Lyrics
[Movement I — Awakening]
[Instrumentation: sparse piano, deep reverb; soft sub-bass swells; distant choral pads]
[Vocals: breathy, emotional, intimate — near-whisper croon]
I woke beneath the weight of tides,
Salt in my lungs like a borrowed life.
Your echo trembling through the deep,
A ghost of warmth I failed to keep.
Hands reaching through the undertow,
Pulling me where the lost things go.
But still I hear your distant call—
A promise rising past the fall.
⸻
[Movement II — Fracture]
[Instrumentation: clean guitar arpeggios; syncopated drums with rimshots; swelling atmospheric synth]
[Vocals: soft melodic lines with emotional cracks]
And I…
I never meant to drag you through this storm.
But every truth I hid just kept you torn.
And you…
You held your breath beneath my breaking waves,
Hoping love could pull me up, and make me brave.
[Movement III — Descent]
[Instrumentation: distorted guitars slowly building; double-layered bass (clean + growling); tom-heavy tribal drums]
[Vocals: melodic → strained → screamed harmonics transitioning]
Pull me down—
Let the currents claim what I became.
No crown—
Only the shame carved deep in my name.
Pull me under—
If I drown, then let it be truth.
No thunder—
Only the wreckage of my youth.
[Movement IV — Cataclysm]
[Instrumentation: full distortion; djent-style polyrhythmic guitars; punchy kick; ambient choir behind the chaos]
[Vocals: harsh screams layered with clean high harmonies — Vessel-style contrast]
I BURN in the waters I tried to command,
A throne of sand slipping out of my hands.
I BREAK where the pressure was meant to transform,
My heart the eye at the edge of the storm.
I SEE all the moments I lost to the tide—
The reasons you stayed, and the truths that I lied.
And I KNOW that I never deserved your reprieve…
But I rise from the ruin of who I used to be.
⸻
[Movement V — Rebirth]
[Instrumentation: guitars drop out; ethereal synth + piano return; soft percussion; warm bass bloom]
[Vocals: gentle, warm, but still trembling with emotion]
I surface slow—
Not the man you used to know,
But a quieter light
In the echoing glow.
And if your heart still drifts near mine,
We’ll meet again
In another lifetime.
⸻
[Movement VI — Ascension]
[Instrumentation: massive finale — soaring leads, orchestral pads, layered choirs, evolving polyrhythms]
[Vocals: powerful, soaring belts layered with soft falsetto harmonies]
So look to the windward—
Where the broken become whole.
Look toward the shoreline—
Where the tide returns the soul.
I won’t run from the current,
Won’t fade from what I’ve been—
For rebirth is a circle,
And it brings me back
AGAIN!
[Interlude swells, tempo builds]
Bring me back again!
Bring me back again! (Again)
Bring me back again….
Bring me back AGAIN!
Bring me back AGAIN! (Again)
[Tempo slows down drastically]
Bring me back… (Bring me)
Bring me back… (Again)
Bring me back again…
