Dark, cinematic rock-opera ballad with gothic orchestration, Deep pipe organ intro layered with dramatic string sections (violins, cellos) and rolling timpani drums, Haunting male and female vocal harmonies, echoing choirs in the background, Slow-to-mid tempo with dynamic crescendos, shifting between soft, mysterious verses and powerful, soaring choruses, Add subtle electric guitar swells for a modern edge, Atmosphere should feel mysterious, romantic, and ominous, like a moonlit opera stage with shadows and flickering candlelight

Intense, theatrical rock-opera finale with massive orchestral hits and pounding rock rhythm, Fast, driving tempo with aggressive electric guitar riffs layered under powerful strings, timpani, and brass stabs, Add dramatic choir accents in Latin for a gothic, apocalyptic feel, Verses feature tense, rhythmic strings and muted drums, building toward explosive choruses with full orchestral and rock instrumentation, Include dynamic breakdowns with chanting choir and cinematic percussion before the final, climactic chorus, Mood should feel like the last scene of a dark opera — fiery, defiant, and larger than life, ending in a dramatic, echoing fade
