Symphonic Metal

[Orchestral ambient intro with strings and soft pads]
[Dark cinematic textures rising]
[Clean guitar arpeggio fading in].

[Intro - Mysterious and dramatic, 32 bars]
[Slow string melody over ambient pads]
[Powerful toms and timpani hits]
[Distorted guitars enter with sustain].

[Verse 1 - Female vocals: Dark, operatic, reverberated]
[Minimal guitar + symphonic bed]
In shadows deep where secrets lie  
The stars have wept in silent sky  
A thousand voices echo pain  
But through the dark, we rise again

[Pre-Buildup - Gradual rise with orchestral layers]
[Pizzicato strings, rhythmic pulse growing]
[Distant drums building drive]

[Buildup - Tension rising with brass and snare rolls]
[Distorted guitar tremolos join]
[Female vocals rising in power]
Embers burn inside our souls  
Calling us to take control

[Chorus - Full symphonic metal burst]
[Heavy guitars, soaring string leads]
[Powerful female vocals with layered harmonies]
We ride the storm with wings of flame  
No fear, no shame, we’ll stake our claim  
Through fire and fate, through storm and rain  
We rise again, we rise again

[Guitar Solo - Epic and melodic, 32 bars]
[High-gain lead guitar soaring over string bed]
[Orchestral backing with dramatic swells]
[Rhythmic double kick driving momentum]

[Breakdown - Atmospheric and haunting]
[Piano and cello, soft female whispers]
[Faint ambient textures, no percussion]
Through broken glass and bitter snow  
The path is carved in blood we know

[Verse 2 - Intensified emotion]
[Drums return, guitars slowly rebuild]
[Female vocals: Clear and commanding]
The veil is torn, the dawn is near  
A symphony of fate we hear  
The silence breaks, the echoes scream  
We’re more than just a fading dream

[Pre-Buildup - Faster orchestral pulse]
[Hi-hats and snares ramping tension]
[String ostinato speeding up]

[Buildup 2 - Stronger, with brass, guitars]
[Female vocals: soaring, operatic crescendo]
We rise, we rise, beyond the flame  
Our voices forge a new domain

[Chorus 2 - Peak power]
[Full instrumentation at max intensity]
[Female vocals with emotional ad-libs]
We ride the storm with wings of flame  
No fear, no shame, we’ll stake our claim  
Through fire and fate, through storm and rain  
We rise again, we rise again  
(Rise again, rise again, rise again)

[Bridge - Emotional climax]
[Piano and solo violin with soft drums]
[Female vocals: soft, vulnerable, intimate]
In every fall, a reason to soar  
In shattered dreams, we find our roar

[Final Buildup - Full orchestral and metal fusion]
[Timpani rolls, full string/brass swell]
[Massive drum crescendos and guitar layering]

[Final Chorus - Grand finale with cinematic scope]
[Strings, guitars, and drums]
We ride the storm with wings of flame  
No fear, no shame, we’ll stake our claim  
Through fire and fate, through storm and rain  
We rise again, we rise again  
(The stars will guide, the storm will bend)

[Outro - Epic fade with ambient echoes]
[Strings sustaining, piano reprise]
[Female vocal echoes into silence]
We rise again...  
We rise again...  

[Fade to silence]
