[INTRO – soft piano / distant sirens]
(Radio static)
NEWS REPORTER (V.O.)
“Authorities are urging all residents to evacuate Los Angeles immediately…”
(faint proton pack hum)
WHISPER (V.O.)
“…Phoebe…”
⸻
[VERSE 1]
New York shadows in the rain
A proton stream, a life in pain
One mistake still burns her mind
Now ghosts whisper from behind
The firehouse feels cold tonight
Broken sleep and flashing lights
A call comes in from west of town
Something ancient’s waking now
Three days later, engines roar
California opens its door
Sunlight hides what waits beneath
A buried curse with sharpened teeth
⸻
[PRE-CHORUS]
And every hallway starts to shake
Every memory starts to break
She hears the voices through the dark
Like something calling through her heart
⸻
[CHORUS]
Whoa-oh
West Coast Ghostbusters rising
Sirens screaming through the night
Whoa-oh
Purple lightning on the skyline
Trying to save what’s left alive
From New York streets to Hollywood
They fought the evil no one could
But every hero carries scars
Underneath the flashing stars
And when the sky begins to bleed
Who do you become when fear takes lead?
At the end of the beginning
Will the light survive the dark?
⸻
[VERSE 2]
Universal after dark
Whispers moving through the park
An old book bound in blood and stone
Calling Phoebe all alone
Willow watches through the flame
Learning every hidden pain
Twisting guilt into a chain
Till Phoebe barely knows her name
Containment cracks beneath the floor
Pink mist crawling through the doors
Ghosts are spreading citywide
Nobody left safe inside
⸻
[BUILD]
And Winston says
“You don’t have to carry this alone…”
But the voices only grow louder
⸻
[HEAVY DROP / ROCK SECTION]
RUN!
The city’s falling
RUN!
The sky turns black
RUN!
The temple rises
There’s no turning back!
Gargoyles tearing through the streets
ECTO crashing underneath
Military lines collapse
Ghosts pouring through the cracks
And through the chaos stands the team
Old legends fighting side by side
Peter, Ray and Winston too
One last stand before goodbye
⸻
[EMOTIONAL BRIDGE – orchestral / choir]
Phoebe…
Can you hear them calling?
The people who still believe in you?
You are not a monster
You are not alone
Even in the Void
Even in the storm
There’s still a hand reaching through
⸻
[FINAL CHORUS – huge cinematic ending]
Whoa-oh
West Coast Ghostbusters standing
At the edge of all we know
Whoa-oh
Cross the streams and hold the line now
Before the whole world lets go
Ley lines burning through the earth
Ghosts reclaiming human birth
But hope still lives inside the flame
Even after all the pain
And when the final portal breaks
And the earth itself still shakes
The legends rise one final time
To save the world before midnight
⸻
[OUTRO – quiet piano / fading proton hum]
(soft static)
PETER (V.O.)
“I leave New York for ONE NIGHT…”
(distant laughter)
RAY (V.O.)
“I told you we’d need the slime blower again.”
(faint crackling proton stream)
