Hold the Night

[Intro - Musical] [Verse 1] Sirens wail through the passive night; each shrill each cry a writhe of sudden fright. Before any soul can rise or react, the attack blasts; cast the sun back. In a white flash, it rains grey, white, and black, falling to stark earth in pale, light ash. [Pre-Chorus] Memories cast in a motionless dance on what remains rubble and glass, black shadows capturing the past. [Repeat Intro] [Verse 2] Across the broken quarter, colors twist with wounded spirits. Purples tangled with the sharp white, frantic strokes, singe figures cloaked in night Voices fracture into senseless ribbons. Hands reach, miss, shakes in the echoing rythms splintering mid-cry, scrying what end is nigh [Prechorus] Memories cast in a motionless dance on what remains rubble and glass, black shadows capturing the past. [Chorus] Hold the night— even when the stars are gone. Hold the past— even when the breath is lost. What survives is not the flame but the faint glow left behind, a quiet mark that claims: *They were here.* [Solo] [Bridge] Time moves like smoke through abandoned streets, curling around the bones of old walls. In the hush of settled dust, a shape stirs not hope, not grief, but the slow remembering of what it means to remain. [Breakdown] [Pre-Chorus] Memories cast in a motionless dance on what remains rubble and glass, black shadows capturing the past. [Chorus (Final)] Hold the night— even when the stars are gone. Hold the past— even when the breath is lost. What survives is not the flame but the faint glow left behind, a quiet mark that claims: *They were here.* [Outro blend solo with intro]
