[Intro, Atmospheric] [Soundscape: Haunting pads, distant whispers, low sub pulse like a heartbeat.] [Vocal: spoken/whispered, glitch echoes:] “You can’t escape… what follows you…” --- [Verse 1, Soft, emotional] I see them in the silence, creeping through my mind, Memories like fire, burning from behind. I thought I left them buried, deep beneath the pain, But every step I’m taking, they call my name... again. --- [Build 1, Tension Rising] [FX risers, glitchy vocal stutters.] [Kick starts pulsing stronger.] [Vocal:] “I hear the echoes… I feel the weight… can’t run forever…” --- [Chorus, Anthemic, soaring] Shadows never fade, they follow me through the night, But I won’t run away, I’ll stand and face the fight. The darkness calls my name, I rise from where I’ve stayed, Shadows never fade… but I’m not afraid. --- [Drop 1, Stomping with Glitch] [Huge bass hits, metallic stomps.] [Vocal chop:] “Shadows… never… fade…” [sliced and warped.] [Layered with growls, glitchy synth stabs, and a haunting lead melody.] --- [Verse 2, Stronger, defiant tone] I dance among the ashes, I’m stronger than the past, Every scar reminds me, nothing’s made to last. The night can’t break my spirit, the dark won’t take my soul, I’m turning pain to power, I’m taking back control. --- [Build 2] [Faster snare rolls, layered synth risers, ghostly vocal echoes.] [Vocals: reversed/glitched, snippets of] “fade… afraid… fight…” --- [Chorus, Bigger, layered] Shadows never fade, they follow me through the night, But I won’t run away, I’ll stand and face the fight. The darkness calls my name, I rise from where I’ve stayed, Shadows never fade… but I’m not afraid. --- [Bridge, Breakdown – stripped, emotional] [Piano + reverb-heavy vocal.] “They thought they’d own me… but I am free…” [Slowly builds into soaring re-entry.] --- [Final Chorus, Explosive, anthemic] [Full instrumental, layered harmonies, epic synths.] Shadows never fade, they follow me through the night, But I won’t run away, I’ll stand and face the fight. The darkness calls my name, I rise from where I’ve stayed, Shadows never fade… but I’m not afraid. --- [Final Drop: Climactic] [Even heavier than the first — massive supersaws layered with dark bass growls.] [Vocal chop with glitch stabs repeating] “Not afraid… shadows fade… not afraid…” [Ends with a haunting echo:] “Shadows never fade…” [silence.]
