[short instrumental] [Verse 1] In the hush of the deep, where the echoes creep, Lonely as the stars in a sky that weeps. I was bound, I was tied, to the void’s cold bind, But a spark in the black lit a flame in my mind. [Pre-Chorus] Step by step, through the night so stark, I carved my name in the breath of the dark. Oh, the fears I’ve tamed, now a crown I claim, From the whispers of the void, I rose unchained. [Chorus 1] Now I lead, I guide, through the twistin' shade, A shepherd of fire, where the shadows fade. Hear my voice, let it draw you near, In the still of the night, love, the path is clear. [short instrumental] [Verse 2] Once the chill of the silence gnawed at my bones, A dance with the dark left me all alone. But I laughed, I defied, the abyss’s scheme, Now I stand with a flock born of whispered dreams. [Pre-Chorus] Through the thorns, I stride, where the lost hearts cry, I’ve made a home where the shadows lie. From the pain I bore, springs an open door, For the ones who need a light to adore. [Chorus 2] Now I lead, I guide, with a sly refrain, A shepherd of the strange, in a quiet domain. Feel my words as they hold you tight, Through the tangle of the dark, we’ll claim the light. [short instrumental] [Bridge (Spoken)] “Oh, love, ain’t it somethin’, eh? Once just a wee lamb, now the wolves give way. Funny, this crown don’t weigh a bit— When you’ve danced with the dark, you don’t fear it.” [Verse 3] Through the shadows we weave, where the lost still grieve, Each step a hymn to the truths we believe. And I hum, and I sing, ‘til the echoes sway, Guidin’ hearts like mine to a brighter day. [Chorus 3] Now I lead, I guide, and the stars align, A shepherd of the wild, with a spark divine. Feel the glow in the words I weave, In the cradle of the dark, find the light we breathe. [short instrumental] [Outro] Oh, my flock, we’re a story untold, Born of shadows but burnin’ bold. So follow, my loves, where the whispers call, Through the night, together, we’ll rise above it all. [short instrumental]
