Harbor of Lost Souls

[Intro | quiet aftermath | soft female | piano, ocean waves | gentle | cinematic] The storm was gone... But silence remained... [Verse | quiet reflection | intimate female | piano, clean guitars | gentle | atmospheric] The waves had carried us ashore Where none had walked before A harbor wrapped in silver mist With ships that sailed no more Their lanterns burned without a flame Their sails were still and white As silent figures crossed the docks Like echoes dressed in light [Pre-Chorus | quiet wonder | airy harmonies | strings | rising | cinematic] No voices... Only whispers... No footsteps... Only tides... [Chorus | bittersweet reunion | soaring emotional female | orchestra, guitars | uplifting | cinematic] In the Harbor of Lost Souls Every memory remains Where the sea keeps every promise And remembers every name Though the world has left us behind Though the tide has carried on Love is never truly lost Though the ones we love are gone [Verse | reunion | melodic female | clean guitars, synths | steady | dream rock] There beside an ancient pier A lonely figure stood His crown was worn His face was kind As every king's should He looked upon us one by one As though we'd never part The ocean could not hide the peace That rested in his heart [Pre-Chorus | emotional realization | layered harmonies | strings | building | cinematic] No sorrow... No anger... Only peace... Only light... [Chorus | bittersweet reunion | soaring emotional female | orchestra, guitars | uplifting | cinematic] In the Harbor of Lost Souls Every memory remains Where the sea keeps every promise And remembers every name Though the world has left us behind Though the tide has carried on Love is never truly lost Though the ones we love are gone [Bridge | farewell | soft female | piano, choir | suspended | ethereal] "My faithful friends..." he whispered. "You have already given enough... Do not bring me back. The kingdom needs your courage... Not my return." [Breakdown | acceptance | piano, strings | restrained | emotional] The wind returned... The waves returned... The morning found the shore... [Final Chorus | hopeful farewell | soaring female, SATB choir | orchestra, guitars | emotional climax | cinematic] In the Harbor of Lost Souls Every memory remains Where the sea keeps every promise And remembers every name If you truly love your king You must let his spirit roam Some farewells become the light That will guide the living home [Outro | peaceful farewell | soft female | piano, waves | gentle | ocean ambience] When the morning found the shore... The harbor... Had become the sea...
