[Intro: Soft Piano and Violin]
In twilight's glow, where shadows blend,
An elder's tale begins to wend.
On death's cold bed, his body lies,
As ghosts around him start to rise.
[Verse 1: Slow, Solemn Guitar]
In this old house, my final breath,
I face the specters, dance of death.
A life once lived in sorrowed quest,
Now echoes in this heart distressed.
[Chorus: Choir and Orchestral Swell]
Oh phantoms dear, in night’s embrace,
Recall the past, each haunted face.
Of friends long gone, and love lost deep,
In ocean's maw, her soul did seep.
[Verse 2: Mournful Violin Solo]
Adventure called, I did embark,
Through storms of life, through voids so dark.
Yet misfortune claimed those dear to me,
In shadowed depths, their souls set free.
[Drop]
[Bridge: Organ and Whispering Winds]
A thousand nights, in cold despair,
The sea's cruel grasp, it took my fair.
Her eyes of blue, forever closed,
In briny depths, her fate disposed.
[Chorus: Choir and Orchestral Swell]
Oh phantoms dear, in night’s embrace,
Recall the past, each haunted face.
Of friends long gone, and love lost deep,
In ocean's maw, her soul did seep.
Of friends long gone, and love lost deep,
In ocean's maw, her soul did seep.
[Drop]
[Verse 3: Gentle Acoustic Guitar]
Now here I lie, on death's sweet brink,
With spectral dance, I start to think.
Though life's been harsh, and filled with woe,
To new unknowns, my soul shall go.
[Verse 3: Gentle Acoustic Guitar]
Now here I lie, on death's sweet brink,
With spectral dance, I start to think.
Though life's been harsh, and filled with woe,
To new unknowns, my soul shall go.
[Instrumental Break: Cello and Harp]
[A gentle, melancholic melody played by the cello, accompanied by the soft strumming of a harp, sets a contemplative mood.]
[Verse 4: Whispered Vocals]
The phantoms whirl in silent grace,
In their embrace, I find my place.
They whisper tales of yore and gloom,
Yet in their dance, I feel no doom.
[Outro: Fading Piano and Violin]
As dawn’s light breaks, I close my eyes,
With ghostly kin, my spirit flies.
To realms beyond this mortal strife,
Embracing now, the afterlife.
[Soft, gentle notes on the piano and violin fade out, leaving a haunting silence.]
