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


...But do te remember how sad te looked?
Did te 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 te made all our graves' beds?

...I couldn't perceive,
Why te spoke so softly to me,
te didn't threaten me with "beware"
te were just too full of despair...
To...even care...
So te stood there,
Listening to my commentary
While I was wailing like a Banshee for te to believe
That humans don't deserve to die,
te 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 più than scarce
But then te 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 te remember it?
How te whispered it?
How te stayed true to it?
How te so well emphasized it?

te glanced at me for a second, no più 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 te saved us,
But I knew "I" had just saved the world!
da changing your motives in a moment's whorl!
I did something important for once,
I saved everyone in the audience!

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

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

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

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

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

She may have let te stay at her place when te were hurt,
But I was first
She may have promised te her worth,
But te 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 te helped find Cream
Even while it didn't benefit te o 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."
