[Verse 1 – Male: Sigma]

They told me storms were meant to fear,
That thunder meant the end was near.
But where they heard the heavens cry,
I heard a song across the sky.

So let them hide and let them pray,
I'll play until the break of day.
With every chord the heavens ring,
For chaos bows before no king!

[Verse 2 – Female: Carlene]
They offered me a gilded throne,
A kingdom built on borrowed stone.
But dragon blood runs fierce and free,
No mortal king commands this queen!
Beneath my horns, the lightning glows,
A violet tempest wakes below.
One whispered word, one lifted hand,
And thunder rolls across the land!

[Pre-Chorus – Call and Response]
[Male – Sigma]
Your Majesty, shall we begin?
[Female – Carlene]
Play louder! Let the storm roll in!
[Male – Sigma]
I'll make their mighty towers shake!
[Female – Carlene]
And I shall watch their heavens break!
[Duet – Both]
They thought our power could be tamed...
TONIGHT THEY'LL LEARN OUR NAMES!

[Chorus – Duet: Male + Female, Choir]
VIOLET LIGHTNING! CHAOS REIGNS!
THUNDER HAS TWO NAMES!
One wears the crown, one strikes the strings,
And all the heavens rise to sing!
LET THE MOUNTAINS CRACK AND SHAKE!
LET THE SLEEPING SKIES AWAKE!
No iron throne, no golden chain,
WILL EVER SILENCE US AGAIN!
THE STORM QUEEN AND THE STORM SINGER!
FOREVER UNCHAINED!

[Instrumental – Guitar and Orchestra]

[Verse 3 – Male: Sigma]
My fingers dance across the strings,
I hear the fury freedom brings.
The Mark of Chaos starts to glow,
As purple lightning strikes below!
They call me reckless, call me mad,
The worst nightmare they've ever had.
But every kingdom built on fear
Will hear my music drawing near!

[Verse 4 – Female: Carlene]
Through veils of violet, dressed in night,
I walk beneath the storm's own light.
They see my smile and think me kind,
Until the thunder speaks my mind.
My crown was never theirs to give,
I rule the storms in which I live.
And standing where the wild winds reign,
I'll never bow to kings again!

[Pre-Chorus 2 – Call and Response]

[Male – Sigma]
You should hear me when I fight!
[Female – Carlene]
Your little song has quite a bite!
[Male – Sigma]
Just say the word, I'll give you more!
[Female – Carlene]
Then strike your strings and make them roar!

[Duet – Both]
LET EVERY BELL OF FREEDOM RING!
AND HEAR THE STORM WE BRING!

[Guitar Solo – Symphonic Power Metal]

[Bridge – Call and Response]
[Female – Carlene, gentle]
When all the stars have lost their light,
And shadows swallow up the night...
[Male – Sigma, warm]
I'll play a song to guide the way,
And chase the endless dark away.
[Female – Carlene]
And should the heavens fall apart...
[Male – Sigma]
Then let the thunder be our heart!
[Duet – Both, rising]
For neither crown nor chord alone
Could shake the world as we have shown!
Two different souls, two different flames,
Yet thunder carries both our names!

[Breakdown – Thunder]
[Male – Sigma, spoken]
Hey, Carlene... Think we've made enough noise?
[Female – Carlene, laughing]
Oh, darling... We're only getting started.

[Final Chorus – Duet: Male + Female, Key Change]
VIOLET LIGHTNING! CHAOS REIGNS!
THUNDER HAS TWO NAMES!
One wears the crown, one strikes the strings,
AND ALL CREATION RISES TO SING!
LET THE MOUNTAINS CRACK AND SHAKE!
LET THE SLEEPING SKIES AWAKE!
NO IRON THRONE! NO GOLDEN CHAIN!
WILL EVER SILENCE US AGAIN!
[Male – Sigma]
LET THE WORLD HEAR THE STORM SINGER!
[Female – Carlene]
LET THE HEAVENS FEAR THEIR QUEEN!
[Duet – Both, Choir]
THROUGH THE DARKNESS, THROUGH THE RAIN!
THUNDER HAS TWO NAMES!

[Outro – Rain]
[Female – Carlene, soft]
The storm has passed...
[Male – Sigma, chuckling]
For now.
[Duet – Both, whispered]
But thunder never dies.

[Intro – Thunder, Orchestra] [Female – Carlene, spoken] They thought the heavens could be chained... [Male – Sigma, spoken] Then they've never heard a storm sing.
