V5.5

[Intro (The Darkness)] [A single electric guitar playing a slow, heavy, repetitive chord in a deep reverb vault] [Distant, cold ambient drone, like walking alone in an empty city at night] [No drums, a feeling of being completely lost] [Verse 1] I was tracing the edges of a ruined life Walking in circles, sharpening the knife A ghost in the background, a man made of stone Just counting the days of being alone. Then you broke through the static... you rewrote the lines. [Verse 2] You looked at my wreckage and you saw a home You taught me to breathe through the ash and the loam For the very first time, I am looking up high Seeing the color return to the sky You make me want to be... someone worthy of you. [THE SENTIMENTAL BRIDGE (The Turning Point)] I was falling apart in the dark... But you held the spark. You changed the gravity. You saved me from me. [The strings start to rise in pitch, a massive snare roll begins to accelerate, building an unbearable emotional pressure] [THE EXPLOSION (Cathartic Climax)] YOU CHANGED IT ALL! YOU CHANGED IT ALL! [Outro] "Thank you."
