  • Hello everyone! I’m back and so excited to share with you my first ever Critical Role song! If you don’t know what Critical Role is, it’s a streaming show on Twitch and RUclips where a bunch of nerdy voice actors come together and play Dungeons and Dragons. I’ve been a fan since 2019, and I’ve been wanting to do a song about the show for a while now. This one is about my favorite character from Campaign 2 of the show, Caleb Widogast, played by Liam O'Brien. This song is about some of the early reveals of Caleb's backstory, so slight spoiler warning. I hope you all enjoy!
    A huge thank you and shoutout to Matt Barber from The Sandbox Recording Studio for helping me put this song together. He did all the amazing instrumentals and the mixing on this song and I personally think it sounds awesome!
    Art by me.

    Lyrics:
    A kind act of charity
    A window of clarity
    A break from my insanity
    The memories are clear now
    All the lies they taught me
    The screams, the flames, they haunt me
    And all of the pain it's brought me
    Can't match the guilt I feel now
    So let me burn, burn, burn
    Let me burn, burn, burn
    Let this fire burn my pyre. Let me burn
    Let me burn, burn, burn
    I've wandered all on my own
    No place to call home
    Searching for answers but I know
    The ash is all that's left now
    The guilt will gnaw at my soul
    Until I pay my last toll
    Don't try to reframe my role
    I know who gets the blame now
    So let me burn, burn, burn
    Let me burn, burn, burn
    Let this fire burn my pyre. Let me burn
    Let me burn, burn, burn
    So pile the burning coals upon my head
    Leave me to rot and suffer for what I did
    Chains of flames around my mind won't let me soon forget
    The haunted memories of the dead
    So let me burn, burn, burn
    Let me burn, burn, burn
    Let this fire burn my pyre. Let me burn
    Let me burn, burn, burn
    And now, a few words: Critical Role, Campaign 2, dungeons and dragons, dnd, d&d, Caleb Widogast, fan song, fantasy, angst
    Not to us, O Lord, not to us,
    But to Your name give glory
    Because of Your loving kindness, because of Your truth.
    Psalms 115:1

    I think my favorite line is “let this fire burn my pyre, let me burn”
    It just flows really nicely and feels perfect

    I’ve only just gotten into Critical Role through the Legend of Vox Machina, and following the announcement of a Mighty Nein animated series, I wanted to look into the backstories of the characters. Holy cow is Caleb’s backstory tragic, and you encapsulated it perfectly.

    “Chains of flames around my mind won’t let me soon forget
    The haunted memories of the dead”
    It gives me chills. This was really emotional and painted a vivid picture of what he felt. I’m don’t watch Critical Role, but great job, Knight of Endale! 😃

    there are few artists I know that are capable of telling a story through the mere act of song alone. No real visuals to add just singing, and frankly you are amazing at it. I haven't watched this season of Critical Role, yet this song makes them so interesting and makes me wanna watch it. I can't wait to listen to more of these. I hope to see more at least, not pressure. If I may recommend percival de rolo, I am a bit bias to classical artificers but I think you may enjoy writing a song on them with how well you just nail tragic characters

    This sounds different from your other songs, and I love it so very much. Though I've never heard of Critical Role, I love how you're able to paint emotions from your lyricd and your tone. And the CHORUS. That was amazing.

    This song is absolutely wonderful. I have never seen Critical Role, but just from this song i can kinda get an idea what the charachters story might be. For me in the song he seems like someone who lost his home and then spend the time to get it back, as coping with the loss, but (and there i am not sure) he was the one who caused the downfall of his home or he did so many bad things that he is worse in the end.
