I know you're just shitposting but this one reply made the whole thing worth it, thank you.

>Final: Ouroboros (Part 2)
>A moment in history, a flicker in time
>A mystery I still can’t break through
>I’m deathly defiant of crossing that line
>I don’t want to break down before you…
Mori's no longer a monster she needs to fight against, nor is she an all-powerful goddess who's beyond this singer's capacity to contain.
She's a quiet, momentary little spark who the artist wants to be a proper host for, someone who can make her potential bloom rather than someone who cuts it short.
>Reach downward to glory, yet upward- what for?
>An ouroboros of earthly desire
This is the it, this is the monster at the heart of it all. This is the thing anons hate so much about Mori.
The way she can't just kill off her past life like most of the other Holos do.
The way Jump King goes from being her most fun arc ever to her most depressing one.
The way she gushes over Gawr Gura, Nakiri Ayame, Mai Princess, Ironmouse and some idiot doing interpretive dance over Spiral Tones with the exact same love, even though they're all supposed to be enemies or something
The way she loves Coco so much it makes her stay up, and clam up, and look like a crackhead in front of thousands, achieving the exact opposite effect of what's intended.
The way her dumbass luck always seems to prove itself right and that fall from grace never seems to come, no matter how many times she fucks up - but then those victories only make her ambition grow that much bigger, until she crashes and burns and learns all over again that the deadbeats have her back.
I know you faggots don't get music theory in the slightest, and lyric analysis is probably too much to ask too, but even /vt/ understands that the Ouroboros is, like its big-titted mistress, a symbol of timelooping. In the context of OUR big-titted mistress, however, it's specific to the cycle of death and rebirth - that these rises and falls are never really going away, that we're locked in the eternal struggle SUA so boldly declared in its conclusion.
>Devouring my tale just to tell it once more
>Am I still the gold statue you admire?
Mori will never stop thinking back on the past. She will never stop cringing at her past (let alone present) self. She will never stop trying to reinvent herself, her story, and her world, always striving, hoping, that the next spin of Samsara will lead to something a little better than what came before. This is the sigma grindset that is both her greatest strength and her worst weakness. She WILL NOT give up, and all she can do is hope that we'll stick with her.
Also gold statue is an idol pun where she's setting herself up as a manufactured religious figure because that's what idols are deep down, they're symbols who exist to tell a lie well enough to become our truth.
>I sang about a journey’s end, and now we come upon
>Another one
>The sun setting earlier than believed
This_Is_A_Sequel_To_End_Of_A_Life.txt. Just in case the album title and the past 6 songs didn't give that shit away yet
>From this point downward, I cannot return
>For the final dream I sought is so close yet far within my reach
The ironic unironic post-ironic cringekino ironic weeb fake genuine GFE ride never ends, the "I'll never go back on my dream" thread that was so hopeful before is now just a resigned "well, shit, guess I've got no choice", framed as an endless descent into the Underworld
>Though I’d like it to be known
>This I made on my own
The self-contradiction NEVER ENDS
Now she's saying that fuck you, I know what I said before about how this dream isn't just my own, but forget that shit. It IS just my own. Now to repeat that chorus about how we're descending into the Underworld TOGETHER, aka NOT on my own...
>Release from our confinement
>Together, we’ll find it
>The trail is fraught with perils
...but with one last twist.
>And maybe all is as it should be
>I promise I’ll still be me
Now listen close...
>My mistakes
>Somehow made a good story great
Fatebeats, see pic related. This bitch is going to become our idol, AND she's going to do that without betraying either us or herself, AND she knows she completely "fell backwards" into this position like she said in the watchalong, but the fuckups have left her better off than she would have been without falling down this rabbit hole with us.
In other words, it's her confirming the thesis she laid out at the end of the first Elliot song, the very last line of UnAlive the track, and the entire fucking point of UnAlive the album:
>In Death, I’m somehow more alive
No, it doesn't make any goddamn sense. And yet here we are, seeing that in action every single stream.
>A journey downward toward somewhere new, yet familiar
>I’m learning how to stand
>For the smiles I swear to defend
>Till the end
>As we further descend, then
>Shall we go?
>Swallowed up by what waits below [no longer "Fates"]
If you're willing to come along, that is.
