[Intro – crackling fire, low synth pad]
The world is burning down to gray
The sun is fading far away
[Verse 1 – muted guitar, steady heavy beat]
Smoke is rising from the broken ground
Silence is the only remaining sound
I found you in the wreckage and the dust
Holding onto what is left of us
Your face is stained with shadows of the night
But in your eyes I see a flicker of light
[Pre-Chorus – building drums, rising intensity]
The sky is falling but I’m standing tall
I won’t let you stumble I won’t let you fall
Through the chaos and the bitter cold
You’re the only hand I want to hold
[Chorus – explosive guitars, soaring vocals]
I’ll look to you when the fire grows high
Underneath this bleeding sunset sky
When the walls come crashing to the floor
I’ll be the shield right at your door
In the ruins of what used to be
You are the only world I need to see
[Verse 2 – driving bass, gritty texture]
We’ve walked through valleys made of stone
Learning how to survive on our own
The embers dance upon the cooling air
I see the silver lining in your hair
Every scar is a story we survived
Just being here makes me feel alive
[Pre-Chorus – building drums, rising intensity]
The sky is falling but I’m standing tall
I won’t let you stumble I won’t let you fall
Through the chaos and the bitter cold
You’re the only hand I want to hold
[Chorus – explosive guitars, soaring vocals]
I’ll look to you when the fire grows high
Underneath this bleeding sunset sky
When the walls come crashing to the floor
I’ll be the shield right at your door
In the ruins of what used to be
You are the only world I need to see
[Bridge – stripped back, emotional piano]
Let the cities crumble into sand
As long as I am holding your hand
The end of everything is just a start
As long as I can hear your beating heart
[Solo – emotional electric guitar solo]
(Instrumental Solo)
[Final Chorus – maximum power, layered vocals]
I’ll look to you when the fire grows high
Underneath this bleeding sunset sky
When the walls come crashing to the floor
I’ll be the shield right at your door
In the ruins of what used to be
You are the only world I need to see
[Outro – fading guitar feedback, soft wind]
I’ll look to you until the end
My only love my only friend
