[INTRO – Instrumental Slow, ominous arpeggios Faint echoing harmonics] [VERSE 1] She hums when the night gets heavy She drinks when I bleed or sweat Every note feels borrowed time But I ain’t paid her yet [PRE-CHORUS] They say tools don’t choose their hands But this one learned my name Every time I swear I’m done with her She whispers “play again” [CHORUS] So play me loud, don’t ask me why Some doors open when others fail If this world wants my echo carved in stone I’ll give it the Ebony Grail [VERSE 2] I don’t remember making vows I don’t remember the cost But every dream smells like cold iron And a crown I never sought [CHORUS] So play me loud, don’t ask me why Let the heavens turn pale If freedom’s just another word for debt Then drink deep, Ebony Grail [INSTRUMENTAL SOLO Extended solo Cold, precise, unnaturally perfect] [BRIDGE – Quiet, Spoken] You wanted the world to hear you Now it does [FINAL CHORUS – Massive] So play me loud, don’t ask me why Let fate inhale the tale If my soul’s the final audience Then bow to the Ebony Grail [OUTRO – Instrumental Descending notes fading into cold silence]
