SERPENT CATHEDRAL

[Intro – Wet Flesh Sounds + Low Chant + Echoing Choir]
The walls… move.

Not breathing—

listening.

⸻

[Verse 1 – Crusader POV, Uneasy]
Columns twist like coiling bone
Veins run thick through living stone
Every step sinks slightly deep
Like the ground remembers feet

Stained glass made of frozen screams
Light bleeding through in broken beams
Something sacred, something wrong

Like this place was alive too long

⸻

[Pre-Chorus – Growing Unease]
This isn’t Hell like what I’ve seen
This is something in between
Not just flesh — not just decay

Something ancient… turned this way

⸻

[Chorus I – Dark, Ritual Tone]
Serpent Cathedral — coiled in prayer
Something watches everywhere
Not just demons, not just lies

Something older in disguise

From the ashes…
I—

(voice distorts… cuts)

⸻

[Verse 2 – ShadowSing Takes Over]
(voice shifts — deeper, smoother, colder)

You feel it now.
The truth beneath.

Not all of Hell
was built from teeth.

This place remembers
before the war—

Before the gates,
before the lore.

(Crusader, low)
What is this place…

(ShadowSing)
A wound…
that learned how to pray.

⸻

[Pre-Chorus II – Ritual Escalation]
(choir chanting, reversed)

Flesh bends.
Stone breathes.

Truth hides
in what believes.

⸻

[Chorus II – ShadowSing Dominant]
Serpent Cathedral — bow or break
Every god was once a mistake
Every angel, every flame

Was shaped… and then became

Not Heaven.
Not Hell.

Something in between as well

From the ashes…
we reign.

⸻

[Boss Arrival – Corrupted Arch-Celestial]
(Wings tear through the ceiling — massive impact)

A figure descends.

Wings not feather—
but fractured light and bone

Halo broken… orbiting like debris

⸻

[Verse 3 – Confrontation]
(Angel voice — distorted, layered)
“You carry his flame…”

(Crusader)
I carry my own.

(Angel)
“You carry what we began.”

(ShadowSing, calm)
Then we’ll finish it.

⸻

[BREAKDOWN – Grotesque, Violent]
Flesh walls collapse inward
Serpents tear through pillars
Light fractures into shards

(STOMP)
No sanctuary.
No divine.
No sacred lie
left behind.

(SCREAM)
YOU BUILT THIS
TO WORSHIP PAIN—

WE BUILT OURSELVES
TO BREAK THE CHAIN.

⸻

[Bridge – ShadowSing Revelation]
(quiet, eerie)

(ShadowSing)
You think I am part of you.

(Crusader, low)
You are.

(ShadowSing)
No.

I am what survived…

before you.

⸻

[Final Chorus III – Unified but Uneasy]
Serpent Cathedral — now undone
No more gods, no chosen one
Every truth you tried to hide

Burns away — no place to reside

Not your throne
Not your design
Not your war
Not your divine

From the ashes…

we reign.
