[Intro] [Slow, atmospheric drum beat with heavy room reverb] [Delicate, melancholic chorused electric guitar] [Orchestral strings slowly swell] [Verse 1] [Female Vocal 1: Soulful, grounded Alto - Yu Shu Lien] I never meant to cause you any sorrow. I only wanted to protect the blade. I buried all my love for some tomorrow, But honor is a debt that must be paid. I watched you fly across the silent roofs at night, A wild bird who doesn't know the cage is tight. [Chorus] [Both Vocals, massive gospel-rock harmony] [Heavy, anthemic crashing drums] I never wanted to be your enemy! I only wanted to see you in the jade rain. Jade rain, jade rain. Jade rain, jade rain. Jade rain, jade rain. I only want to see you flying in the jade rain. [Verse 2] [Female Vocal 2: Passionate, soaring Soprano - Jen Yu] I didn't want to live inside their towers. I didn't want the ring, I wanted the sky! You talk of duty while you crush your flowers, You'd rather keep the rules than learn to fly. I stole the sword because I had to feel the fire, Caught in the desert of my own desire! [Chorus] [Both Vocals, maximum emotion] I never wanted to be your enemy! I only wanted to see you in the jade rain. Jade rain, jade rain. Jade rain, jade rain. Jade rain, jade rain. I only want to see you flying in the jade rain. [Verse 3 - Call and Response] [Music strips back slightly, tense and emotional] [Vocal 1 - Alto] You hold the steel, but you don't know the weight! [Vocal 2 - Soprano] You hold his heart, but you leave it to fate! [Vocal 1 - Alto] The poison takes the ones we try to save... [Both Vocals screaming] Let's jump together from the mountain to the wave! [Chorus] [Full gospel choir backing, absolute peak energy] Jade rain, jade rain! Jade rain, jade rain! Jade rain, jade rain! I only want to see you flying in the jade rain! [Epic Guitar Solo] [Massive, screaming, face-melting 1980s rock guitar solo] [High emotion, bending notes, soaring over the heavy drums] [Strings swell in the background] [Outro] [Rhythm pulls back, sweeping orchestral strings and piano] [Ethereal Wordless Vocals] Woo-oo-oo-oo-hoo. Woo-oo-oo-oo-hoo. Woo-oo-oo-oo-hoo. [Guitar gently weeps in the background] Woo-oo-oo-oo-hoo. [Slowly fading out on a final, beautiful piano chord] [Fade to silence]
