Verse 1
Light once promised it would stay
But left me here to learn decay
Every flame I tried to save
Chose to die inside my hands
Pre-Chorus (sehr leise)
This is no salvation
This is no farewell
The requiem you hear
Is me
Chorus
This is the requiem for the light
No dawn waits on the other side
I don’t beg, I don’t repent
I end what heaven sent
Sing it low, sing it slow
Let the final embers fall
This is the requiem for the light
Verse 2
I don’t curse what made me strong
I don’t fear what I become
If darkness is the truth I found
Then let it be the final sound
Bridge (groß, sakral)
No more prayers
No more lies
Only ash
Only rise
Final Chorus / Outro
This is the requiem for the light
I don’t fade — I redefine
From the dark, a crown is born
I am what survives the storm
