zone of the Enders Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The birds in the bushes did whistle and sing
The lads and the lasses in couples were courtin'
Going back to the factory their work to begin
He spied one among them, she was fairer then many
Her cheeks like the red rose that blooms in the spring
Her hair like the lily that grows in Yon' valley
He sat soft beside her, more closely to view her
She says, "My young man, don't stare me so
I gold in my pocket and silver as well
No more will I answer that factory call"

Those PS2-era Hideo Kojima game soundtracks were fucking fire man.
@ChrrolloDI
Fr. Soundtracks like these easily outshone the competition by miles. Literal Nier Automata levels soundtracks and good gameplay? Such a shame the franchise had to end the way it did.
