Verse 1 Midnight whispers in the air Velvet shadows everywhere A loaded glance, a shaken hand Secrets slipping through the plan Champagne burns, a crimson kiss Danger tastes a lot like this Every step, a thin red line Between your heart and mine Pre-Chorus I’ve been running from the truth But tonight, it’s breaking loose CHORUS When the night falls I rise, I stand tall I feel alive Right before the fall Let the world burn I’ve paid my dues I was born for the fire I’ve got nothing to lose Verse 2 Silk and smoke inside your eyes Every lie is well-disguised I hear the click, the chamber turns Lessons learned, bridges burned Fate is calling, loud and clear I don’t bow down to fear If this is where my story ends I’ll face it like a friend Pre-Chorus I’ve danced with doubt, I’ve crossed the line Now the truth is mine CHORUS (bigger) When the night falls I rise, I stand tall I feel alive Right before the fall Let the world burn I’ve paid my dues I was born for the fire I’ve got nothing to lose Bridge (orchestral break – very Bond) (Strings rise, drums hit slow and deep) Whispered: Watch me… FINAL CHORUS (huge, cinematic) When the night falls Hear my call I won’t run I won’t crawl Let the sky shake Let it bruise I was born for the fire I’ve got nothing to lose Outro (soft, smoky) Lights fade Curtain call I’m still standing After all…
