01.The tragedy begins
[Instrumental Intro: A haunting, distorted church organ builds into a thunderous electric guitar and a driving double-kick drum beat] (Spoken - Low, dramatic whisper) Verona. [Verse 1] (Lead Singer - Powerful, gritty tenor) Two ancient houses carved in stone and spite! A city drowning in the endless night! The Montagues! The Capulets! A dynasty of blood and cold regrets! They paint the cobblestones with crimson stains, While venom rushes through their noble veins! [Pre-Chorus] (Choir - Harmonized, soaring) So stay a while, oh faithful one! The violent tempest has begun! Listen to the scene, the shattered grace, The star-crossed lovers locked in death's embrace! [Chorus] (Lead Singer with Full Choir - Anthem-like, explosive) The curtain’s undone! Let the story begin! A beautiful poison, a magnificent sin! Born from the hatred, condemned from the start, A dagger of iron right through the heart! Romeo! Juliet! A heavy toll for an ancient debt! [Verse 2] (Lead singer - Fast, aggressive, rhythmic) Fathers and brothers with swords drawn high! Under the heavy, unforgiving sky! No mercy given, no quarters kept, While mothers mourned and the angels wept! They fed the fire with their pride and their name, And threw their children straight into the flame! [Pre-Chorus] (Choir - Haunting, ethereal) So stay a while, oh faithful one! Before the setting of the sun! Listen to the scene, the fatal kiss, The sudden drop into the black abyss! [Chorus] (Lead Singer with Full Choir - Massive, tragic) The curtain’s undone! Let the story begin! A beautiful poison, a magnificent sin! Born from the hatred, condemned from the start, A dagger of iron right through the heart! Romeo! Juliet! A heavy toll for an ancient debt! [Outro] (Lead Singer - Solo, slowing down over a solitary, brooding bassline) A heavy toll... A tragic fall... Welcome to Verona... May heaven save us all. [Instrumental Outro: A soaring guitar wails a final, sorrowful solo, abruptly cut off by the solitary strike of a heavy church bell]
