"The Cavalry of None (We Are The Storm)"
[Intro] [Soundscape: Distant thunder, a lonely guitar riff, wind blowing] [Spoken Word - Weary, cynical tone] (They told me resistance is useless.) (They told me to look away.) (But the horrors persist... so do I.) [Verse 1] [Vocal Style: Low, intimate, storytelling] I didn't ask for a sword or a shield I was just standing here in the middle of the field. The sane people ran when the sky turned black But I found a reason to not turn my back. The universe is cold, yeah, it doesn't care It's a chaotic mess, stripped completely bare. But if we're all puppets and they hold the strings... Then I’m cutting the line to see what it brings. [Pre-Chorus] [Music builds: Drums kick in, rhythm guitar intensifies] Fate whispers low: "You can't withstand the storm." But I’ve been out in the cold since the day I was born! I reject your reality! I substitute my own! I’m tired of the silence! I’m tired of the throne! [Chorus] [Energy: Anthemic, Explosive, Gang Vocals] We are the Cavalry! We are the Night! We see the darkness and turn on the light! We don’t fight for glory, we don’t fight for gold We fight for the stories that need to be told! If the world is burning, then let’s warm our hands And draw a new line in the shifting sands! (I am the Storm! I am the Storm!) [Section: Rapid Fire - "The David Wong Flow"] [Tempo: Fast, aggressive, spoken-sung] Heroes aren't born. Heroes are cornered. Life is unbalanced. Death is unordered. Monster in the floor. Kicking down the door. Don't wait for a sign. This is the line. Sanity is gone. Bring on the dawn. Tired of the fear? The Cavalry is here. [Verse 2] [Vocal Style: Gritty, determined] I have little shame and I have no pride Just a beast in the cellar that I keep inside. "Keep poking the bear and you'll pull back a nub" Welcome to the fight, welcome to the club. We’re the ones who hold on when we should let go We’re the glitch in the system, the wrench in the flow. We are all in this boat on a stormy sea And I owe you a loyalty you wouldn’t believe. [Bridge] [Atmosphere: Music drops to a heartbeat bassline] [Whispered] Find what you love... and let it kill you. [Screamed] FIND WHAT YOU LOVE AND LET IT KILL YOU! They want you to drown? Teach the demons to swim! They want you to lose? Tear them limb from limb! I’m not a hero! I’m just too tired to run! So I’ll stand in the dark until the job is done! [Guitar Solo - Melodic, soaring, triumphant] [Outro] [Music slows down, acoustic guitar fades back in] The road to hell is paved with good intent. But I’m okay with where the money was spent. The horrors persist. And so do we. Yeah... so do we. [Fade to Silence] [End]
