[Intro | Gentle Instrumental] (Slow, haunting acoustic guitar fingerpicking and bowed upright bass introduce the main minor key theme. The rhythm is established by light, distant percussion.) [Verse 1 | Female British Vocal: Clear, Narrative, Intimate, Cold Tone] Dark as the forest and deep as the sea Is all I can say when you’re talking to me I said “I’m lost” You said “I’m free” And it is true: We are not the same. [Verse 2 | Female British Vocal: Building Intensity, Reflective, Haunting Whisper] Shining a light on the walls of my cave Look for the future I never would save Nowhere to go, So I wait to be saved. And it is true: We are not afraid. [Chorus | Female British Vocal: Strong, Layered, Questioning, Resonant Echo] Where is the savior of women? Why should we follow the men? How can this old dog learn a new trick? And it is true: We are not waiting for them. [Verse 3 | Female British Vocal: Narrative, Intimate, Steady Resolve] The shadows lengthen, the water runs cold This story's the same, it's a hundred years old You took my secrets, you sold what you stole And it is true: We are not going back. [Chorus | Female British Vocal: Strong, Layered, Questioning, Resonant Echo] Where is the savior of women? Why should we follow the men? How can this old dog learn a new trick? And it is true: We are not waiting for them. [Outro / Coda | Female British Vocal: Slow, Measured, Fading Reflection, Breathless Fade] (Instrumentation strips down to only guitar/bass for the first lines, then fades slowly.) Dark as the forest and deep as the sea It is all I can say when you’re talking to me. I said, “I’m lost” You said, “I’m free.” And it is true: We are not. (Music sustains and fades out slowly.)
