[Intro — piano + ambient crackling, distant fire‑wind sound effects]
[soft vocals, intimate, trembly]
I felt the spark before the night broke —
A red haze dancing at the edge of my vision.
Your flame touched my skin —
And I swore I heard the world sigh.
⸻
[Verse 1 — fragile, melancholic]
You showed up in embers, eyes like molten gold,
Whispered promises only fire ever knows.
I reached for warmth, for light to carry me home,
But your flame flickered—too wild to hold.
I tasted smoke on your breath, heavy like sin,
Felt the heat of your touch burn shy beneath my skin.
I wanted refuge, wanted solace in your glow,
But the blaze you lit consumed me slow.
⸻
[Build — synth pads, backing vocals, tension rising]
The night folds inward, shadows trace your silhouette,
And I’m lost between the heat and the regret.
Your fire calls me deeper, beyond the calm,
Into a blaze that knows no dawn.
⸻
[Emotional plea / Chorus‑like section — atmospheric, soaring]
Let me drown in your fire,
Pull me under, let the flames rear.
I will melt, I will simmer, I will die,
If I burn with you, at least I’m near.
Every spark from your hand—
A debt I’ll gladly pay.
For ashes, for cinders,
For twilight in your blaze.
⸻
[Instrumental interlude - Soft piano and reverb-drenched pads fade in, subtle percussion layered, a droning synth slowly grows, occasional fire crackling / distorted ambient noise to add tension, then builds gradually toward the breakdown]
[Heavy Rockdown / Breakdown — guitars, drums crash, raw vocal anguish, screams]
FALLEN ASHES, BROKEN BONES—
THIS PYRE’S FLAMES WILL SCREAM MY NAME!
YOU WANTED HEAT, YOU WANTED PAIN—
I’M JUST THE FLAME IGNITING EVERYTHING!
I WROTE YOUR NAME IN FIRE—
LET IT TURN TO COAL!
AND IF I BURN TO NOTHING—
AT LEAST I’LL BURN WHOLE!
[instrumental -heavy guitars, drums, feedback, rising intensity]
⸻
[Final Section — heavy instrumentation continues; vocals raw then shift to distant echo]
I am drowning in your fire,
Searing through the night until I’m hollow.
Every heartbeat a drum of molten lead —
Every breath a name forgotten.
I’ll rise from ash, or fade into smoke,
But I’ll never be the man I was before you.
Your flame stole my shape —
Left me burning, bathing in your heat.
⸻
[Outro — piano returns, ambient fire‑echoes, soft distant vocals]
And when the last spark dies out,
And silence claims the blaze —
I may be gone, or I may remain —
But I’ll never be cold again.
Let the fire fade…
But never forget the burn.
