Fading Voices

[Verse 1] [Deep thrash vocals] Darkness stretched across the stone, Carved with names I used to know. Voices ride the autumn wind, Calling me to walk again. [Pre-Chorus] [Anger building] Oh, the voices haunt my name, A voice so soft, yet laced with pain. Fading voices in the rain, But I can't bring you back again… [Chorus] [Screaming Vocals] Cry to the gods, but no one's there, The silence within like a nightmare The stars in the sky, the moon it fades, Left here alone within my hate [Symphonic section with orchestral swells, violins weaving around soaring guitar harmonies.] [Verse 2] Marble cold beneath my hands, A monument to the love we planned. All the words we left unsaid, Now lie with you among the dead. [Pre-Chorus] [Anger building] Oh, the voices haunt my name, A voice so soft, yet laced with pain. Fading voices in the rain, But I can't bring you back again… [Chorus] [Screaming Vocals] Cry to the gods, but no one's there, The silence within like a nightmare The stars in the sky, the moon it fades, Left here alone within my "Time won't heal, nor erase the past, A bond so deep, too strong to last. If you can hear me through the pain Know I'll see your face again [Music builds into a climactic instrumental explosion, featuring sweeping strings, crushing riffs, and thunderous drums.] [Final Chorus] [Key change, vocals Anger turning to hate] Cry to the gods, but no one's there, The silence within like a nightmare The stars in the sky, the moon it fades, Left here alone within my hate So as I scream into the sky I hope that one day soon I'll die Then I will no longer weep Beside my love as we both sleep [Outro fades with piano and strings, as a lone guitar plays a sorrowful melody into silence.]
