On the brink of the abyss

V6-MINI

[Use enharmonic synemmenon maqam saba mode with çıkıcı-İnici seyir for all harmonic elements. Bassline follows strictly by doubling lead instruments in perfect fourths.] [Male voice A: Christian, star wrestler - pleurnichard devastated spinto tenor with chest-dominant grit and throaty warmth and squillo, textured, gravelly low-mid register.] [Dynamics swell - full ensemble *including drums* joins immediately on beat 1] [Vorspiel starts with full intensity - 2 bars, full crescendo] [All vorspiels are the same copy/pasted from the opener, ghammaz section is the only one that changes the pattern.] [Vorspiel - 2 bars] [Verse 1, section A] The door closed in silence. The eyes close with violence, For whatever the eye does see Is what no more will be. Never-ever could it be. Never-ever again be. [Verse 1, section B] No one's there with me, Yet I still fight tears. Is there a bigger fool. So what if I drool? [Chorus] I will no longer fight. I will sob, I will cry My heart out. [Vorspiel - 2 bars] [Verse 2, section A] I read your letters, I listen your messages, I watch our interviews, I relive our fights. I convince myself you left For a long, long trip And will knock at the door Anytime now. [Verse 2, section B] The whole of the world Could be here with me And I'd still feel lonely, Resenting all of them For even existing. [Chorus] I no longer fight. I sob... I cry... My heart out. [Vorspiel - 2 bars] [Instrumental bridge - Ghammaz section with taqsim - 2 bars] [Ghammaz Section - non-lexical vocalizations] * 嗯嗯嗯嗯嗯嗯嗯嗯嗯... * 嗯嗯嗯嗯嗯嗯嗯嗯嗯... [Vorspiel - 2 bars] [Verse 3, section A] All it takes is a single instant To no longer walk the earth. Talking about it hurts. Remembering it hurts. What the heck... Even thinking about it hurts. [Verse 3, section B] I have no strength to talk, But I will always find the strength To remember you. You used to give me strength. So, how could I ever forget? [Last chorus, drum rolls building tension] [buildup] I am feeling numb from pain And here I am: I keep thinking about it All over again Until I'm all pain. [release] There is nothing to be fought For Anymore. I'll keep sobbing... I'll keep crying... Until I can no more. [start fade out, slow down] [Vorspiel - 2 bars, fadeout] * 嗯嗯嗯嗯嗯嗯嗯嗯嗯... * 嗯嗯嗯嗯嗯嗯嗯嗯嗯... [end]
