Weight in Gold (Vox Machina Fan Song)

Been a hot minute, but I’ve been working behind the scenes on a big upcoming D&D adjacent (but non-CR) project that’ll be debuting soon, so keep an eye out! Also, I apologize but I could not sing that last line without breaking, sibling stuff gets me. Art by Jessica Nguyen () Spotify Pre-Save: Lyrics: When I die, gild my bones Wrap me in a silken shroud Bury me with all the gold in the treasuries of men Do you recall the way they’d sneer? The way they’d mock our better blood? Brother I can still remember all the words our father said and didn’t say If I were worth my weight in gold Perhaps someone would see me If I lived in a castle Would the world then care to meet me? Fill my coffers high with lies And let a girl pretend That she’s more than her elegance belies Wealth of riches, wealth of name I have it all, and yet I’m still the same But wealth of family, wealth of lover, wealth of brother keeps me warm Queen of Ravens lays me down Her mask as fragile as my own Open eyed, I see my brother who has never left my side A sacrifice I would give up all my gold for one more day to tease you I would burn my castle down for one more chance to see you Fill my heart as you once did when it was us against the world
