Apparently, I kept muttering the first stanza aloud. I hope no one thinks I'm crazy...

The curtains draw open
The characters appear
The protagonist raises their sword
The storyline is clear.

With broken masks
Of grief and sorrow
The plot plays out
Never reaching a tomorrow.

And it doesn't matter
If the good guys win
It's all about the princess
Nothing in between
