[Intro]
(Haunting strings)
(Low mallet-tom beat, 120 BPM)
(Ooh-oh, ooh-oh)

[Verse 1]
By the black fir line I was born,
Under a moon like a bitten coin.
One child sang in a tongue of glass,
One child laughed when the crows would join.

Mother laid two herbs on my tongue,
Salt for the saint, ash for the curse.
I grew in a house with split-stone walls,
Half a prayer, half a dirge.

[Pre-Chorus]
(Build-up)
(Drums intensifying)
When the cold came down, I felt her wings.
When the fire rose up, I heard him sing.

[Chorus]
[Symphonic Choir] (Helas, helas!)
One face of snow, one face of flame.
[Symphonic Choir] (Come closer, come closer!)
One mouth says mercy, one calls my name.
[Symphonic Choir] (Halcyon, hallowed!)
I walk the line, I wear both chains.
Angel in silk, demon in rain!

[Verse 2]
In the redwood keep by the graveyard gate,
They crowned me ash and they crowned me gold.
I kissed the icons with trembling lips,
Then bit the fruit that the night had sold.

She made my hands into lifted light,
Kept my knees soft when the world went hard.
He made my shadow a hunting hound,
Set my teeth on the edge of scars.

[Pre-Chorus]
(Build-up)
When the bells rang out, I bled white glass.
When the drums came near, I broke my mask.

[Bridge]
[Atmospheric Breakdown]
(Soft mallets, solo violin)
In the chapel ruin, in the wolf-hour smoke,
I saw my mirror split in three.
One side kneeling in a robe of dawn,
One side grinning from the yew-root tree.

(Rising tension)
And I asked, "Which one will carry me?"
The roof rang loud with raven cries.
She said, "Be the scar that heals the wound."
He said, "Be the fire that never dies!"

[Guitar Solo / Symphonic Climax]
(Epic orchestral rising, heavy tom-drums)

[Final Chorus]
[Symphonic Choir] (Helas, helas!)
One face of snow, one face of flame.
[Symphonic Choir] (Come closer, come closer!)
One mouth says mercy, one calls my name.
[Symphonic Choir] (Halcyon, hallowed!)
I walk the line, I wear both chains.
Angel in silk, demon in rain!

[Outro]
[Symphonic Choir] (Helas, helas!)
One face of dawn, one face of night.
[Symphonic Choir] (Come closer!)
One begs for peace, one bites at light.
If I am cursed, then curse me whole—
Two souls storming one body and bone!

[Epic Outro Climax]
(Symphonic hit)
[End]
