ACT II – Pride’s Edge
Verse I Voices cut the open air Shadows circle close to flame I stand fast, unbroken still Fire answers fire again
Steps align along the edge Breath held deep, the moment bends One heartbeat out of time And nothing stays the same
Pre-Chorus Too close Too far The ground gives in
Chorus Pride Unbound and burning bright Pride The line I failed to see No blade, no vow, no final word Just the fall beneath my feet Pride
Verse II Stone and silence meet below A broken sound, then nothing more Eyes awake to what is done A truth that leaves no door
Hands are shaking, blood runs cold Innocence slips from my hold One breath lost to gravity And I am left to go
Pre-Chorus No time No ground To stand upon
Chorus Pride Unbound and burning bright Pride The line I failed to see No curse spoken, no intent Yet fate outran my reach Pride
Bridge No crown No claim No victory Only consequence Only me
Final Chorus Pride I carry into flight Pride The end of innocence Not fallen yet, but torn away The road begins with this Pride
