"Chaos" is the final boss theme of Dissidia Final Fantasy, as well as the theme of the main antagonist, Chaos. It was composed by Takeharu Ishimoto and was arranged and performed by Your Favorite Enemies, with lyrics written by Alex Foster, the band's vocalist. This song returns in Dissidia 012 Final Fantasy as the theme of Chaos.

In the game, the theme is split into three different parts for the battle with Chaos, and each of the three portions of the track loop during the player's three battles with him. The pieces of the song are called "DFF - Chaos: Last Battle", with a number suffix 1, 2, or 3 afterward to denote the portion of the song. When chosen for a fight, only that specific piece of the track is heard, looping as during the battle with Chaos. In both Dissidia and Dissidia 012, the player must defeat Chaos before the tracks can be selected.

"Chaos - Last Battle 1 -" is the 22nd track of disc 2 on the Dissidia Final Fantasy Original Soundtrack.

Lyrics[]

No official lyrics for "Chaos" were released. However, it shares lyrics with both "Cosmos" and "The Messenger".

First portion (0:00 to 1:43)[]

The Messenger is standing at the gate
Ready to let go, ready for the crush
Too late for whispers, too late for the blush
The past is Mercy when the future's glow
Kneeling journey dressed in a cloak of shadows
The hunting's grim for the innocent eyes
Communion's prey is a cup of sorrows
But faith is colours for the humbling cries

Second portion (1:44 to 3:27)[]

The Pilgrims are gathering and the marching band, the marching band's howling
Compassion is the flag a righteous man, a righteous man will hold
The Pilgrims are gathering and the marching band, the marching band's howling
Compassion is the flag a righteous man, a righteous man will hold

Third portion (3:28 to 5:41)[]

The Spirit is over town, waiting for me to hit the floor
Blooming white sky for the voice of one calling tonight
Tonight fate is the red crown, the red crown around your door
Time is scattering the seeds of the mourning daylight

Trivia[]

  • In Dissidia, during Time Attack against Chaos, the battle track will be "DFF - Chaos: Last Battle 1" during all three phases of the fight, rather than the second and third phases having their respective segments of the track.
