IN the past. was crack from A MAN NAMED JACK FROM

[Intro – slow, dissonant piano arpeggios, distant rain] (Instrumental Solo) [Verse 1 – muted piano chords, breathy vocals] Back when fog clung tight to Whitechapel’s lanes A shadow walked with bloodstained, calloused hands He carried a blade that never seemed to rest Hunting the ones the world had left unblessed [Verse 2 – piano melody warbling, faint cello hum] He called himself Jack, a name wrapped in dread Every alley held the words he’d left unsaid A task he swore he’d finish before the dawn Cutting through the dark till his rage was gone [Pre-Chorus – piano picking up pace, rising tension] No lock could hold him, no cry could reach the sky He moved like smoke, leaving only fear to die Each night he’d strike, a phantom in the mist Leaving broken souls where the streetlights kissed [Chorus – full piano chords, trembling vocals] He slit through silence till his urge was spent A ghost who walked where the innocent lament No mercy left in his cold, hollow chest Jack the Ripper’s curse would never rest [Verse 3 – piano turning sharp, staccato notes] The city slept while he carved his twisted art Every victim’s breath torn apart by his heart He’d vanish quick, before the first rooster crowed Leaving nothing but the stories folks would load [Pre-Chorus – piano building, string swells] No lock could hold him, no cry could reach the sky He moved like smoke, leaving only fear to die Each night he’d strike, a phantom in the mist Leaving broken souls where the streetlights kissed [Chorus – piano crashing, vocals breaking] He slit through silence till his urge was spent A ghost who walked where the innocent lament No mercy left in his cold, hollow chest Jack the Ripper’s curse would never rest [Bridge – soft piano, distant church bell] When the sun came up, he’d fade back to the dark Carrying the scars of every life he’d marred His task half-done, his hunger never sated A curse that would be forever debated [Solo – piano solo, dissonant and frantic] (Instrumental Solo) [Final Chorus – piano fading, vocals whispering] He slit through silence till his urge was spent A ghost who walked where the innocent lament No mercy left in his cold, hollow chest Jack the Ripper’s curse would never rest [Outro – single, lingering piano note, fading rain] The fog still clings to Whitechapel’s lanes The shadow walks again, when the moon remains
