Oh, and I know that it won't always be easy But I'll never know if I don't take this one chance...

LYRICS:
Should I have taken the trail setting away from all I have known, Would I have ever discovered the bloodshed and terror that they have sown? Children and mothers that cower in their final hour without a home Laughing away at the horror, the echoes of fear where gnolls now roam
Beware, beware the Eye and the Claw! The Eye and the Claw of the Evil One 'Ware, 'ware the blackening maw of Levith arisen blocks out the sun!
Tales told of battles of old, lightning and thunder and darker names Once more do we still the coals led by the light of Kahl's own flame. Dark beasts await in the night, snuffing the light of the good and tame Lock your shutters tonight, lest under the moon you hear its name!
Beware, beware the Eye and the Claw! The Eye and the Claw of the Evil One 'Ware, 'ware the blackening maw of Levith arisen blocks out the sun!
Dead men will tell the tale of travelers who came by celestial light Creatures, both friend and afeared, nary had witnessed a stranger sight As they set on their journey, the beasts of the wild would plague their way Cast beneath the Eye and the Claw, the warning of Balxiros do I say!
Beware, beware the Eye and the Claw! The Eye and the Claw of the Evil One 'Ware, 'ware the blackening maw of Levith arisen blocks out the sun!
Beware, beware the Eye and the Claw! The Eye and the Claw of the Evil One 'Ware, 'ware the blackening maw of Levith arisen blocks out the sun!FALLEN CHILD: An UNDERTALE 5th Anniversary A Cappella Medley [feat. @Genuine]Hailey Lain2020-09-16 | Happy anniversary, Undertale, and thanks for everything. Hard to believe it's already been 5 years.
(Also, holy mackerel - thank YOU guys for 200k!!)
BIG thanks to Genuine for all his hard work getting this mixed and mastered, and for his lovely vocals and beatboxing... and for playing Asgore in the video! It's always a pleasure and an honor working with you, dude.
ALSO big thanks to my buds for helping out on this one: Jessica Kalei Sheffield and Monpian for helping out with the lyrics, and Victor McKnight for helping with the heart particle effects in the video!
✪ LYRICS: Listen, child, long ago man and monster waged their souls Ye who falls Underground shall choose how this tale's unwound
O, the angel fallen so low upon a bed made of gold a heart of red as sole guide With thine soul, shed thy light and let the Underground bend under your will Will you mend the wrongs of ages old? Or shall you take our souls?
Life and LOVE born anew We place our dreams in you Gilded stars pave thy trail So begins this Undertale...
Broken in the wake of fantasy Shattered once again under cruelty Chained to fate, recurring nightmares Still: a glimmer of how it could be Sacrifice thy want of tyranny! Give it all for those who believe thee! Lo, the savior from humanity, shower those you face with thy mercy!
Behold! The angel fell from the heavens So shall the ground run empty Behold a stranger, O, ye who beckons to all the souls who met thee Come here to save the lost and the weary Come to forgive the guilty Behold a friend to those who would name thee Behold the one to SAVE me!
Hark ye, monsters and humanity standing here where many have fallen So the wheel has spun our destiny Answer now the one who is calling! Stand and face thy fear of tyranny! Call forth all the courage within thee! Lo, the savior from humanity, shower those you face with thy mercy!
For all of time, we will keep our HOPES AND DREAMS For all of time, even when the light is unseen
Under the stars, we will find our HOPES AND DREAMS As one in heart, with this light our voices will ring
And all the heavens will hear our HOPES AND DREAMS And shall the mountain and sea sing in harmony
Let our souls beating as one be the answer to all the suffering in the end In the end...
Listen, child, long ago man and monster waged their souls Ye who falls Underground shall choose how this tale's unwound

HUUUUUUGE supermassive thanks to my buddies for helping out on this one:
Monpian, who kickstarted this entire thing by telling my baffled butt that Sonic was an alien, and proceeding to explain all the lore behind it. I spoke with her about the theory at length, and she gave me permission to make a video detailing it... so don't go calling this "Squiggly's theory" or anything silly like that! If anything, it's Monpian's theory! She also played the part of "M. Pian, PHD." in this video!
Kalei, who's to blame for a lot of wonderful things, including art and authoring of her own, but who also helped me by acting out our little spy character, "Agent Venetian Merchant." Go check out her stuff on her own site and Tumblr: kaleiworks.net kaleidraws.tumblr.com
Victor McKnight, who you all know from many of our music collaborations (and his own incredible body of work!). Victor was a doll and allowed me to use footage from his recent playthroughs of Sonic 1, Sonic 2, and Sonic 3 & Knuckles in the demonstration of this theory.

LYRICS:
take a deep breath and face the consequences I may not know what the Hell your deal is but even as the whole world falls to pieces I will not break, I won't be defeated
face me now, is this what you wanted? by your own sins now you will be haunted understand you're the one who's fallen wicked hands picked the wicked option
you can turn back to face what's left behind but I can see that you won't be denied come on and lay it all out on the line if your DETERMINATION's more than mine
broke it down and dragged it out did exactly what you weren't supposed to took the LOVE all for yourself now reap what you have sown
all the lives you cast away just to see what else could happen tell me, are you satisfied with carnage in your wake?
underneath a smile and a flash of the knife carving out your own little spot to spread your terror and your strife
I cannot sit by and let you have your way
pickin' up the broken down bits of fate I'm alone with a pain that claims a name by none other than "hate"
TAKE ANOTHER STEP YOU SURE WON'T LIKE WHAT'S NEXT
and if you control more than just your soul understand one thing: (no matter what you do to me) you know not what you'll bring
it's all just a game! it's all just a game! it's all just a game! it's all just a game!
it's all just a game! it's all just a game! how does it know your name? is it really just a game?
it's all just a game! it's all just a game! to you it's all the same, til it breaks through and shakes the frame

LYRICS: Well, well, well! If it isn't Henry! Don't be such a stranger, old buddy! It's been so long since you came back home...
I know you’re seein’, but not believin’ A picture’s worth a thousand words, and look who’s holding the pen You let me out of my cel And all the ink’s run out of the well
I know you’re frightened, but hey just lighten up How else ya gonna see the shadows in the corner of your eyes? We’ve got a killer surprise It’s our thanks for all of your lies
Springin’ from the posters and the reel on the tape, A new dimension for us could be the seal of your fate And all the years you left us rotting here With nothing but rejection made us bitter and cold (So give us what we’re owed!)
I got a million things to say to someone like you Now answer to all of your selfish deeds We are the ones you left behind, you put us out of mind You can’t rewind, it’s far too late for that now
Now the ink is running faster, say your prayers and hope you’ll last Cuz it’s a Hell of a show, And you’re in the front row Oh Henry WELCOME HOME! You’ve been away for far too long
No longer sketches, distorted wretches How could so much have happened since you left so long ago Well, buddy don'tcha know You’re gonna reap what you have sown
Maybe if you blink you’ll see it’s all in your head But while your eyes are closed, you might just wind up dead So make a choice and hope that I don’t hear your voice cuz I’m a-comin', it's the end of the line (You can’t erase this time!)
I got a million memories of agony and pain Sent down the drain like all the other drafts Ya thought you really got away but now it’s time to pay It’s Judgement Day; I’ll have the final laugh
Now the ink is running faster, say your prayers and hope you’ll last Cuz it’s a Hell of a show, And you’re in the front row Oh Henry WELCOME HOME! You’ve been away for far too long
And now as the curtains finally close You’ll see the result of what you chose Did it have to go this way? Maybe if you’d only stayed All this tragedy could have been prevented, but
Springin’ from the posters and the reel on the tape, A new dimension for us could be the seal of your fate And all the years you left us rotting here With nothing but rejection made us bitter and cold (Now give us what we’re owed!)
I got a million things to say to someone like you Now answer to all of your selfish deeds We are the ones you left behind, you put us out of mind You can’t rewind, it’s far too late for that now
Now the ink is running faster, say your prayers and hope you’ll last Cuz it’s a Hell of a show, And you’re in the front row Oh Henry WELCOME HOME! You’ve been away for far too long WELCOME HOME! You’ve been away for far too long WELCOME HOME! You’ve been away for far too long!

This song holds so much joy for both of us. We hope it does for you, too. Enjoy our 2018 UPDATED mix of MANIA!
The original song, "Time Trials," was composed by Hyper Potions for Sonic Mania, then given killer lyrics by Skye Rocket as the fansong-turned-official-cover "Mania!" Check out that WAY PAST COOL original mix by Hyper Potions, Skye Rocket, and DJ Cutman here: youtube.com/watch?v=5BkWPcwc63I

LYRICS: Now power streams through the machine What have I unleashed? can it be true that what Joey drew is coming after me
I'm finding the recordings of what transpired I think that bacon soup must have been expired I'm seeing live cartoons that want to retire me
Bendy and the Ink Machine Beware cartoons have come to life! Bendy and the Ink Machine No I won't be his sacrifice! Bendy and the Ink Machine
(instrumental break)
Bendy and the Ink Machine Beware cartoons have come to life! (instrumental break) No I won't be his sacrifice! Bendy and the Ink Machine
Who did I see walkin' with Bendy? He just disappeared In this world of ink, it's swim or sink and death is always near
I got my wooden axe swingin' with precision To fight this whole ink mob made in Sillyvision And Sammy's gone mad now; he wants to imprison me
Bendy and the Ink Machine Beware cartoons have come to life! Bendy and the Ink Machine No I won't be his sacrifice! Bendy and the Ink Machine
(instrumental break)
Bendy and the Ink Machine Beware cartoons have come to life! (instrumental break) No I won't be his sacrifice! Bendy and the Ink Machine
I hear him crawling in the vents I gotta get out of this Oh, no, no
I hear him crawling in the vents I got to get away from
Bendy and the Ink Machine Beware cartoons have come to life! (instrumental break) No I won't be his sacrifice! Bendy and the Ink MachineYGO Re Animate Collab ShotHailey Lain2017-07-07 | "Haa~ni? Anta no asobi aite ni natteyarouto motta ne...?" A collaborative animation for the Yu-Gi-Oh! Re-Animate project headed up by animator Phui Jing Ling! I did the rough animations and some of the lineart, David Baron helped complete the lineart, and Phui did all the color. This shot is lovingly referred to as "the booty shot," for... obvious reasons.
