"Jack's Lament" is a song by Antimo and Welles that plays during the ending credits of Below the Bedrock. The vocals were performed by Fred Tatasciore, who voiced Jack. In the story, the song was dedicated to Sammy and Vos.[3]
Thought my adventures were over, I was content to let life pass me by
That is until a young hero, came along with a glint in their eye
They said “Jack do you think you can give me a hand, for mine is trapped in a glove from the sea.”
I thought I had left the seas behind, but the seas came a-callin’ for me.
It’s a lonely road for a hero
The road is a bittersweet friend
For the road is cold and it’s hollow
But it’s all you’ll have left in the end.
Sure there is glory…
in my tragic backstory,
But that is not why I’m swole.
For nothing builds shoulders
Like regrets, big as boulders,
As sure as the grief takes it’s toll.
I’m thankful my arms are so ripped, or I’d have been crushed from the start.
And I’m grateful my pecs are so jacked, to hold the pain of my broken heart.
My faces, they’ll never leave me, so I wrote them this sad serenade.
For the curse of a memory that’s perfect is that those faces, they’ll never fade.
It’s a lonely road for a hero
But I won’t be alone at its end.
For I will wait in the shallows.
Until we meet again.
