Lament of Captain Placeholder

The Lament of Captain Placeholder was a song created for Captain Placeholder after Blizzard had removed him from the game, a dedicated player going by the alias Eledainn created a song about him, which can be found at some of the external links.


 * –Verse 1–


 * On the stormy shores of Azeroth,
 * A silhouette did stand.
 * A brave and stalwart sailor
 * Who gave a helpin' hand.
 * Without fail, on every whim,
 * Which we did demand,
 * He simply smiled and waved his hand,
 * And sent us 'cross the land.


 * –Chorus–
 * Farewell to thee, Placeholder,
 * Your ship has sailed to sea.
 * We'll tip our hats and pray one day
 * To be as great as thee.
 * Captain P, you'll never know the emptiness inside
 * As we sit ashore on Menethil, waitin' for a ride.


 * –Verse 2–
 * Time did pass, until, one day,
 * That silhouette did fade.
 * Where once we found Placeholder
 * Only scattered winds remained.
 * The stormy sea went silent
 * On that dark and dreary day.
 * But come along, my friends,
 * Let's raise a glass up for his name!


 * –Chorus–


 * –Musical Interlude–


 * –Verse 3–
 * So when you find yourself lamenting
 * On that lonely pier,
 * Watching as the ships come in,
 * And dryin' off your tears,
 * Believe in what he stood for,
 * And I know that he’ll survive.
 * Inside our hearts dear Placeholder
 * Will always be alive!


 * –Chorus–
