Dun Dark Sun [DOMS ACT: 3 Song: 4]

[INTRO — INSTRUMENTAL ONLY] [REST — 1 beat] [VERSE 1 — VOICE B SOLO (Masiashi) — MALE BARITONE (RP) — range G2–E4 — NO HARMONY — NO DOUBLING] Who waits here? With no torch to see by? You who bides in shackles, I approach, That I can glimpse you, worry not. Take your time, eyes forget the light in linger dark, I'll wait, as adapts, adjusts... [REST — INSTRUMENTAL ONLY — 1 bar] [VERSE 2 — VOICE A SOLO (Ushar’s Ancestor) — MALE BASS (RP) — stentorian/raspy — range E2–B2 — NO HARMONY — NO DOUBLING] First I am, in all things! For rising, brings envy sun its blush, what so-calls dawn, Sussurs and Seers, tread well around, what they have no answer to, My soul soars to heights unbound, even as cold fetters dare my flesh suppress, Price of misthink, that failed anticipate, a good test, my mistake, Still I endure, will eat the dark as does the sun, Will not dissolve to rot, won't run, nor adopt their errer blaspheme, My roots too deep, and stock too strong. Test master will yet deem me worthy... [REST — INSTRUMENTAL ONLY — 1 bar] [BRIDGE — VOICE B SOLO (Masiashi) — MALE BARITONE (RP) — clear/warm — NO HARMONY — NO DOUBLING] A powerful voice, that conjures familiar memory, of one above. Upstanding and high rise, crest clasp, duty-bear, They too unshurking, Boethiah-sworn. By what twist of fate wind path, wound you down here? From such height as you say? To deny still seems sure shatter? [REST — INSTRUMENTAL ONLY — 1 bar] [VERSE 3 — VOICE A SOLO (Ushar’s Ancestor) — MALE BASS (RP) — [SPOKEN-SONG: low pitch, strict recitative] — NO HARMONY — NO DOUBLING] You miss it still, needs proving? Needs know distance? From what height? Falls 'I' such arrives here, midst enclosure's wall, Gaze down and see the ruin, marks out high star's fall what upon gazing into becomes the knowing, feel your pulse quicken, pupils bloom so behold impossible dark dun sun, obscured still beneath so many seems-weak strings and means-not phrases, Who excelled so well, over those could not but bind to hold him, Here cell, to divide danger-thought hatch-farce know-thing, from coward minds, unfit to digest what is, [REST — INSTRUMENTAL ONLY — 1 bar] [VERSE 4 — VOICE B SOLO (Masiashi) — MALE BARITONE (RP) — bright/grounded — NO HARMONY — NO DOUBLING] Fond for riddles? Good to keep so sharp in space as dull? You speak of others? Those feasters above? Who even now entertain and occupy my sister of sorts? Ah, what's this?... Your eyes?...I see... [REST — INSTRUMENTAL ONLY — 1 bar] [VERSE 5 — VOICE A SOLO (Ushar’s Ancestor) — MALE BASS (RP) — [SPOKEN-SONG: low, deliberate] — NO HARMONY — NO DOUBLING] No-trick I'll answer to, who tempts me from the way, Good trick that you are, who keeps just from sight. The better for keeping centered, aligned to task. Boethiah's will yet grades me, and when worthy judges, Glory not, would-be captors close and clave, I return to others soon. You shall see... [REST — INSTRUMENTAL ONLY — 1 bar] [OUTRO — VOICE B SOLO (Masiashi) — MALE BARITONE (RP) — somber/clear — NO HARMONY — NO DOUBLING] My mistake wise one, perhaps there's still time... Sorry for my shyness, it is a sight to behold one bears their test so well, Boethiah finds you shortly as you by ald rite deserve it... [OUTRO — INSTRUMENTAL ONLY — ritualistic and uncanny; psychedelic oud and morin khuur fade in, then out]
