Who Are You Now

[Intro – ominous, deep baritone, gritty timbre, sparse piano, low contour] WHO ARE YOU NOW? CARVE THAT QUESTION IN YOUR FLESH ASKING HOW SCREAM THAT QUESTION AT YOURSELF ASKING WHO WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE WHEN YOU’RE DEVOURING YOUR TRUE SELF YOURSELF, YOUR HELL WHO WE REALLY ARE WON'T BE SEEN BY THOSE WHO NEVER DARE TO GAZE BEYOND THE VEIL [Build – beat drops in] WHO ARE YOU NOW? (CARVE THAT QUESTION IN YOUR FLESH) ASKING HOW (SCREAM THAT QUESTION AT YOURSELF) ASKING WHO (WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE?) DEVOURING YOUR TRUE SELF (YOURSELF) Some spirits are shattered beyond repair Others are so fragile They can barely crawl through this world alone They must be fiercely sheltered Others burn so brightly They must be held and guided TO PROTECT AND NURTURE THEM TO PROTECT AND NURTURE… IN BLOOD [Hook – first lift] AS I DESCEND TO FIND MYSELF I’LL PROTECT AND NURTURE MY SPIRIT FROM THOSE WHO WOULD TEAR IT APART WHETHER THEY BE FAMILY FRIEND FOE OR STRANGER [Chorus – first hit] FIERCELY DEFEND YOUR SPIRIT NURTURE YOUR SOUL IN FLAME I WILL NEVER LEAVE YOU FIERCELY DEFEND YOUR SPIRIT NURTURE YOUR SOUL IN FLAME I WILL NEVER LEAVE YOU [Chant – call & response] I WON'T GIVE IN (I WON’T GIVE IN) I’LL NEVER SURRENDER (I’LL NEVER SURRENDER) I WON'T GIVE IN I’LL NEVER SURRENDER [Pre-Chorus – tension rises] WHO ARE YOU NOW? (CARVE THAT QUESTION IN YOUR FLESH) ASKING HOW (SCREAM THAT QUESTION AT YOURSELF) ASKING WHO (WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE?) WHEN YOU’RE DEVOURING YOUR TRUE SELF (YOURSELF) AS I DESCEND TO FIND MYSELF I’LL PROTECT AND NURTURE MY SPIRIT FROM THOSE WHO WOULD TEAR IT APART FIERCELY DEFEND YOUR SPIRIT NURTURE YOUR SOUL IN FLAME I WILL NEVER LEAVE YOU I WON'T GIVE IN I’LL NEVER SURRENDER I WON'T GIVE IN I’LL NEVER SURRENDER [Outro – beat cuts, whisper + distant chant] TO PROTECT AND NURTURE FIERCELY DEFEND YOUR SPIRIT TO PROTECT AND NURTURE YOUR BROKEN, BURNING SELF
