"Collateral Damage" is the song I wrote for my animated Reed900 series based on the boys, along with another song based on someone else from said animated series, aka. the villain 👀
Back in the day, I wasn't sure whether I should continue or not, since people are so hateful towards anything AI-related. However, with everything that's happening around the world and me, I've reached a point in which I couldn't care less about what other people think anymore.
I just aim to entertain since I can't profit from the stuff I do anyway.
As I said last time, I truly do love Reed900 and DBH, and I'd like to contribute to the fandom in any way and for as long as I can.
So yeah, everything in this MV is AI, and while it's in no way perfect, I'm very proud of it. It took lots of time; writing the lyrics back then, thinking about the MV and what kind of scenes would fit the song, mastering prompting (spoiler alert: I still haven't 🤣), the editing… It's not just one click, and it's done. That's not how it works.
Just… open your mind and try to enjoy it ❤️
[Verse 1, Gavin]
I never asked for help I never asked for you
Pushing through the wreckage doing what I had to do
Blood on my hands scars on my skin
I wear this mess like it’s armor but I’m barely holding in
[Verse 1, Nines]
I see your fight I see your pain
You keep it locked inside like you’re standing in the rain
But I’m still here no matter what you do
You don’t have to break alone I’m still reaching out to you
[Chorus, Gavin & Nines]
Collateral damage, that’s all we are,
Fighting our demons, but never too far.
In the silence, in the dark,
We’re both broken, both leaving marks.
But you hold me up when I’m about to fall,
And I can’t admit that I need you at all.
Collateral damage, but you keep me alive,
Even if I never say it, you’re why I survive.
[Verse 2, Gavin]
I don’t trust easy, I’ve been burned before,
People leave, they always walk out the door.
But you’re still here, android or not,
Makes me wonder what the hell we’ve got.
[Verse 2, Nines]
I’ll wait as long as you need me to,
Even when you push, I’ll pull through.
You can hate me, doubt me, try to run,
But in the end, you’ll see… I won’t be gone.
[Chorus, Gavin & Nines]
Collateral damage, that’s all we are,
Fighting our demons, but never too far.
In the silence, in the dark,
We’re both broken, both leaving marks.
But you hold me up when I’m about to fall,
And I can’t admit that I need you at all.
Collateral damage, but you keep me alive,
Even if I never say it, you’re why I survive.
[Bridge, Gavin & Nines]
We’re twisted, we’re scarred,
Running on fumes, falling too hard.
But if I’m falling… if I’m crashing down,
I know you’ll catch me, keep me around.
[Final chorus, Gavin & Nines]
Collateral damage, that’s what we’ve become,
But together, we’re stronger… even if I feel numb.
In the silence, in the fight,
We’re both shadows in the night.
But you hold me up when I’m about to fall,
And I still can’t say that I need you at all.
Collateral damage, but you keep me alive,
And maybe, just maybe, you’re why I survive.
