SMALL TWO OF PIECES ~Broken Shards~

__NOTOC__
SMALL TWO OF PIECES ~Broken Shards~ (called Small Two of Pieces -Screeching Shards- on the Revival disc, sometimes unofficially referred to as Small Two Of Pieces ~Restored Pieces~) is Disc 1, Track 19 on the Xenogears Original Soundtrack and track 45 on the Xenogears Original Soundtrack Revival Disc -the first and the last-. It was also included as track 12 on the album Colours of Light (a compilation of Mitsuda's vocal works).
Faraway Promise (and, by extension, A Distant Promise - Piano Version -, Wind from the Valley - A Distant Promise, and A Distant Promise (Music Box Version)) are versions of this track, with Faraway Promise being played on a music box.
This track is the ending theme of Xenogears, playing at the end of the final cutscene as well as in the staff credits. The song is also the audio to a music video stored in the Japanese version of Xenogears' second disc; however, this file cannot ordinarily be accessed without extraction tools or similar methods.
==Lyrics==
Run through the cold of night as passion burns in your heart
Ready to fight, a knife held close by your side
Like a proud wolf alone in the dark with eyes that watch the world
And my name like a shadow on the face of the moon
Broken mirror
A million shades of light
The old echo fades away
But just you and I
Can find the answer and then
We can run to the end of the world
We can run to the end of the world
Cold fire clenched to my heart in the blue of night
Torn by this pain, I paint your name in sound
And the girl of the dawn with eyes of blue and angel wings
The songs of the season are her only crown
Broken mirror
A million shades of light
The old echo fades away
But just you and I
Can find the answer and then
We can run to the end of the world
We can run to the end of the world
We met in the mist of morning
And parted deep in the night
Broken sword and shield and tears that never fall
But run through the heart
Washed away by the darkest water
The world is peaceful and still
Broken mirror
A million shades of light
The old echo fades away
But just you and I
Can find the answer and then
We can run to the end of the world
We can run to the end of the world
Run to the end of the world
