    To me, vocals really felt out of place and I decided to remove them for the purpose of comparing it to the original. Opinions welcome.

    This has a real Netflix Daredevil vibe, if you will. I think, however, that a purely instrumental version of this song would have been orchestrated and arranged with a lead instrument filling in for the missing vocals to lend a stronger sense of the piece's melody; a violin probably, given Arcane's general love of the violin in its score.

I totally understand why people like that music, it's just not my favorite. Doesn't always end up being the same quality without them, but I like listening anyway to find out.

To simply change the tone of the episode's start, end, cliifhanger or continuation to the next. I think it's cool.

    dasz się zbyć pochlebstwem
    lecz w sercu nikt cię nie chce
    o, twój pot i łzy
    są bezwartościowe, bo zawadzasz im
    chcą bez ciebie iść
    w głębi serca każdy kpi nie znaczysz nic
