Born From Deep Within
[Intro] [A soft, sorrowful piano gently enters with a soft, somber and melodic tune — slow, breathy, faint and melodic humming] [Verse 1] [Gentle, emotional, somber melodic. Piano with the dreamwave synths] I walk the edge of a quiet storm Where the light gets thin and the world turns warm To the shadows that call my name Like they knew me before I came It started small, a quiet thing A whisper behind everything Now it’s the air that I breathe in Closing in beneath my skin [Pre-Chorus] [Intensity builds towards the chorus] And I try to reach for something bright But the fog rolls in and it blurs the light Every step I take feels like a sin Don't know where the dark ends and I begin [Chorus] [Powerful, sorrowful, emotional and deeply melodic. The hook of the song with melodic and ethereal humming mixed in] Destined to walk where the shadows fall Destined to stand when the world calls No matter where I look, I can’t win The dark is born from deep within [Ethereal and melodic humming] Yeah, born from deep within [The humming finishes the chorus] [Verse 2] [The same as verse 1 but more melodic] It isn’t just tonight, it isn’t just today It’s the heavy way I wake and the heavy way I lay A quiet storm that never seems to cease A tiredness no rest can ever ease I try to stand, I try to find my place But the weight of me is always in the race It’s been with me through every changing season No beginning, no end, and no good reason [Pre-Chorus] [Building again] And I try to reach for something bright But the fog rolls in and it blurs the light Every step I take feels like a sin Don't know where the dark ends and I begin [Chorus] Destined to walk where the shadows fall Destined to stand when the world calls No matter where I look, I can’t win The dark is born from deep within [Ethereal and melodic humming] Yeah, born from deep within [The humming finishes the chorus] [The electric distorted guitar now kicks in to join the other instruments] [Bridge] [Powerful, melodic and defiant vocals. The guitar is now blending with the dreamwave] It's not the sky, it's not the wind Not the ghosts that I let in It's the blood, the bone, the quiet scar The part of me that's always been Can't outrun what beats in my chest Can't leave the part of me that's blessed With the heavy, hollow, quiet thing From where the dark is born to be king [Guitar Solo] [A deeply melodic and harmonising guitar solo, not super fast, it’s more about the powerful and melodic emotion within] [Final Chorus] [Full energy, all instruments to the final climax] Destined to walk where the shadows fall Destined to stand when the world calls No matter where I look, I can’t win The dark is born from deep within [Ethereal and melodic humming] Yeah, born from deep within [The humming finishes the chorus] [Outro] [Voice fades, melody drifts away, the guitar stops and just the piano remains] Not from outside… not from them… From where the dark is born… From within…
