A song based on my stories (and later comics) set in the DMFA universe, where the more powerful creatures can extend their lives by consuming the souls of other people. This raises certain ethical dilemmas.

The Dark Price of Eternal Youth
(Chronicles of Jakob Pettersohn)
Three thousand years you'll live to be
But after that won't come for free
Could you pay the price?
End another's afterlife?
I think that's not the way for me
Eternal youth is in your hands
But could do what it demands?
Could you pay the price?
Make a human sacrifice?
I think that's not the way for me
Would you pay that price?
End another's afterlife?
I think that's not the way for me
Would you pay that price?
Make your heart as cold as ice?
I think that's not the way for me
Would you pay that price?
End another's afterlife?
I think that's not the way for me
Would you pay that price?
Make a Being sacrifice?
I think that's not the way for me
