Inside sources obtained an early draft of CCP Guard’s final farewell song, as he decides that even the music industry is more stable than games. This piece, strongly reminiscent of “Don’t Cry For Me Argentina,” is rumored to be the first of several pieces Guard is composing and will make available to Patreon subscribers:



It won’t be easy, you’ll think it strange

When I try to explain how I feel

That I need a step ladder although I’m full grown

I’ll still be with you, although I won’t be the same Guard you once knew

Although I can drink now in the day

On drunk roams and gatecamps with you



I had to let it happen, I had to change

Couldn’t stay all my life at CCP

Locked up in a basement, staying out of the sun

So I chose Fanfest, running around drinking everything new

But nothing impressed me like you

I never expected it to



Don’t cry for me please, New Eden

The truth is, I’ll never leave you

I’ll have a new clone, most skills all trained up,

Might be your FC

Might blow your ship up



And as for the band, as for CSM

You’ll all be just fine I am sure

Though it seemed to the world I’m an integral part

You do not need me, you have the ship friendship that’s all that you need

The answer was here all the time

I love you, and hope you love me

Don’t cry for me please, New Eden



Don’t cry for me please, New Eden

The truth is, I’ll never leave you

I’ll have a new clone, most skills all trained up,

Might be your FC

Might blow your ship up
