08.The fall of two great houses

V5.5

[Choir Intro / Somber Orchestral Swell] Shadows descend on the stones of the crypt The poison is drained from the trembling lip A dagger strikes deep in the heart of the pure A tragic conclusion, a sorrowful cure ​[Heavy Guitars and Double Bass Drums Kick In] Look upon the ruin of a fractured estate! Blood has spilled and words said too late Two houses defeated by an ancient shared hate The venom, the steel, the final embrace A cold, stony tomb is their resting place ​[Chorus - Symphonic Metal Anthem] No sun will arise on Verona today! Darkness has set, the heavens turn grey For two children died, a terrible toll Breaking the hate that corrupted the soul Spare us your sorrow, don't speak of regret The eternal night has fallen on the house of Montague and Capulet! ​[Verse 2 - Driving, Aggressive Riff] Look at the altar of pride you have built Drowning your bloodline in rivers of guilt The venomous whispers, the clashes of steel Now stare at the corpses, now see how it feels! Cry, you crazed parents, it's all too late These are the bitter fruits of your destructive hate! ​[Bridge - Operatic Vocals layered over Blast Beats] A plague on both your houses! A plague on the pride! For the sins of the fathers, The innocents died! ​[Guitar Solo - Fast, Melodic, Mournful] ​[Chorus - Full Choir and Heavy Instrumentation] No sun will arise on Verona today! Darkness has set, the heavens turn grey For two children died, a terrible toll Breaking the hate that corrupted the soul Spare us your sorrow, don't speak of regret The eternal night has fallen on the house of Montague and Capulet! ​[Outro - Heavy Riffs fading into a Solo Cello] Blood has spilled... Words said too late... Two houses defeated... By an ancient shared hate. [A single church bell tolls] Eternal night.
