“Where Even Gods Cannot Follow”

[Intro – low, celestial hum unraveling into something fractured] (soft, stunned) I fell… …but not alone… [Verse 1 – slow, aching, like a god learning gravity for the first time] Heaven didn’t shatter when I left it behind, No thunder chased my name—no warning sign. Just silence like a blade drawn clean, A severed light where I had been. The sky grew distant… dim and small, No choir wept to mark my fall. I thought the cost was mine to bear— Until I saw you falling there… [Pre-Chorus – urgency rising, wings cutting through air] Your silhouette in broken light, A dying star against the night— I reached through ruin, flame, and fear… You were so close— You were right here— [Chorus – powerful, desperate, shattering restraint] UMBRA—! I called your name through burning air, Through dying halos, stripped despair! My wings tore wide the world below, But you were slipping through the glow! I almost had you in my hands— Fate cracked apart my last command— You fell beyond where I could see… Into a place that’s not for me… [Verse 2 – quieter, haunted, anger simmering beneath control] The earth received me like a grave, No throne, no crown—just dust and flame. The wind still echoes with your fall, A ghost that answers every call. I searched the skies—no trace, no scar, No sign of where your fragments are. But something whispers in between— A fractured veil… a world unseen… [Pre-Chorus – realization, dread unfolding] A realm where memory twists and bends, Where sleeping souls and silence blend… I felt it close… I felt you there— But I could not cross that nightmare… [Chorus – more controlled, but heavier, edged with fury] UMBRA—! I reached the edge of what is real, Where even I am forced to kneel. No fire, no wrath, no sovereign claim Could breach that softly weeping plane. You slipped between the ticking seams, A prisoner of forsaken dreams… And I, who once defied the throne… Stand in a world I cannot own. [Bridge – spoken, cold, precise, the birth of resolve] So this is the boundary… Not heaven… not hell… But something… quieter. A place where even gods are unwelcome. (soft, dangerous) Then I will not remain a god. [Instrumental – heartbeat rhythm, ticking like a clock beginning to matter] [Final Chorus – rising, resolute, no longer pleading—promising] UMBRA— No realm will keep you out of reach, No law remain I cannot breach! If dreams deny what I demand, Then I will break them with my hand! Let time unravel, fate distort, Let every law of worlds fall short— I’ll tear the veil, I’ll rewrite streams— And drag you back from shattered dreams! [Outro – quiet, intimate, almost tender… but unbreakable] Wait for me… … Even if I must learn to sleep… Just to find you.
