Jack Was Never

 

[[This is a transformative work of “Sera Was Never” from “Dragon Age: Inquisition”]] ((An RP version (written book) of the work can be possibly found in one of Helena’s bookstore, or contact me if you want it.))

(My lyrics don’t perfectly fit with the melody of the song so consider some vowel adjustments when reading it compared to the song)

 

As he seats on the seat of his study, the mali’ame Siol’Avern looks around the room. His head wonders around his life for a moment as he takes up to himself some creative and musical inspiration. His thoughts go to his good friend Jack Reynold. Coming up with a nice and cheerful rythm not long ago, he decides to make a ballad on his friend’s tale; so he picks up a book from under his desks and begins his writing.

Before writing the song he states scribes: ”The Ballad you are about to read tells the tale of my dear and good friend, Jack Reynolds; a man I, Siol the Bard, was almost asked to kill but assisted on keeping alive instead”

After the author’s note the ballad continues with guiding musical notes atop the lyrics which depict how it is to be played and sounded.

[Verse 1]

♪Jack was rarely an agreeable lad,
His story shows marks of misfortune♪
♪For he was not, the luckiest man
When his head was near execution♪
 

[Verse 2]

♪Jack was never quite the following man -
His steps were fast; independent♪
♪And so did our little Jackey lad 
Come enlisting into the army♪
 

[Chorus]

♪But he did not quite fancy-it much
So he decided not to show up more♪
♪And instead went to the tavern, not the drill♪
♪He’s a rogue and a loner and
He’ll find his fate.♪

♪But he did not like it much
So he decided not to show up more♪
♪And instead went to the tavern, not the drill♪
♪He’s a rogue and a loner and
He’ll find his fate.♪

 

[Verse 3]

♪Jack’s path led him to Helena
Some say he lived in the tavern.♪
♪But he did meet Siol in that same place
Where they spoke and became good friends♪

 

[Verse 4]

♪Siol was also part of the Heanse army
His lute plays songs for the women♪
♪And Jack would tell him he was a wanted man
And it was because of ‘desertion’♪

 

[Chorus]

♪He would always like to say:
“They want my head to take away today. But I will not return there once again,
 for I was done wrong and
It’s not my fate”♪

♪But Siol the bard would then say:
“You have to come back there with me today,
Or they will ask me to chop your head,
And I kill no friends for any reason”♪

 

[Verse 5]

♪Jack was never the fretting man,
But he did all he could for his own friends♪
♪So he came back to train in the army,
And the sword saw no execution.♪

 

[Chorus]

♪And from now he’d like to say:
“I will come back here every next day
And I’ll keep my head for the army now,
I’m no rogue, but I’m lone
And I’ll find my fate”♪

♪And from now he’d like to say:
“I will come back here every next day
And I’ll keep my head for the army now,
I’m no rogue, but I’m lone
And I’ll find my fate”♪

Forgot to comment on this one but I REALLY like the second chorus with the dialogue.
