(Tempo: 160 BPM | Tuning: Drop A#) (Intro) (Feedback screeching. High, dissonant guitar leads over a slow, punishing rhythmic chug. The atmosphere is suffocating.) (Verse 1: The First Pillar) (Mid-range rasping screams) The foundation cracked when the Mother fell! The first tolling of the funeral bell! You were the warmth, the origin of light, Extinguished by the coming of the night! I watched the hearth go cold, the fire turn to grey, The first piece of my soul was torn away! (Pre-Chorus) (Music speeds up; technical riffing) The calendar is bleeding! The clock is a blade! Counting the debt that can never be paid! (Chorus) (Soaring, melodic vocals with a desperate edge) Burn the sky, let the heavens descend! I’m screaming at a god who refused to defend! Brother, my shadow, you were next in the line, A fracture in the branch of a dying vine! Wife of my youth, the final breath to flee, In less than three years, there’s nothing left of me! (Scream) THE TRINITY OF LOSS! (Verse 2: The Final Blow) (Guttural lows | Rapid-fire delivery) Three winters of ash! Two graves in the dirt! Then the third one came to crown the hurt! I held your hand, my Wife, my heart, my life, Cut down by the edge of the reaper’s knife! From the womb, to the blood, to the wedding vow, The ground is the only thing that holds me now! (Bridge) (Music drops to a ghostly, clean guitar melody) The Great Oak is hollowed out. First the Root (Mother) withered in the frost, Then the Branch (Brother) snapped, forever lost. Finally, the Bloom (Wife) fell to the floor... One thousand days of opening the door to death! (Screaming) THERE IS NO SHADE LEFT FOR ME! (Music drops to a haunting, clean guitar melody. Heavy reverb.) (Whispered/Spoken) 20... 21... 22... The years are markers on a trail of bones. (Building intensity) First the root. Then the branch. Then the flower. (Screaming) TOTAL COLLAPSE! (Breakdown) (Complete silence for one second) (Callout: "GOD, FINISH THE JOB!") (Bass drop. Crushing, slow-motion breakdown. Each hit feels like a physical blow.) THE SUCCESSION OF AGONY! ONE BY ONE! GONE! GONE! GONE! I AM THE LAST ONE STANDING IN THE RAIN! (Outro) (A mournful, melodic guitar solo fades into the sound of wind and a distant, single bell toll.) (Fading scream) WHY AM I STILL HERE?
