Dark Orchestra, Dark Choir, Macabre, Dark Magic, spiritual, Female lead singer, madness, anger, unhinged, Broadway, Disney, Theatrical

[Verse 1]
The clown stands tall, his eyes are knives,
He sneers, “You’ve wasted countless lives.
You write of hope, but all they see
Is ruin born from you and me.”

My tears run hot across my face,
Embers drip down and sear the place.
My knuckles blaze; the clown now quakes—
Each taunt a wound I can’t unmake.

[pre-chorus]
I lose control
the bell now tolls

[Chorus: strong, powerful, anger, commanding]
I hush your laugh and take your lungs,
You walk a path of songs unsung.
Feel all the pain of what you stole;
There is no rain to cleanse your soul.

[Verse 2]
I speak at last, voice low, made clear:
“You’ll bear the weight of every fear.
The broken hearts, the shattered years,
The silent screams, the vanished tears.

I twist the ribs that will not break,
Reshape your flesh for vengeance’s sake.
Your heart still beats, your mind still burns,
While justice twists and justice turns.

This is the gift, the curse I bring—
To know the ache of everything.
The cries you mocked, the lives you slew,
Will haunt you now through and through.”

[pre-chorus]
I know just how
I hate you now

[Chorus: strong, powerful, anger, commanding]
I hush your laugh and take your lungs,
You walk a path of songs unsung.
Feel all the pain of what you stole;
There is no rain to cleanse your soul.

[Bridge]
Days go by in a hollow room—
No laughter left, no painted plume.
I come again, pen light command,
A shining glow, a healer’s hand.

I check your eyes; nail beds are pressed,
A patient bound in brokenness.
“I can’t leave you in endless night—
You’re necessary for my fight.

I’ll pull away the flood of screams,
Return your breath, but not your dreams.
Keep the fear, the subtle stain—
A ghost of loss you can’t explain.”

[Final Chorus: soft, gentle, build up]
I hushed your laugh and took your lungs,
You walked a path of songs unsung.
Felt all the pain of what you stole;
There is no rain to cleanse your soul
but now I see, it cannot be
I need you just like you need me!

[Music comes in strong, commanding]
I restore your laugh—and your lungs,
But leave you scarred by songs unsung.
Feel the weight of what you know,
There is no light to cleanse your soul.
