Epic gothic musical number in D minor at 72 BPM, opening with low trembling cellos, distant church bell, and whispering wind textures, then exploding into massive trailer drum hits (Taiko-style impacts layered with sub-booms and metallic braams). Begin with a fragile female soprano (Helen) over sparse piano and strings, intimate and haunted, then introduce a deep velvet baritone (Candyman) with dark orchestral swells and rising low brass. Transition into a full gospel choir with cathedral reverb, dramatic minor-key harmonies, and swelling pipe organ. Build into a thunderous cinematic chorus with stacked vocals, distorted bass drones, and pounding hybrid percussion. Add a layered overlapping quartet section (soprano, tenor, boy soprano, contralto) in contrapuntal lines over escalating drums and choir chants. Include sharp orchestral stabs, reversed cymbal swells, and rhythmic heartbeat pulses. Final chorus should be enormous and apocalyptic: full orchestra, choir fortissimo, brass blast

Lyrics
IMMORTAL FOR A TIME
(Helen)
See me in the dark shadows
Hear me on the wings of madness
Make them bleed for you
It was all for you
For you
(Candyman)
Helen…
You tremble like candlelight in my hive
They call me monster
They call me myth
But you carved my name
Into your ribs
You wanted proof
You wanted fire
You opened the door
To your own desire
I am the wound
You cannot close
I am the terror
You chose
(Helen & Candyman)
You are the writing on the walls
The name that haunts these hallowed halls
Come with me and we will die
Right before their very eyes
We will be immortal for a time
The pain is as exquisite as divine
[Instrumental – Massive trailer drum hits, pipe organ, rising choir]
(Helen)
I saw you in the mirror glass
Felt your breath upon my skin
If loving you is sacrilege
Then let the burning begin
Tear the veil
Split the sky
Let them watch
Let them cry
If legend is the price of love
Then crucify me alive
(Gospel Choir)
Blood remembers
Blood repeats
Every story in the streets
Honey sweet and honey cursed
Love is hunger
Hunger thirst
Saint or sinner
Bride or flame
Once you whisper
Speak his name
(Candyman)
Come with me and we will die
Right before their very eyes
(Helen & Candyman)
Come with me and we will die
Right before their very eyes
We will be immortal for a time
The pain is as exquisite as divine
Come with me let the pain give way to ecstasy
Come now and be mine
Come by the tonight
(Quartet – Bernadette, Trevor, The Child, The Old Woman)
(Bernadette)
This isn’t love, it’s delusion
(Trevor)
She’s slipping further from my hands
(The Child)
Mama says don’t say his name
(The Old Woman)
Names are doors you can’t command
(Helen)
For you —
(Candyman)
For eternity —
(Gospel Choir)
Blood remembers —
(Bernadette)
She is drowning—
(Trevor)
I can’t save her—
(The Child)
Don’t say it—
(The Old Woman)
Say it—
(Candyman, whisper)
Say my name…
(Helen)
Say it with me.
(Full Company)
You are the writing on the walls
The name that haunts these hallowed halls
Come with me and we will die
Right before their very eyes
We will be immortal for a time
The pain is as exquisite as divine
(Gospel Choir, underneath)
Immortal… immortal… immortal…
(child)
candyman...candyman....candyman..............candy.
