[Chorus 1] At the crossroads, I see the way Every step I take shapes the prey I feel the pull, I feel the fight Tonight I choose, I own the night

[Verse 1] Thorned vines writhe along the stone Snapping, wet with rot and bone Green-black tendrils claw my boots Dragging moss and oozing roots Every step a battle made Every breath a choking blade Hands of wood and thorn grab tight I push through, I claim the night

[Pre-Chorus 1] I can’t look back, I can’t delay Every step I take, I claim today

[Chorus 2] At the crossroads, I see the way Every step I take shapes the prey I feel the pull, I feel the fight Tonight I choose, I own the night

[Verse 2] Two figures mirror every move Faces pale, too still to soothe Branches snap beneath their glide Whispers twist, I cannot hide Hands like ice reach, vanish, tease Echoes of mine that will not cease I keep my pace, heart drum-tight Every choice could mean my night

[Pre-Chorus 2] Whispers crawl, eyes blaze and stare But I push forward through the snare

[Bridge] Crossroads open, claws and fire Metal grinds, the air conspires A dozen shapes with teeth and flame Every step I stake my name Ground shivers, sky bends low I write my story, onward go

[Guitar/Violin Solo] [haunting, melodic, tense, flickers of playful menace]

[Verse 3] Jagged limbs scrape stone and bone Metallic spikes grind, sharp as stone Jerking, twitching, limbs misaligned Eyes like shards pierce through my mind Every path a trembling thread Every choice a step with dread I grip my will, skin crawling tight Tonight the crossroads owns the night

[Chorus 3] At the crossroads, I see the way Every step I take shapes the prey I feel the pull, I feel the fight Tonight I choose, I own the night

[Chorus 4 – Outro] At the crossroads, I stand and see Every path a part of me I feel the pull, I feel the bite Tonight I choose, I own the night
