«Necromancer — Life on the Border of Light and Darkness»

V6-MINI

[Intro — war horns over frame drum; tagelharpa riff; distant choir; then galloping guitars crash in]
[Verse 1 — He, dark gravelly baritone]
I was forged where the daylight dies,
Beneath a sky of iron and ice.
I keep the candles, I keep the names,
I guard the sleep of the frozen flames.
[Verse 2 — She, ethereal soaring soprano]
I was born where the night gives way
To the first gold arrow of the day.
I melt the frost from the widow's glass,
I wake the seeds in the sleeping grass.
[Pre-Chorus — duet interweaving, drums building]
(He) You call my kingdom the end of all…
(She) You call my morning too bright to fall…
(Both) But where your night meets my morning gold —
There the oldest story is told!
[Chorus — epic unison + symphonic choir, galloping]
On the border of light and darkness,
Where the dusk and the dawn entwine,
Life is born on the seam of the world —
And the seam is yours, and the seam is mine!
Neither day alone, nor night alone,
Can raise a heart from the stone —
Life lives only where both have gone:
On the border of light and darkness!
(Choir) On the border! On the border!
[Verse 3 — He]
I met her once at the edge of eve
With a lantern of dawn in her sleeve.
She did not fear my crown of ash,
She touched my hand — and I forgot my task.
[Verse 4 — She]
I met him once at the break of morn,
Where the night was tired and torn.
He did not reach for my golden thread,
He only bowed — like the night instead.
[Chorus]
[Bridge — folk break: tagelharpa, frame drum, wooden flute; voices almost a cappella]
(She, soft) Light alone burns the field to sand…
(He, low) Dark alone freezes the seed in hand…
(Both, building with drums) But touch your fire to my frost —
And see what neither has lost!
[Explosion + key change]
[Guitar solo — dual harmony guitars, epic and melodic, horns answering]
[Final Chorus — key change, maximum: choir, both voices, she soars above him]
On the border of light and darkness,
Where the dusk and the dawn entwine,
Life is born on the seam of the world —
And the seam is yours, and the seam is mine!
Neither day alone, nor night alone,
Can raise a heart from the stone —
Life lives only where both have gone:
On the border of light and darkness!
[Outro — instruments fade; two voices almost a cappella over one drum]
(He) I keep the night…
(She) I keep the day…
(Both) And between them — life… will stay.
[One war horn, one drum, silence]
