Life is Ending

Lyrics

[Intro - low ritual drums, distant thunder, shadowy choir humming, trembling sub-bass]
Ooooh...
Hear the earth crack open slow...
Ooooh...
The night has learned my name...

[Verse 1 - whispering shamanic chants, dark synth pulse, sparse cinematic strings, ominous trap hi-hats]
Smoke in the marrow, ash in the breath,
I walk through the omen, dressed in the threat.
Bones in the candlelight, eyes in the mist,
Every old prayer turns cold on my lips.

The sky is a wound and the moon is a blade,
Time is a serpent with nowhere to fade.
I hear the bells in the black of my chest,
Calling the living to lay down to rest.

[Pre-Chorus - rising choir pads, tightening strings, deeper kick, ritual hand drums]
Kyrie in shadows, no mercy, no light,
The river is hungry, it swallows the night.
Kyrie in shadows, the veil is undone,
The last ember trembles, then there is none...

[Chorus - explosive dark choir, massive 808s, pounding beats, cinematic strings, warped gang chants]
Life is ending, hear the drums descend,
Black wings circling at the edge of the end.
Life is ending, let the silence sing,
All that we were fades into the ring.

Life is ending, no more dawn to chase,
Only the void with its ancient face.
Life is ending, the final flame,
Call out my soul and it answers the same.

[Verse 2 - sinister hip-hop cadence, gritty bass, eerie synth stabs, low male chants]
I came from the smoke where the broken ones kneel,
With a crown made of thorns and a heart made of steel.
Now the walls start breathing, now the floorboards groan,
And the dead in the mirror are no longer alone.

I spit from the threshold, I rap to the grave,
Every word like a dagger, every breath like a wave.
If fate wants a feast, then I’ll feed it my fear,
Let the wolves in the rafters know the end is near.

[Pre-Chorus - layered vocals, mounting strings, tribal percussion, distorted choir swell]
Kyrie in shadows, the hour is near,
The black sun is rising, dissolving the year.
Kyrie in shadows, the fire bows low,
And the names we carried are the first to go...

[Chorus - full cinematic impact, thunderous choir, crushing bass, ritual chants]
Life is ending, hear the drums descend,
Black wings circling at the edge of the end.
Life is ending, let the silence sing,
All that we were fades into the ring.

Life is ending, no more dawn to chase,
Only the void with its ancient face.
Life is ending, the final flame,
Call out my soul and it answers the same.

[Bridge - stripped-back choir, distant heartbeat kick, spectral strings, haunted spoken chant]
When the last star cracks,
When the last breath breaks,
Will the dark still know
The shape that it takes?

I stood at the altar
And gave up the name,
Now the fire is a memory
Without a flame.

[Final Chorus - maximal dark cinematic climax, stacked choirs, pounding beats, heavy synth brass, ritual screams]
Life is ending, hear the drums descend,
Black wings circling at the edge of the end.
Life is ending, let the silence sing,
All that we were fades into the ring.

Life is ending, no more dawn to chase,
Only the void with its ancient face.
Life is ending, the final flame,
Call out my soul and it answers the same.

[Outro - fading choir, distant chants, decaying synths, reverb-soaked strings]
Ooooh...
The night has learned my name...
Ooooh...
Life is ending...
