Umber

[Somber piano in minor keys opens]

[Intro]
A shadow stretches, the day it consumes
Lost in void, no sun, no moon
Voices of the people gone
Wandering where it went wrong…

[Piano solo]

[Verse 1]
Walking through the endless grey
Faces fade, they're gone away
Silent screams in hollow halls
In this darkness, I crawl

[Pre-Chorus]
(Screaming vocals)
But in the black, a whisper calls
The shadow of a goddess falls
Guiding through the madness, slow
A flicker in the undertow

[Chorus]
Shadow goddess, bring me light
Or drag me into endless night
Purpose born from ancient gloom
Dancing in my mind’s tomb

[Verse 2]
Crazed thoughts spin and collide
Madness is my only guide
My sanity's a thin thread
Walking me closer to the dead

[Pre-Chorus] 
(Screaming vocals)
In her gaze, I lose control
A fractured soul, a shattered whole
Her shadow pulls me deep within
A sacred, cursed sin

[Chorus]
Shadow goddess, bring me light
Or drag me into endless night
Purpose born from ancient gloom
Dancing in my mind’s tomb

[Bridge]
Screaming echoes, pounding like bass
Poly-rhythmic, relentless chase
Gothic darkness, a lonely cry
Madness woven through the sky
Always stuck, wandering in place
But now to finally see your face

[Piano and bass solo]

[Breakdown]
(Screaming vocals)
Distorted screams, feral sound
In her shadow, I'm bound
Syncopate my racing heart
Torn apart, ripped apart

[Outro]
In her shadows, I decay
But in her darkness, I stay
Lost forever in the chaos
Under her shadow's laws
