Telling fragmented tales of the past, the Groundskeeper tells one last story before the fall of the last Stadium in existence. About the 2007 college football season, about his life, his family, his friends. All that he has ever had. In the end, the Groundskeeper goes down with his ship, the only place he's ever called home. So goes the death of the Groundskeeper, the death of the Stadium, the death of the memory of the 2007 college football season. When the dust settles, will there be any fragments left to retell the tale. Only time will tell, for time has taken it's toll.

lyrics

time disrupted
for that i know
the aftermath of the fall
are certain to us all

these tales i have grown
reach high into the sky
in my heart i know it's real
but i know i cannot prove

just take a look upon the brittle pages
of a once historic sacred tradition
just keep turning, keep turning
and thus, the pages will wear and tear away

Let the story be told
for time has taken it's toll
let the story be told
for they never made a difference

the opposition, i must decree
preserve what's left behind
the pieces are all we have
a bleak sign of the times

till my last breath
i make my final stand
i'll stay behind
Stadium Eternus

just one more look upon them warn out pages
it's far to gone now to make a difference
what really happened on those ancient days
the story will suffice, this story must

Let the story be told
for time has taken it's toll
let the story be told
for they never made, they never made a difference

what if everything i know
the stories i have told
are moments of a single fragment of the truth

buried beneath the shards of broken glass
lie the answer forgotten
the ruin of a lesser past

"evacuate the premise immediately
i repeat, evacuate immediately!"

"the roar of the crowd
echoes in eternity
the memories I've shared
etched in these walls
the moments that we had
the emotions that we spilled
I've kept them all alive
I've kept you all alive

in this place that I've called home"

i won't leave
i'll never leave
this place that I've called home

i won't leave
i'll never leave
this place that I've called home

Just take a look (just take a look)
just one more look (just one more look)

i won't leave
i'll never leave
this place that I've called home

i won't leave
i'll never leave
this curse that I've called home

i won't leave
i'll never leave
this place that I've called home

i won't leave
we'll never leave
this place that we've called home

let the story be told
for time has taken it's toll
let the story be told
for they never made, they never made a difference

we never made a difference

on this day we took control
on this day we soared the skies
on this day we brought our own demise
on this day the lesser forgotten will...
