Shadow Dweller -NOVA-EMBER
[Intro – Instrumental: Cinematic + Guitar Solo]!!! (ambient sounds) wind howls, crows in distance, echoing footsteps Nova-ember Persistence!!! [Verse 1 – Niamh] (low, ominous tone) I walked through ruins of forgotten prayers... Shadows stretched like whispers in the cold air. Bloody footprints on a fractured stone... I face the dark — but never alone. [Verse 2 –] You chase the truth but it hides in the flame, I laugh with ghosts while you curse their names. Born in ash and bred to bite, We don’t run — we own the night. [Pre-Chorus – Both, layered] Burn it down or light the way, Either path — we won’t obey. Eyes wide shut, but we still see... What the light don’t show is what sets us free! [Chorus – Niamh (lead), Fennec (echo), gang vocals layered] Shadows in the night—won’t run, won’t break! (Fennec echo: “Won’t run, won’t break!”) Hear us howl when the stars awake! (Fennec echo: “Stars awake!”) Screaming wild with the fire inside— We were forged to rise, In shadows… in the niiiight! [Verse 3 – Niamh & Fennec (back and forth, aggressive delivery)] Niamh: They chained our dreams to rusted thrones— Fennec: But I spit on kings and carve my own. Niamh: They called us lost, they called us mad— Fennec: That’s the only fun we’ve ever had. [Bridge – Screamed/Yelled Build Up with Guitar Break] (Niamh & Fennec chanting over wild guitar licks) We don’t kneel—NO! We don’t bow—NO! We wear the storm like a sacred crown! We don’t fade—NO! We don’t hide—NO! We are the fury of the blackened sky! [Final Chorus – Full Band Explosion] Niamh (powerfully): Shadows in the night—can’t cage this flame! Fennec (gritty echo): (Can’t cage this flame!) We’re the thunder they’ll never tame! [Both harmonized verse] Born to howl with the fire inside— Nova-Ember won’t be denied! In shadows… in the NIIIGHT! (guitar solo outro screeches into silence) [Outro – Whispered Irish line by Niamh over ambient wind] NOVAA-EMBEEEER IN THE SHADOWS!!!
