"I remember how small Earth looked from the window
I remember how I was supposed to remember wewe were a foe


...But do wewe remember how sad wewe looked?
Did wewe know all the courage it took?
Courage for me, to walk up and beg,
Beg until my eyes were puffy and red
So I didn't have to die for your selfish dread?
So I could wed before wewe made all our graves' beds?

...I couldn't perceive,
Why wewe spoke so softly to me,
wewe didn't threaten me with "beware"
wewe were just too full of despair...
To...even care...
So wewe stood there,
Listening to my commentary
While I was wailing like a Banshee for wewe to believe
That humans don't deserve to die,
wewe need to give everyone a chance to fulfill what they have inside -
A purpose
But good God, your calmness made me nervous
I was scared,
And time was zaidi than scarce
But then wewe made me a promise...

Till this day, I don't even know what I did,
I don't even get how I opened up your can's lid

But till this day, do wewe remember it?
How wewe whispered it?
How wewe stayed true to it?
How wewe so well emphasized it?

wewe glanced at me for a second, no zaidi than two,
And said, "I have to fulfill my promise to Maria, and you..."
I still don't know what promise it was,
I still don't know why wewe saved us,
But I knew "I" had just saved the world!
kwa changing your motives in a moment's whorl!
I did something important for once,
I saved everyone in the audience!

wewe fought with all your might
...And gave us your life
And I-I...
I was happy to have brought out your inner light,
But I didn't want for wewe to die
I couldn't help but feel bad,
I couldn't help but feel sad,
Because I was the cause of all that
I'm the one who convinced wewe into basic suicide
While Sonie could've defeated that ugly monster just fine
I'm the one who put your life in jeopardy
So now all your memories are empty
...With no trace of little ol' Amy

...Then Rouge found you,
And now it's wewe she's into,
Whether wewe don't notice au don't care, I don't know
Because your feelings are never shown
wewe haven't changed much
You're still Shadow down to the clutch
And wewe don't look like you're into relationships and such
Even if she desires your touch
I smile at it - because I want wewe happy,
Whether wewe don't notice au don't care,
I kind of want to see wewe without your glare

And yet, I can't help but remember - that I was first.

She saw wewe die,
...But I'm the only one who saw wewe cry
She may be there for wewe to rely...
...But I changed the future in your eyes,

It took wewe months to trust her,
It took wewe a long time to say it was your friendship she deserved
But wewe trusted me first
And acknowledged me in sekunde unrehearsed

wewe may share with her your interactivity,
But wewe shared with me your sensitivity
...Because you've only been weak,
...Around little ol' me

She may have let wewe stay at her place when wewe were hurt,
But I was first
She may have promised wewe her worth,
But wewe promised me the Earth
Because I was first

You're the only one who's been respectfully nice to me,
Who's still nice to me,
Especially when wewe helped find Cream
Even while it didn't benefit wewe au anything

...You're nicer than Sonie,
Nicer than...you probably should be

...Because I was first.

And I don't know why that makes me happy,
But it makes me grin,
Because maybe one day, I'll get to be important again."
