[Instrumental Intro (clean guitar drenched in chorus and reverb, feedback hum fades in, drums enter slow and deliberate with gritty bass tone)]

[Verse 1 (raspy vocal, restrained but tense)]
You sang the hurt the world ignored
Each note a wound you never cured
You burned so bright, you cracked the frame
And left the truth without a name

[Pre-Chorus (guitar distortion rises, drums tighten, bass slides up)]
You tore the silence into flame
And lit the dark with your own name

[Chorus (full band erupts—distorted guitars, heavy drums, layered harmonies, voice strained but melodic)]
You screamed the pain that we all disguise
Turned every loss to a lullaby
You wore your soul like a scarlet chord
The sound of peace we can’t afford
The echo rings though the noise decays
The fire you lit still lights our days

[Verse 2 (guitars pull back to clean tone, vocal soft but aching)]
You wrote in blood, you sang in rain
Each lyric bled from love and pain
You found the art inside the ache
Then left the world for your own sake

[Pre-Chorus (distortion creeps in, drums pulse harder)]
You tore the silence into flame
And lit the dark with your own name

[Chorus (louder, emotional—drums crash, feedback builds)]
You screamed the pain that we all disguise
Turned every loss to a lullaby
You wore your soul like a scarlet chord
The sound of peace we can’t afford
The echo rings though the noise decays
The fire you lit still lights our days

[Bridge (tempo slows, bass isolated, guitar feedback hums; whispered spoken line)]
You taught the broken not to bend
That beauty lives where pain won’t end

[Instrumental (gritty guitar solo—melodic but dissonant, slow drum fill fades into low drone)]

[Final Chorus (anthemic, layered harmonies, guitars wide, vocal raw and cracking)]
You screamed the pain that we all disguise
Turned every loss to a lullaby
You wore your soul like a scarlet chord
The sound of peace we can’t afford
The echo rings though the noise decays
The fire you lit still lights our days

[Outro (distorted guitar feedback fades into silence; final whispered line: “and the quiet never ends…”)]
