[Verse 1: Eret]
Am G
Ever since I was a kid
Em Dm
I wanted to reach the stars
Am G
I was born to sit on a throne
Em Dm
Not collect battle scars
Am G
Your loyalty is cute
Em Dm
But it's what makes you weak
Am G
Friendship means nothing
Em Dm
'Cause it's power that I seek
[Chorus: Eret]
Am Em
It was never meant to be
Gm Dm
Now I'm king of the SMP
Am Em
This was my destiny
G Dm
So it was never meant to be
[Verse 2: Wilbur]
Am G
L'Manburg once was beautiful
Em Dm
And good and pure
Am G
But now that it's perverted
Em Dm
I have nothing to live for
Am G
My nation no longer exists
Em Dm
This imitation must burn
Am G
Maybe when their world turns to ash
Em Dm
They'll all finally learn
[Chorus: Wilbur]
Am Em
It was never mеant to be
G Dm
My great unfinished symphony
Am Em
My country will diе with me
G Dm
'Cause it was never meant to be
[Verse 3: Niki]
Am G
Wil tried to set us free
Em Dm
But these men won't let go
Am G
Even if we rebuild
Em Dm
This will never again be our home
Am G
There's nothing left
Em Dm
But a ghost
Am G
The last piece destroyed
Em Dm
By the girl who loved it most
[Chorus: Niki]
Am Em
It was never meant to be
G Dm
That's why I burned down that damned tree
Am Em
Nothing left but a memory
G Dm
For it was never meant to be
