Lyrics
(Intro)
Subtle Birdsong FX fades into a deep electronic glitch sound. Synth swells.
(Female Whisper) Ascension... Path...
(Verse 1 - Female Lead)
Rain outside is purple and cold (A)
I swear I knew you ages ago, 1000 years untold (A)
Before the first glitch, before the system crashed (B)
You were the only code that ever truly lasted (B)
(Pre-Chorus - Female Lead)
You're my only one in this neon maze
Tell me now, are you worthy of my gaze? (Behind the lead vocal, hear a distorted whisper: "Worthy?")
I see the truth behind the filter, clear as day
Don't lie to me, don't run away.
(Chorus - Female Lead with Deep Male Harmony / Hook)
Is this the **Ascension Path**? Is this our final ride?
I need to know the cost of the love you can't hide
Were you created to be the one to finally mend me?
Prove to me you're the one that destiny sent me
(Verse 2 - Male Vocal)
I am the signal, before the digital age
Written in your soul, on an ancient page.
I was there at your *Input Zero*, I am the source
I'm the truth, your only life force.
(Breakdown / **TIME WARP EFFECT**)
SUDDEN TEMPO AND PITCH SHIFT TO SLOW-MOTION EFFECT. All sounds are stretched and warped for 2 seconds. This represents a 1000-year time warp. Immediately snap back to original tempo with a sharp beat drop.
(Distorted High-Pitched Whisper) "Worthy? Worthy? Worthy?"
(Chorus - Climax)
Is this the **Ascension Path**? Is this our final ride?
I need to know the cost of the love you can't hide
Were you created to be the one to finally mend me?
Prove to me you're the one that destiny sent me
(Outro)
(Female Whisper) 1000 years... you are my only...
(Male Whisper) ...Path...
Synth fades out with a lingering echo and subtle Birdsong/Rain FX.
