Phoenix Song
04:45
|
|||
I wanted to be happy but I didn’t know how
Then I heard the music that is still with me now
The most beautiful song that I’ve ever known
Whenever I hear it I feel like I’m home
Chorus:
The phoenix song is rising
It brings courage to my heart
The melody is hope and light
When all I see is dark
My spirit fills with golden sparks
Of joy and peace and love
I’ll always look up to the sky
When the phoenix flies above
When it appears it never stays long
Before it flies off, it sings its sad song
Remembering all of the souls that we’ve lost
Reminding us never to forget the cost
Chorus
The song is like a heavy rain after a drought
Or the feeling of finally figuring out
Just how important you were all along
And finding a family in which you belong
Chorus

My Friends
03:36
|
|||
These hallways are familiar, the columns made of stone
But Hogwarts feels much emptier now that I’m alone
I lost two friends to curses, one’s in Azkaban
But I’ll move on and live my life in any way I can
Chorus:
Peter, James, you died too young. It won’t ever be fair
Sirius, I trusted you and you were always there
When I needed someone to love and hold and hide
My life has never been the same since you left my side
I teach classes every day, I meet students and staff
I try my best to smile when those around me laugh
I miss my friends, I miss them more than I could ever say
I think about them all the time, they’re with me every day
Chorus
Severus still hates me but brews my potions well
My students are excelling with every new spell
Dumbledore is kind to me and treats me as a friend
I would give it all away if I could see you again
Chorus

Agender Ace
03:17
|
|||
Chorus:
Please don’t call me lady or ma’am or miss
I’ll give you lots of hugs but I don’t want to kiss
I’ll be your friend if you respect my space
My name is Luna Lovegood...
And I’m an agender ace
Gender is a spectrum, this is something I’ve found
The longer that I live my life, the longer I’m around
I notice that I don’t quite fit into your description
I don’t feel like I am a girl, I wish that you would listen
Chorus
I’ve never had a boyfriend and a girlfriend only one
People think that I am strange and don’t want to have fun
Just because I do not feel attraction like you do
Doesn’t mean I’m broken or invalid or untrue
Chorus
We don’t have to be the same for you to understand
There are many ways to live your life, so hold out your hand
And take this journey on with me, we’ll go side by side
We’ll make a difference in the world and open people’s eyes
Chorus

I was only thirteen when they took me away
I begged them and told them I needed to stay
They tore me away from my mum and dad
Said I was a witch and took all that I had
Chorus:
I didn’t know how to Apparate and they took away my wand
They burned me at the stake by the willow pond
Before I could decide what hurt me the most
The pain was gone and I was a ghost
Thirteen short years is not long to live
I never got the chance to show what I could give
For years I stayed by my family
Until they all died, and now there’s just me
Chorus
Out of all the things that I miss
From my home to mom’s goodnight kiss
I miss what my death took away:
My future and my will to stay
Chorus
I wasn’t old enough to decide
Whether to go on after I died
So I’ll stay here forever more
A ghost waiting at death’s door
Chorus

The Petrified Ghost
02:33
|
|||
Ever since I was declared dead
By my nearly-severed head
I became a ghost and I tried to make the most
Of the rest of my death here on earth…
Chorus:
I still got petrified by the basilisk
Out of all the things I never thought I'd miss
It's being so scared I
Could run away or sit and cry
And at least I had the choice when I was alive
Floating down the hallway I spy
Something in the corner of my eye
I still regret that double-take
That made me see the giant snake
It would have just been easier to die…
Chorus
I bet you have been wondering how
I came back to talk with you now
I'll never tell you how to take
The healing juice of a mandrake
To make a ghost come back around...
Chorus

Goodbye
02:55
|
|||
From my first time in Diagon Alley
She was with me through it all
For seven years she never strayed
Faithful up until her fall
She’s the one that hurt the most
She was never made to fight
In the war that we were in
By my side until that night
Chorus:
I didn’t even see them come
I never got to say goodbye
In your cage you couldn’t move
When the curse came from the sky
Goodbye, Goodbye, Goodbye, Goodbye
She knew when I was feeling down
Was always there to listen
She brought me letters from my friends
When the Dursleys’ felt like prison
I don’t know where the curse came from
That was meant for me instead of you
I can never bring you back
I miss you, Hedwig, I really do
Chorus

Female to Werewolf
02:53
|
|||
Chorus:
Just a reminder: Remus Lupin is trans
He takes his T shots and his wolfsbane when he can
When the full moon comes out he turns into both
This transgender man is female to werewolf
When he first came out as a younger boy
He felt so free, his heart was full with hopefulness and joy
But then he got that fateful bite which changed him with the moon
He found out as the month went on that change would happen soon
But not the change he wanted
Chorus
His heart is full of love to give to Tonks and Sirius
But in the full moon’s light he gets delirious
And he forgets the man he is and his chosen family
Who accept him for who he is, who want him to be free
Because he is a wolf now
Chorus

That Halloween night we all know
What happened in Godric’s Hollow
We lost a witch and wizard in the war
In a flash of bright green light
The curse was cast that fateful night
Their son the prophecy was meant for
Chorus:
Lily and James were only 21
When they gave their lives for their son
I think that many of us forget
Just how young they were and yet
They were only 21
Lived their lives and they were done
James and Lily were so young
They were only, they were only 21
What happened to the cat they had
After Harry lost his mom and dad?
I hope it made it out all right
The house is still there today
As a monument, people say
They’ll never forget that night
Chorus
They protected what was theirs
Voldemort didn’t care
He killed them with a flick of his wand
Lily took her final breath
James had already greeted death
Their souls cried out, then they were gone
Chorus

The Maze
04:15
|
|||
Chorus:
I was with my mom and dad for one last time
Before the whistle blew and I said goodbye
I walked to the maze with Harry by my side
I never thought that would be the day I died
Light up my wand with Lumos for a little light
Come to a fork and I choose to go right
Inside the maze is as dark as can be
A blast-ended skrewt finds its way to me
It burns my sleeve with a fire blast
I try to fight and then get away at last
Then I run into Viktor Krum
He casts Crucio and I think that I’m done
Chorus
Harry arrives to save the day
He knocks Krum out and we go our separate ways
Finally I find it - the Triwizard Cup
I should have looked down, I was only looking up
Because I tripped over an acromantula leg
I cast a few spells and I thought it would break
But only with Harry could we do it in
That moment I knew that I’d let Harry win
Chorus
Now I am dead and there’s nothing I can do
I took my final breath and my living days are through
I know it will be hard on my family and Cho
But You-Know-Who decided it was time for me to go
Chorus

Halloween Waltz
02:05
|
|||
Hogwarts has always excelled at decorations
The Great Hall is surely the best
My favorite holiday at the end of October
Never fails to impress
Chorus:
We’ve got bats and black cats, spiders, cauldrons and pumpkins
Candles that float on their own
Then it’s time that we dine on the Halloween feast
Food that makes all the ghosts groan
So come on and dance to the Halloween music
We’ll keep the trolls out if we can
At the end of the night we’ll go to bed happy
If all goes according to plan
For entertainment we have dancing skeletons
Or the party for Nearly Headless Nick
Be careful if you go, the food is all rotten
I’d suggest getting out quick
Chorus
