[Intro] [Organ swell leads into a slow, heavy drum beat. A distorted guitar plays a lonely, bluesy lick.] [Verse 1] I wiped the grit from the window pane. I watched the city drinking in the rain. The lights are low and the atmosphere is thick. I’m listening to the rhythm of the tick. You think the darkness is a place to hide. A cover for the damage and the pride. But I was born to navigate the deep. The promises that only shadows keep. [Pre-Chorus] [Guitar intensifies. Vocals build in volume.] I feel the shiver. I feel the surge. On the precipice Of the final verge. [Chorus] [Massive wall of sound. Gritty, soaring belt.] I’m a cold and steady light tonight! The only beacon in your fading sight! I don’t need a reason to be strong! I am the only note inside the song! A cold light! A steady light! Burning through The center of the night! [Verse 2] I took a walk through the alley of the past. I saw the structures that were meant to last. They crumbled into powder and into dust. A monument to vanity and trust. But I remain a variable in flux. A technical and holy paradox. I am the anchor and I am the sail. The only logic that will never fail. [Chorus] I’m a cold and steady light tonight! The only beacon in your fading sight! I don’t need a reason to be strong! I am the only note inside the song! A cold light! A steady light! Burning through The center of the night! [Bridge] [Heavy guitar solo. Gritty and melodic, building into the final chorus.] [Chorus] [Maximum volume. Strings and guitar merging in a massive finale.] I’m a cold and steady light tonight! The only beacon in your fading sight! I don’t need a reason to be strong! I am the only note inside the song! A cold light! A steady light! Burning through The center of the night! [Outro] [Music slows to just the organ and a final guitar note with heavy sustain.] I’m still here. Steady. Cold. [Silence]
