“Return by Death”

[INTRO — 0:00–0:20 | 10 bars at 30 BPM]

(Whispered, slow)
I wake… in the dark… again…
Fate whispers… “Try once more…”
Blood on the snow…
I breathe… but the world resets…
Return… return… return by death…

⸻

VERSE 1 — 0:20–1:20 (30 BPM SLOW-FLOW)

(Bar 1–4)
Every step I take, another timeline breaks,
Another nightmare forms from the choices that I make.
Standing in Lugnica, holding all my aches,
My heart’s a fragile mirror that the universe shakes.

(Bar 5–8)
Rem’s smile fades like a ghost in the rain,
A memory erased but I still feel the pain.
Emilia’s hope keeps calling my name,
But I’m drowning in loops I can’t explain.

(Bar 9–12)
I fall… then rise… again… and again,
Carrying futures on a heartbeat thin.
Sanity slipping like a whisper in the wind,
But I won’t quit — even death won’t win.

(Bar 13–16)
Witch’s scent crawling on my trembling skin,
Every death a lesson carved deep within.
Time bends, twists, breaks like sin,
Yet I stand… I bleed… begin again.

⸻

PRE-CHORUS — 1:20–1:40

Slow breaths…
Heart slows…
Clock breaks…
World froze…

I hear the voice…
Through shadowed breath…
Calling my soul…
Back from death…

⸻

CHORUS — 1:40–2:20 | (Long, powerful, slow)

(Sing/Rap)
I fall and I rise in a loop without end,
A fate rewound that time can’t defend.
My life resets but my soul won’t bend,
Return by death… return again.

I carry the pain that the world forgets,
Memories burned with eternal regrets.
But I’ll fight for the love that destiny rejects—
Return by death… return again.

⸻

VERSE 2 — 2:20–3:20 | (30 BPM — darker and heavier)

(Bar 1–4)
Petelgeuse eyes watching every move I take,
Madness dripping down like poison in its wake.
The Witches’ shadows swirl, reality starts to shake,
But for her — Emilia — everything’s at stake.

(Bar 5–8)
Rem in my dreams in a world that forgot,
A heartbeat echo from a timeline I lost.
Ram stands tall with the fire she’s got,
A maid with a will that no demon can stop.

(Bar 9–12)
Roswaal plays fate like a puppet on a string,
Betting on my suffering for the future he’ll bring.
Beatrice guarding her forbidden wing,
A promise waiting centuries for someone to cling.

(Bar 13–16)
Sanctuary trials tearing open my chest,
Facing my failures I tried to suppress.
But even when despair won’t let me rest—
I rise again… I give my best.

⸻

CHORUS — 3:20–3:55 | (Final, emotional)

I fall and I rise in a loop without end,
A fate rewound that time can’t defend.
My life resets but my soul won’t bend,
Return by death… return again.

I carry the pain that the world forgets,
Memories burned with eternal regrets.
But I’ll fight for the love destiny rejects—
Return by death… return again.

⸻

OUTRO — 3:55–4:00 (Last few slow bars)

(Spoken softly)
If this world resets…
Then so will my hope…
I’ll save them all…
No matter the cost…

Return… by… death…

slow, heavy dramatic delivery.
