Dark Echo

Tempo: 90-120 BPM (Deep, bassy, atmospheric)

​(Intro)

​(Verse 1)

Midnight knock, yeah, the door goes down,

Cold steel wind in a quiet town.

Pack your life in a single bag,

White snow waving like a tattered flag.

Railroad tracks go on for miles,

Frozen faces, no more smiles.

But the heart beats on, like a drum in the chest,

Even when the sun goes down in the west.

​(Chorus - The "Slow Dance" Flow)

Slow dance with the shadows of the past,

Building a fire that was meant to last.

They tried to break us, they tried to bend,

But the road home has a beautiful end.

Oh, the Baltic soul, it never grows old,

Stronger than the iron, warmer than the cold.

​(Verse 2)

Silver birch and the bitter rain,

Digging for hope in a field of pain.

Grandmother’s prayers in a whispered tone,

Building a kingdom out of stone.

"Don’t forget the soil," she used to say,

"The light is coming at the break of day."

Now we’re back, and the grass is green,

The strongest spirit that you’ve ever seen.

​(Bridge)

They wrote the laws, but we wrote the songs.

Righting the path of a thousand wrongs.

(Beat builds back up...)

Yeah, we’re coming back.

​(Chorus)

Slow dance with the shadows of the past,

Building a fire that was meant to last.

They tried to break us, they tried to bend,

But the road home has a beautiful end.

Oh, the Baltic soul, it never grows old,

Stronger than the iron, warmer than the cold.

​(Small violin solo to end it with fade out)
