[Verse 1]
She stands howling on the mountain,
moonlight in her golden eyes…
Honey dripping from her silence,
sweet, but deadly in disguise.
I was climbing there alone,
chasing power, chasing fire…
Never thought I’d meet a force
that could challenge my desire.
⸻
[Pre-Chorus]
Every step became a question,
every breath a deeper pull…
Is it conquest — or surrender?
Am I hunter… or consumed?
⸻
[Chorus]
Nectar of surrender…
sweet against my will…
I tried to hold my hunger,
but I taste it still.
Power in the darkness,
calling out my name…
I came to rule the mountain —
now I’m part of the flame.
⸻
[Verse 2]
I’ve carried every story,
every man I used to be…
All their strength inside my body
led me to this peak.
Every echo, every silence,
every trace beneath my skin…
I wanted to control it —
but it’s pulling me within.
⸻
[Pre-Chorus 2]
There’s a river in the soil now,
calling something back to life…
I feel my soul descending,
like I’m giving up the fight.
⸻
[Chorus]
Nectar of surrender…
flowing through my veins…
I thought I came as conqueror,
but I’m dissolving in the same.
Power in the darkness,
no more need to defend…
I don’t know if this is losing…
or becoming what I am.
⸻
[Bridge — ritual / spoken tone]
The wind said stop…
but the drums grew louder…
Echoes of something ancient —
something I remember.
I cannot decide…
I cannot resist…
I cannot… not touch it.
⸻
[Final Chorus — transcendent]
Nectar of surrender…
no more fear to name…
If I’m devoured by the darkness —
then I become the flame.
No more running,
no more pretending to ascend…
I am not the prey…
I am the beginning and the end.
