Nico di Angelo | Child of Death (Gio Navas)

Lyrics video from the original song written and sung by Gio Navas in tribute to Nico di Angelo.
Gio's Video - • Original "Child of Dea...
LYRICS | By Gio Navas
The Mist hides what we know is true,
but only what it chooses to.
It says my hands are smeared with blood.
Child of Death must be the one
to cloud the world with his despair.
To suck the spirit from the air.
Child of Death; I walk alone.
I've lost all that I once called home.
Screaming
But the world is deaf.
Pleading
I have nothing left.
Crying
For who's in their sight.
Dying
Because they are right.
I feel alone and so afraid.
I hear demons calling my name.
"There's something wrong with you," they scream.
They aren't so far off, it seems.
My heart is twisted, heavy, wrong.
It's like it knows I don't belong.
The world is big, lovely to be.
And yet, there is no place for me.
Falling
Into what they think.
Calling
Death to watch me sink.
Tell me
How to numb my heart.
Take me.
I'm falling apart.
Now the world is dark and cruel.
It's not the game I thought it was.
You can't start over when you lose.
You pay the price; everyone does.
How did everything go wrong?
Why do I no longer belong?
Tell me how to numb my heart.
If not, I'll surely fall apart.
Child of death.
Count his last breath.
Child of death; I walk alone.
Screaming
But the world is deaf.
Pleading
I have nothing left.
Crying
For who's in their sight.
Dying
Because they are right.
Tell me
How to numb my heart.
Take me.
I'm falling apart.
Child of death; I walk alone.

[@GirlyElla02]

Between this and Soldatino I have never cried so much in my life for my poor bby Neeks :'(

[@fionalindberg4562]

I know, right? I have never cried so much!

[@skyclaw1033]

yes I just wanna find Nico, and HUG HIM FOREVER

[@Clueless-hu7gd]

I cried once listening to both of those

[@kaitlynfairfield3346]

me too. I cry every time I listen to soldatino. That and Good Kid from Percy Jackson the musical. If you've never listened to it, I highly recommend you do.

[@luzr_bug]

Go listen to Sunshine Boy and you'll feel better. :'( 🖤

[@k.k-79-]

Our baby Nico deserves so much more! He was the one who had talked to Hestia when no one did, he was the one who lost everyone at such a young age, he was the one who played the background hero and gave Percy the idea to bathe in the river Styx, he was the one who convinced his dad, the scariest god of all, to fight when Kronos rose to power, he was the one who went to both Camp Jupiter and Half-Blood and still kept it a secret, he was the one who went to look for the doors of death alone, he was the one who got thrown into Tartarus and made it out alive without any help whatsoever, he was the one who was trapped inside a figgin jar for days, living on only pomegranate seeds, he was the one who helped the seven reach the house of hades and he was the one who helped restore the Athena Parthenos, almost killing himself in the process. Nico di Angelo was, is and will always be the bravest character in the Rick Riordan universe in my opinion. Always.

[@OwhatOtoOcallOmyself]

let us remember to kill rick if he hurts our boy

[@hjonk5301]

why...? I-I'm not c-crying, I j-just got a b-bunch of o-onions sobs

[@anniesazev]

Ahaha lmao

[@harrypottergirl7773]

Haha lol :D

[@bluepearl1575]

I hate them onions....:'(

[@delythroberts2562]

When I first watched this, I hadn't read all the books. But now when I've re-watched it, I'm actually crying. It's so true to Nico! *crawls into a corner and cries for an hour*

[@gabrielaconstanza8735]

i cant stand it... nico....*crying right now* i just cant....

[@irenaspaseska4020]

It ok Annabeth he will have his happy ending soon

[@luzr_bug]

Same.

[@reptilegeeksarentfreaks6319]

This made me cry. Not only because of Nico, but also because of how similar this is to me...

[@harrypottergirl7773]

awww I'm sorry you feel like that :(

[@dianabimbalova1347]

Know what you mean.

[@Clueless-hu7gd]

Same. Im a child, for one, death clouds my thoughts because I have anxiety and almost have developed depression. WTH I'm not even in middle school and I feel like I'm going to have a heart attack. Happiness is hard to come by, and this song channels all my unhappiness and makes me feel better for the four minutes and thirteen seconds it plays

[@Nixiiun]

that freaky fangirl same here i get what you mean

[@amelialabbe-fahy7282]

Same

[@celesteflores550]

* crying * Oh my gods...Nico...I love you...

[@uglashka]

Nico - gay. >:>

[@sophierose4405]

when i first the lyric "falling into what they think" i was a bit confused,but i think it means that Nico is a bit self-consciousness and cares what people think so he's falling into their words

[@melinakorovessi713]

yeah i think it means like how people think that children of hades are dark and evil and hes falling into that steryotype

[@hyperfixationcentral6200]

Lyrics like "my heart is twisted, heavy, wrong" take on a whole new meaning when you know about Nico's struggle with accepting himself and being gay

[@lnolen101]

I feel like nico needs a happy ending

[@galaxymoon8351]

YEEES! he needs happiness! I luv him so much, he's my favorite character in the series! Nico do Angelo deserves some happiness

[@galaxymoon8351]

YEEES! he needs happiness! I luv him so much, he's my favorite character in the series! Nico do Angelo deserves some happiness

[@taylortruss4501]

I completely agree with ur argument.

[@ladybookwormsinger1228]

***** think about solangelo!!

[@Clueless-hu7gd]

tahkumee SOLANGELO IS MY LIFE!!!!! But I agree, the ship is kinda cute😀

[@GioNavas]

The fanart is beautiful. Do you have any idea who drew it? Anyway, thanks so much for supporting the song and making this. It looks great ;-;

[@anniesazev]

OMG! Thank you! I love Nico and I'm sad for him. And your song is perfect. Sorry, I do not know who drew it. :c

[@ALotOfCancer]

If i had to guess, judging by the style it's most likely made by the artist known as "Viria"

[@VictoriaMeira7]

***** yeah, probably viria.

[@Pcsc1008]

Victoria Meira Viria most likely.

[@luthorsings6102]

Gio Navas no it not viria but it someone else

[@TheAmityElf]

Guys, just clarifying, this is by Gio Navas.

[@anniesazev]

I also made ​​clear in the description, please do not think ill. Just did the lyrics of the music video of Gio.

[@TheAmityElf]

Oh, no, I wasn't saying you were taking credit or anything. This is a really good video. I was just clarifying, in case some people didn't read the description or something...Yeah. Was that unnecessary? :/ Haha Keep up the good work.

[@starrsteele8806]

this song is beautiful on so many levels. it makes me want to cry thinking about how Nico feels....😢

[@flyx6072]

Her voice almost brought me to tears with its beauty :,)

[@rorigale3391]

My heart is heavy, twisted, wrong (I think that line is perfect, because Nico is gay and he thinks that it’s wrong)

[@poseidonsdauger]

He finally accepts himself and gets a boyfriend

[@user-hk4fm5fo9r]

I like this one too but I love Soldatino (Nico's lullaby)

[@cerpiper]

Yesss I like that one too 😆😆

[@omshukla2612]

Same

[@amelialabbe-fahy7282]

I wish this song and soldatino were on spotify

[@isabelmontano4941]

I love this song but I hate how much I relate to it

[@needbleach2009]

Leaders of the Not coming back Me and you both.

[@justamisunderstoodkidnamed9928]

Leaders of the Not coming back why do I relate so much? Oh yeah I have depression and social anxiety(which seems to make me push people away before they push me away/a loner). Having both is a living Hell. I have a piece of Hell in my head. My mind is so fucked up. Love the song but hate how much I relate to it.

[@arwaaboulella6951]

i love this song it reminds me so much of nico and its sad but true

[@emesea.2181]

"Now the world is dark and cruel, it's not the game I thought it was" This is so Nico. He liked gods and monsters, until it came true...

[@amanix10]

I love how her voice is ACTUALLY amazing without Autotune

[@crossoverqueen1775]

This song describes me and Nico perfectly. I swear I'm like a female version of him.

[@Tadpoleboy]

I love how much this goes w/ nicos dark emo angst-ness. My favorite thing is when will call him out on it like, I have been attracted to you for years and you've made this very difficult to convey chill out and let me kiss you

[@highlanderghost]

this song takes my breath away, it is so gorgeous, dear gods. amazing.

[@h.j.a.9568]

Oh gods, this is so good! I love Nico and I just want to give him a big hug. 😥

[@jessicawells4943]

Oh my gods this was beautiful!!!! I love Nico so much and I also feel sad for him ;-;

[@anungunrama9344]

well your amazing. Nico is amazing and when I read page 292 of house of Hades I screamed In my hand that mix of emotions.

[@izzylightwood464]

same

[@skyclaw1033]

ik.. I'm not sure if...... UGH. Y NICO????????? WHY NOT OCTAVIAN????

[@aaliyahsteward9383]

But Hades dose rule over the dead

[@mariyakoceva2374]

I am going to be so mad if Rick does anything else to poor nico or solangelo

[@AquaEclipse324]

i MADE IT 69 LIKES NOT SURE PROUD OR ASHAMED

[@romanred2010]

I really do enjoy this song, I need to do a serious book jam session of heroes of olympus to truly relate

[@S.Snow9]

That was absolutely beautiful ...... I'm crying.

[@hattlord_]

My friends say my dad is Hades and Nico di Angelo is my older brother.

[@taylortruss4501]

I don't think Nico should have a song written about the type of way he acts. It truly isn't his fault. He's gone through a lot of heartbreak in his life and it has truly changed him.

[@misssoda0437]

I always cry when I hear this song ;--;

[@anniesazev]

[@Clueless-hu7gd]

Sneaky Assassin I know! I considered using this for my talent show, but I couldn't get through it.

[@iveyromano4234]

This makes me cry because this is how I feel 24/7 and cry myself to sleep like all the time so this song really hit me but it sounds really good

[@violetsmith3364]

This is why you get the best boyfriend ever, dear Nico, get your Will and never let him go! Dear Nico, you belong with him. Your sunlight, your light.

[@jana.k1098]

I want this song to play in the Disney+ Percy Jackson adaptation in the moment when Percy tells Nico his sister died, then Nico runs away in the forest and Percy finds out Nico is a son of Hades.

[@annabelecassarole8020]

Omg that would be so cool. I defently think Nico should get a epizode in seson for BoL, and maybe we could get this song in background as we watch him with Minos

[@mauryaasibal]

True. T.R.U.E

[@bookraftymaniac126]

so heartwrenching

[@sassynerd2513]

THE FEELS!! GIO YOU'RE SOOOOO GOOOOD!!

[@justamisunderstoodkidnamed9928]

Raven Joyner I am going to do this year since it is my last that I can be back cause this my last year at this school. I hope that I can do this with trying to chicken out of singing in front of my whole school and their parents. I will make my friends force me to tell the teachers that I want to sing this song. Then perform it.

[@AnaClara-dx4fj]

How did it go??​@@justamisunderstoodkidnamed9928

[@angelam5212]
