[Intro: Keyboard, Soft Guitar] A shadow walks where the sun won't shine, A life enslaved, no longer mine. The night is deep, the hunger calls, Yet freedom's dream still breaks these walls. [Verse 1: Slow Build] Once a soul of noble grace, Now a pawn in this cursed space. The blood that stains, the tears that fall, Echoes of the life I’ve lost to it all. [Pre-Chorus: Rising] But in the dark, I hear the cry, A voice within that won't let me die! [Chorus: Epic, Soaring] Astarion's lament, a heart torn apart, Bound by the night, but craving the start! Chains of blood, I will defy, To find my truth beneath the sky! [Keyboard Solo: Melodic, Haunting] [Verse 2: Intensifying] The faces haunt, the screams remain, A predator’s curse, a victim's pain. Yet deep inside, a spark endures, A glimmer of hope, my soul implores. [Pre-Chorus: Powerful] No chains of fate can bind me now, The light will guide, I'll make my vow! [Chorus: Full Band] Astarion's lament, a heart torn apart, Bound by the night, but craving the start! Chains of blood, I will defy, To find my truth beneath the sky! [Guitar Solo: Fierce and Emotional] [Bridge: Reflective] Oh gods, release this cursed hold, A life of shadow grows so cold. The taste of freedom, I will claim, To break this bond, to rise again! [Final Chorus: Triumphant] Astarion's lament, a heart torn apart, Bound by the night, but craving the start! Chains of blood, I will defy, To find my truth beneath the sky! [Outro: Keyboard, Fading Guitar] A shadow walks, yet light will rise, A soul reborn beneath the skies. [End]
