Eternal Crucible (Vicious cover)

[Verse 1] I walk through flames that never sleep, A world in ruin, secrets buried deep. Every step a trial, every breath a fight, I am the whisper that haunts the night. [Pre-Chorus] Hope flickers low, then fades to gray, Despair flows like rivers in endless sway. [Chorus – Massive Reverb | Layered Vocals] In the eternal crucible I rise, Forged in fire beneath bleeding skies. Between the light and the consuming void, A soul unbroken, yet destroyed. [Verse 2] Reflections torn across the void, Battles carried, nothing to avoid. Time drags slow, yet the fire remains, A path of torment running through my veins. [Pre-Chorus 2] Flickering hope, relentless despair, I breathe the fire, I taste the air. [Chorus 2 – Massive Reverb | Layered Vocals] In the eternal crucible I rise, Forged in fire beneath bleeding skies. Hope and despair twist through my veins, I walk the flames, I bear the chains. [Bridge – Haunting, Ritualistic, whisper layers] I reach for mercy, it drifts away, I reach for solace, night swallows day. Still I march, still I bleed, The crucible feeds on what I need. [Breakdown – Aggressive] Burn… Rise… Repeat… The flames consume, the trials repeat. [Final Chorus – Choir | Violin Rising] In the eternal crucible I rise, Forged in fire beneath bleeding skies. Between the light and the consuming void, A soul unbroken, yet destroyed. [Outro – Cinematic] Strings linger, voices wane, A single note drifts across the flame. Strings linger, voices wane, A single note drifts across the flame.
