The Storm is Home

Lyrics

INTRO — DISTANT WHISPERS, LOW VIOLIN

They put me in the dark
and called it justice.

They thought I'd disappear.

SUB-BASS PULSE

Wrong fucking grave.

VERSE — COLD, SPOKEN

The respectable smiled.
The machinery turned.
They placed their bets
on what I'd lose.

They mistook survival
for something they could take.

BEAT CUT — FOOTSTEPS, BREATH

I've known the dark
since I was a child.

You think you sentenced me?

You sent me home.

DROP — DISTORTED VIOLIN, CRUSHING BASS

THE STORM IS HOME.
THE STORM IS HOME.

The shadows know
what the daylight hides.

THE STORM IS HOME.

BREAKDOWN — WHISPERS CIRCULATING

I proved myself before you knew my name.

I owe you nothing.
Not my silence.
Not my shame.

BUILD — DISSONANT STRINGS

Your little reward.
Your little game.
Your prisoner's dilemma.

Who breaks first?

DEAD SILENCE

Not me.

[HORROR CLIMAX — INDUSTRIAL KICK, SCREAMING VIOLIN]

YOU THOUGHT MY FALL
WOULD END MY LIFE.

YOU BUILT YOUR THRONE
ON YOUR OWN LIES.

THE DARK REACHED OUT.
THE SHADOWS ROSE.

THE LIGHT YOU PROMISED
NEVER GLOWED.

BREAK — SINGLE FEMALE WHISPER

Saving Grace.

FINAL DROP — CHOIR, DISTORTED BASS

I AM THE CROWN.

NOT YOUR QUEEN.

I AM THE CROWN.

REMEMBER WHAT YOU'VE SEEN.

I DON'T ASK.
I DON'T BOW.

THE STORM IS MINE.

THE STORM IS NOW.

OUTRO — BASS FADES, VIOLIN REMAINS

You thought darkness
would erase me.

It taught me
how to see.
