Granite Immortality
Create a haunting musical story where a piano and cello duet conveys the wizard’s lonely experiment, joined by wind chimes for the sound of the changing weather. Introduce electric guitar and deep bass as the wizard channels unnatural power, ending with stone percussion and low brass to evoke his transformation into rock.
Lyrics
Intro]
[Verse 1]
In a tower by the northern sea
I carved my will in ancient stone
The wind spoke names I longed to free
But power answers best alone
[Pre-Chorus]
Wind chimes singing through the change
Rain upon the mountainside
Something stirring, wild and strange
The veil grows thin, the worlds collide
[Chorus]
I called the thunder from the deep
I woke what should have stayed asleep
The earth beneath me starts to groan
Now I am bound to what I've sown
The price of magic, carved in bone
[Verse 2]
My hands remember elder words
That rolled like storms across the land
I pulled the lightning down in thirds
And held eternity in hand
[Pre-Chorus]
Wind chimes falling, one by one
The sky turns copper, then to gray
I cannot undo what I've done
The night devours all the day
[Chorus]
I called the thunder from the deep
I woke what should have stayed asleep
The earth beneath me starts to groan
Now I am bound to what I've sown
The price of magic, carved in bone
[Bridge - Building Intensity]
The sea rises
The ground breaks
All I've summoned
Now awakes
Stone to dust and
Dust to flame
I've forgotten
My own name
[Final Chorus - Powerful]
I called the thunder from the deep
I woke what should have stayed asleep
The mountains crumble to the shore
I am the storm forevermore
The price of magic, now I'm stone
[Outro - Cello and Deep Bass]
In a tower by the northern sea
Where wind chimes ring eternally
A warning carved for those who seek
What makes the earth itself to speak
