--- ## **“Lost in the Echoing Flame” ### **Verse 1 (Clean)** I’ve been walking through the shadows of a dream I can’t explain, Tracing memories like embers that still whisper out your name. Every heartbeat feels unsteady, like it’s drifting out of time, And I’m choking on the silence where your voice once answered mine. ### **Pre-Chorus (Clean)** But I keep falling deeper, Into the places I can’t hide… Tell me—are you somewhere out there, Or just a ghost inside my mind? ### **Chorus (Clean + Layered Harmonies)** ’Cause I am lost… **lost in the echoing flame**, Reaching out through the dark for a reason to stay. When the world falls away, will you still call my name? I am lost… **Lost, but I’m burning to feel you again.** (soaring harmonies: “feel you again… again… again…”) --- ## **Verse 2 (Clean/Growl Interplay)** The sky collapses into color as the night begins to sway, Every fear becomes a monster I keep trying to outrun. But the ashes on my fingers tell the truth I can’t betray— What I held too long is fading… [GROWL] **and what’s gone can’t be undone.** ### **Pre-Chorus (Clean)** So I keep reaching inward, Past the fractures in my soul… Can you hear me breaking open, Or am I screaming into cold? --- ## **Chorus (Clean + Layered Harmonies)** ’Cause I am lost… **lost in the echoing flame**, Reaching out through the dark for a reason to stay. When the world falls away, will you still call my name? I am lost… **Lost, but I’m burning to feel you again.** (harmony stack: “burning… burning… feel you again…”) --- ## **Bridge (Growls + Clean soaring lines)** [GROWL] **Shatter the silence—tear open the sky!** [GROWL] **Pull me from the darkness—I’m not ready to die!** (Clean, soaring) But if I fall tonight… will you find me there? Will you lift me up from the smoke and the air? I’m unraveling—just take my hand… Let me breathe again… --- ## **Final Chorus (Full Layered Harmony + Growl Underscore)** ’Cause I am lost… **lost in the echoing flame**, With the fire in my chest calling out your name. Though the world falls away, I will rise from the pain— I am lost… **Lost, but I’m burning to feel you again.** [GROWL under harmony] **TO FEEL YOU AGAIN!** --- ## **Outro (Clean)** And if tomorrow never comes, Let these embers be my guide… I was lost— But through the melody, I’m still alive.
