gOd this song is SO Sylvanas and Lyndra'thel coded
Tell me once again
I could have been anyone, anyone else
Before you made the choice for me
My feet knew the path
We walked in the dark, in the dark
I never gave a single thought to where it might lead
Like? Sylvanas making her into her perfect champion after death, and Lyndra'thel just letting her, blindly loving and trusting her.
All those empty rooms
We could have been anywhere, anywhere else
Instead I made a bed with apathy
My heart knew the weight
Ten years worth of dust and neglect
We made our peace with weariness and let it be
And after Cata rolls around, and Sylv starts raising Forsaken with the Valkyr and she starts acting like Arthas Lyndra'thel breaks on the inside. Later, she tells Sylvanas, that she should have shot her dead the second that she first reminded her of that monster. And she meant it, but until the end of BFA she knew it wasn't right in her heart, but “instead I made a bed with apathy.”
The moon will sing a song for me
I loved you like the sun
Bore the shadows that you made
With no light of my own
I shine only with the light you gave me
I shine only with the light you gave me
Sylvanas to Lyndra'thel always—even in life—seemed like the sun, bright, warm, and always out of reach.
I want to feel the fire that you kept from me
This whole line is them, but especially this one. After Sylvanas leaves, Lyndra'thel hates her, she hates Sylvanas for everything she had done—to both her and the world— and she hates herself for letting Sylvanas become like this. And now that Sylvanas is gone she wants to feel—to exist with building herself around someone elses needs
