Ha, I bet you thought I was never going to finish this, didn't you? (Uh, those few of you who even know who I am...) But you were wrong. I know it took me well over a year, but I was just, uh, biding my time. Waiting for the right moment. Yeah.
Anyway, Sound Horizon being as wonderfully yet headache-inducingly complicated as it is, I'd very much appreciate feedback.

NOTES:
The words in square brackets are what is sung, where it differs from what is written in the lyrics booklet.
The sections in regular parentheses are not in the lyrics booklet at all, and I'm going off of a patchwork of different transcriptions that I found on the internets, with some help from my own ears. There's not that much variation in the transcriptions that I found, but those portions are still... iffy.
Thanks in advance!
