Thorns & Starlight

[Intro – distant echoing chimes, soft warbling synth pad] Moon bleeds red through velvet clouds Shadows weave where no one crowds [Verse 1 – deep sub-bass, faint finger snap rhythm] Your horns catch glow of dying flame My wings brush skin like whispered claim We trace the runes that bind our kind A dance of fangs and velvet mind [Pre-Chorus – swelling atmospheric synths, building tension] The veil grows thin between the worlds Our blood sings words no mortal hears No need for lies, no need for pearls We know the cost of what we are [Chorus – layered breathy vocals, pulsing bass, haunting lead synth] Thorns entwine our skin tonight Starlight spills where we align Ritual of dark delight Two souls bound in endless night Thorns entwine our skin tonight Starlight spills where we align Ritual of dark delight Two souls bound in endless night [Verse 2 – muted piano arpeggios, subtle shaker rhythm] Your breath on neck, your claws on hip My kiss steals warmth from sleeping lips We drink the magic from the air A pact written in moonlit glare [Pre-Chorus – swelling synths, more intense bass pulse] The veil grows thin between the worlds Our blood sings words no mortal hears No need for lies, no need for pearls We know the cost of what we are [Chorus – richer vocal harmonies, intensified synth lead] Thorns entwine our skin tonight Starlight spills where we align Ritual of dark delight Two souls bound in endless night Thorns entwine our skin tonight Starlight spills where we align Ritual of dark delight Two souls bound in endless night [Interlude – swirling ambient synths, distant ethereal hum] (Instrumental Solo) [Bridge – sparse piano, soft vocal harmonies, intimate mood] We are not the ones to save We are the ones who crave The dark that hides the sacred flame The dance that bears no mortal name [Chorus – full layered vocals, climaxing synth and bass] Thorns entwine our skin tonight Starlight spills where we align Ritual of dark delight Two souls bound in endless night Thorns entwine our skin tonight Starlight spills where we align Ritual of dark delight Two souls bound in endless night [Outro – fading synth pad, faint chime echo] Moon fades pale to morning gray We vanish where the shadows stay
