'''The End''' is a song performed in ''[[Drawn to Life]]'' before the [[Drawn to Life Credits|credits]]. It is sung from [[Mari]] and [[Jowee]]'s points of view concerning their supposed separation at the end of the game. It was written by [[Drawn to Life Credits|David J. Franco]], and performed by himself and [[Drawn to Life Credits|Hayley Chipman]]. 

=={{Icon|Book}} Story==
After [[Wilfre]] is defeated and the [[Book of Life]] is completely restored, Jowee decides to go on an adventure with [[Pirate Beard]] and [[Indee]], while [[Mari]] decides to stay in [[Rapoville]] and be the best [[Mayor (Position)|mayor]] she can be. However, the two of them reminisce on their lives up to that point, and Jowee decides to stay with Mari instead.

<pre>
Mari: You brought rain and shine into my life
      I know you got to leave but I'm not surprised
      What's the use? Any way I lose, and there's nothing I can do
      Wanna know the truth? (Jowee: Yeah I do)
      I'm already missing you

Jowee: And is this really worth saving if this can't work anymore?

Mari: And I can see you don't believe, so you'll pack up and leave
      I can't change it. This is just the way it is
      What if I revise his words deep into my soul?

Jowee: What if I see her smile, would it make me crave for more?

Mari: What if I heard his voice and it gave me no other choice than to pray?

Both: From day to day I wonder

Mari: I'm not unsure, not quite certain though

Both: Where these problems came from (Jowee: Came from)

Mari: I'm not unsure, not quite certain though
      Why I'm feeling so drawn (to you)

Jowee: Just because it always was and it will (Both: always be this way)
       It works because all my love makes for a (Both: shining, shining day)

Both: It begins to rain, you feel the change

Jowee: I start to wonder if I'm (Both: ever gonna see you again)
       Then she tells me (Both: this is not the end)
       Drawn to the smile on your face
       But these are my dreams, and this is your place

Mari: If that's what you want, it's not what I need
      I'm high and dry, and you're at sea
      Listen please (Jowee: I'm listening)
      You color every breath I breathe

      'Cause if everything changes, will this work anymore?

Jowee: And I can see you don't believe as I'm ready to leave
       We can't change this.
       
Mari: No, can we save this?

Jowee: What if I told you the stars, he drew them only for you?

Mari: What if I can't dream 'cause I'm dreaming of you?

Jowee: What have I got to lose (Both: if I never ever reach the end of you?)
       I guess we'll find out soon

Mari: I'm not unsure, not quite certain though

Both: Where these problems came from (Jowee: came from)

Mari: I'm not unsure, not quite certain though

Both: Why I'm feeling so drawn

Mari: To a life with you
      Oh oh oh

Jowee: Drawn to you

       Just because it always was and it will always be this way
       
Both: It works because all my love makes for a shining shining day
      It begins to rain, you feel the change

Jowee: I start to wonder if I'm (Both: ever gonna see you again)

Mari: Then he tells me this is not the end (Ah)
