Listening to my Rolan playlist and it just hits me how much these lines in Caramel by Sleep Token remind me of how I see Rolan's internal thoughts in Act 3 while he is still an apprentice to Lorroakan. 😭

so i wander through these nights

i prefer hiding in plain sight

my fourth drink in my hand

these desperate prayers of a cursed man

spilling out to you for free

but darling, darling, please

you wouldn't take my word for it

I fell from a star in the sky up above and now I'm here to cheer you up I'll make you smile like it's my job, that's the only thing I'm good for Cuz I'm just a useless ray of goddamn sunshine and I'll try my best to brighten your day

I can't burn forever so I'll shine as bright and fast as I can before my light flickers out

I have no form of passion and I wander around aimlessly

But I can make you happier you if you just chose to deal with me

I may not be able to do anything useful but I'll try and act like I do

You say I could have taught you something but I could have learned to

To do things right like you to find place in life but I guess that doesn't matter now

May we never go to hell but always be on our way

I'm sure it didn't mean much but I always hang onto everything you say

I look up to you, I'll talk till our ears bleed and you'll grow to hate me, I'll hang onto everything word even when it hurts I'm sorry

I just want you to like me

that's the only thing I'm good for Cuz I'm just a useless ray goddamn sunshine and I'll try my best to brighten your day even if I'm not okay

I can't burn forever so I'll shine as bright and fast as I can before my light flickers out

I have no form of passion so I wander around aimlessly

That's why I'm here

Mom was hoping you would whip me into shape

I hope she doesn't think she's to blame
