"With Me" is the final boss song featured in Sonic and the Black Knight. It is composed by Jun Senoue (who also performed the rhythm guitar for the song) and written by Johnny Gioeli (Crush 40). The song is performed by Emma Gelotte and Tinna Karlsdotter from the band All Ends. It features lead guitar performance by Marty Friedman and guest vocals by Gioelli.

Background[]

The song plays on a continuous loop when Excalibur Sonic battles the Dark Queen. Given the morbid, sinister nature of the lyrics, the song can be interpreted as being sung primarily from Merlina's point of view. Some if not all lyrics can be interpreted as being from Sonic's as well. The song is featured on the album Face to Faith: Sonic and the Black Knight Vocal Trax, along with its instrumental version and a cover by Crush 40.

Lyrics[]

Original[]

You know every world will have its end (have its end)
And I'm here to prove it all to you
I am who you don't think I am (think I am)
All wrapped up in my evil plan
I can taste the day (taste the day)
Savor night (savor night)
Spells beyond you
As I watch you crawl
Do you dare to fight (dare to fight)
Evil's might (evil's might)
I'll be the last one standing
In a flash of light
My eyes (my eyes) are filled with curiosity
You think (you think) that you have power over me
In this life (this life), there's no room for you and me
So, turn away or face this day with me (face the day with me)
With me (face the day with me)
You know, every world will have its test (have its test)
Don't blame for what I have become
You know every world will come to end (come to end)
And I'll create your final rest
I can taste the day (taste the day)
Savor night (savor night)
Scream your dreams
As you dare to fight, dare to fight
My eyes (my eyes) are filled with curiosity
You think (you think) that you have power over me
In this life (this life), there's no room for you and me
So, turn away or face this day with me (face the day with me)
With me (face the day with me)
With me (face the day with me)
With me...
[Guitar solo]
I can taste the day (taste the day)
Savor night (savor night)
Scream your dreams
As you dare to fight, dare to fight
My eyes (my eyes) are filled with curiosity
You think (you think) that you have power over me
In this life (this life) there's no room for you and me
So, turn away or face this day with me (face the day with me)
With me...

Crush 40 Version[]

You know (You know) every world will have its end (have its end)
And I'm here (I'm here) to prove it all to you
I am (I am) who you don't think I am (think I am)
All wrapped up in my evil plan
I can taste the day (taste the day)
Savor night (savor night)
Spells beyond you
As I watch you crawl
Do you dare to fight (dare to fight)
Evil's might (evil's might)
I'll be the last one standing
In a flash of light
My eyes (my eyes) are filled with curiosity
You think (you think) that you have power over me
In this life (this life), there's no room for you and me
So, turn away or face this day with me (face the day with me)
With me... (face the day with me)
You know (You know), every world will have its test (have its test)
