[Intro — Mournful Solo Violin / Distant Female Breath / Low Sub-Bass] [Verse 1 — intimate, mournful violin, sparse industrial pulse] I watched you hold the heavens When the pillars came undone Armor split and bleeding Still you stood against the sun You swore you'd fight the darkness You'd tear the gates apart But no one ever told you You weren't meant to guard alone So I walked into the fire Not behind you—at your side You don't have to be my shelter If I'm strong enough to rise [Pre-Chorus — Orchestra Building] Do you hear it? Two pulses underneath the sky Do you feel it? The weight returning side to side [Chorus — Massive Orchestra + Industrial Bass] I'll fight Heaven You'll fight Hell with me When your hands begin to tremble Mine will carry what you need You hold the line I'll hold the ground Neither above Neither bowing down And where two forces finally meet— what couldn't stand before us finds its feet [Verse 2 — organic frame drums enter beneath machinery] You were forged to move the mountain I was born to move the root You can split the earth wide open I can call the living through But creation without structure Falls apart before it's grown And strength without its counterweight Builds kingdoms out of stone So bring your thunder I'll bring rain Bring your fury I'll bring change Not to tame you Not to reign— We become the balance neither held alone [Bridge — machinery and organic pulse begin synchronizing] Not your shadow. Not your throne. Not the half that makes you whole. Whole beside whole. Weight for weight. Neither asking one to break. [Orchestra begins rising] And when both stand and both remain— something new can hold its shape. [Final Chorus — FULL COLLISION, orchestra + industrial + organic percussion + female choir, neither element dominant] We'll fight Heaven We'll fight Hell Not to conquer— not to kneel If you falter I take weight If I fracture you hold straight You hold the line I hold the ground Equal forces turning round And from the place where both stand true— comes something neither could become alone. [Outro — Orchestra Falls Away / Violin + Two Voices] You don't carry me. I don't carry you. We carry this.
