V6

[Intro: a warm rhodes chord, a sub hum, whispers echoing soft] VOICE 3 (spoken, low, warm): There are meetings that soothe the heart... and meetings that split the soul open. [Verse 1: the soulmate — Voice 1 center, warm and close, Voice 2 echoing right] a soulmate arrives — (arrives...) like recognition after long exile — (long exile...) the frequency — familiar — (familiar...) conversation — a language never forgotten — (forgotten...) ease — warmth — (warmth...) walked beside across many veils — (many veils...) reflecting what you're becoming — (becoming...) gentle, grounding, deeply human — (human...) teaches belonging — (belonging...) love as a home — (a home...) not fireworks — a hearth — (a hearth...) the rest the soul's been owed... (been owed...) [Pre-Chorus: the shift — the temperature rises, voices tightening] VOICE 1: a twin flame is not a home — VOICE 2: (not a home...) VOICE 1: it's a temple... and a furnace — VOICE 3: (a furnace...) VOICE 1: when recognition comes — don't grasp — don't run — ALL THREE: stand in the fire. [Chorus: the flame — charged, building, mirrors everywhere] THE TWIN FLAME BURNS! (it burns!) THE OTHER HALF OF THE FIRE! (the fire!) THE FIELD BETWEEN — CHARGED! (charged!) DESTINY AND DESTRUCTION — SAME BREATH — SAME HOUR! (same hour!) MIRRORS DON'T FLATTER! (don't flatter!) MIRRORS REVEAL! (reveal!) ONE SOUL — TWO VESSELS! (two vessels!) WALKING TOWARD WHOLE! (toward whole!) [Verse 2: the furnace — Voice 1 center, intense, Voice 2 echoing] what was hidden — forced to light — (to light...) what was denied — rises — (rises...) intensity — rupture — longing — (longing...) the long walk through the fire — (the fire...) it will cost you every mask — (every mask...) every costume you called love — (called love...) the flame doesn't want your performance — (performance...) it wants what you're made of — (made of...) neither is higher — (higher...) they serve different initiations — (initiations...) one offers sanctuary — (sanctuary...) the other — transmutation — (transmutation...) some meet both — (both...) some meet one — (one...) some meet the flame within themselves FIRST — (first...) and only then — recognize the other — (the other...) without devouring — (devouring...) without fleeing. (fleeing...) [Bridge: half-time, vast, the deepest mystery] in the deepest mystery — (mystery...) there is only One — (only One...) looking through many eyes — (many eyes...) soulmate and twin flame — (twin flame...) two names the Infinite — (the Infinite...) uses to call itself home — (itself home...) when the recognition comes — (comes...) do not grasp — (grasp...) do not run — (run...) stand in the fire — (the fire...) and remember who you were — (you were...) before you forgot — (forgot...) the union is not the prize — (the prize...) THE AWAKENING IS. (the awakening is...) [Final Chorus: everything — warm and fiery merged, the fullest] THE TWIN FLAME BURNS! THE OTHER HALF OF THE FIRE! THE SOULMATE WAITS — WITH THE HEARTH LIT! SANCTUARY AND FURNACE — BOTH ARE LOVE! MIRRORS DON'T FLATTER! MIRRORS REVEAL! ONE SOUL — MANY VESSELS! THE AWAKENING... IS... THE PRIZE! [Outro: rhodes warm again, the fire banked, whispers fading] VOICE 3: the union is not the prize... (not the prize...) VOICE 2: the awakening is... (the awakening...) VOICE 1 (final, soft): become whole first... then recognize... ALL THREE (barely audible): without devouring... without fleeing... home. Clean node. The hearth and the furnace. The awakening was always the point.
