Black Company, Part 2 (Daylight)

Prologue: Choir & Screamed Vocals

Clock strikes six, concrete veins below

Barren neon glare, shadows where we go

Empty wallets, coffee burns, blue-screen dreams collide

First train rattles, stooped backs, nowhere left to hide

Operatic Soprano

Before anger found its flame, before venom cracked the shell

She shuffled through the noise—one soul in corporate hell

Verse 0: Female Vocal, Riot Grrrl

Sign your name, eyes glued down, just another ghost

Managers barking, marching boots, dignity’s the cost

Shy girl counting staplers, scared to raise her voice

Stoned girl half asleep, never felt a choice

Locked in plastic chairs, morning haze on skin

Smiles stapled to their faces, hiding what’s within

Intro: Choir

Gray dawn, shuffle to the subway gate

Clocked in lives, weighed down as we wait

Steel-tipped shoes on concrete drums

March of the battered, grind becomes our lungs

Verse 1

Morning barks spill across the open plan

Stoned girl slouches, waiting out the scam

Shy eyes flicker past the cracked break room wall

Dreams get smaller every angry call

Boss lurking, coughing up the dust

Orders like thunder, promises all rust

Her venom sleeps, coiled in her grin

Crush the numbers, let the war begin

Chorus

Black company, razor in their words

Shy girl bolts, stoned girl stays unheard

Wicked engines burn, venom in their veins

She’ll ride the haze or carry all the pain

Post-Chorus

Run, run, run away

Fire in your veins, don’t stay

Run, run, run away

We won’t break today

Verse 2

Stacked files, broken wrists, the choking air

Fluorescent hive and a boss who’d gut you bare

Flash of courage, thin voice rings so bright

She vanished in a march, flickering from sight

Pre-Chorus

Fists on glass, spittle spray, cruel decree

Stoned girl gasps, memories like a shroud

One step, then two, falling out of line

Freedom spills, break your chains now

Chorus

Black company, venom in their eyes

Stoned girl stirs, tired of all the lies

Walk into the storm, she follows as she’s told

Riot blooms, even stone can break the mold

Post-Chorus

Run, run, run away

Marching through decay

Run, run, run away

Not another day

Bridge: Choir & Screamed Vocals

Paper cuts and battle scars, we tally every night

Zeroes in the ledger, smoke clouds left and right

Shy girl’s shadow flickers, exits through the fog

Stoned girl grabs her courage, roaring through the smog

Breakdown: Choir & Screamo

Chains crack, thunder cracks, riot in her bones

One last order, boss screams, but she owns her throne

Ash falls, name tags down, silence in the hall

Doors blown open, both girls break the wall

Final Chorus

Black company, ghosts of every scream

Stoned girl breaks, reignites the dream

No more hate, no more king or crown

March out blazing, never backing down

Post-Chorus

Run, run, run away

Fire in your veins, don’t stay

Run, run, run away

Freedom’s ours today

Outro: Choir, Screamed Vocals & Gospel

Stomp the ashes, broken heels on shattered ground

Sunlight breaks in, no bosses left to hound

Stoned girl, shy girl, both shadows fade to bold

March through ruins, torch the lies they sold

Raise your voice, let the walls remember pain

Chains forgotten, freedom pouring down like rain

All the girls, fists aloft, memories break the spell

This black company burns, ring the final bell

Drop

Hey hey, run, run, through the flames

Hey hey, scars become your names

Hey hey, run, run, nothing left but light

Hey hey, we survived the bite

Extended Outro: Choir, Screamed Vocals & Gospel

Bricks crumble, red tape ripped from the seams

Two pairs of boots stamp out wicked dreams

Under broken lights, the old kingdom fades

Stoned girl, shy girl—no chains left to evade

Sparks in the puddles, dust in their hair

Office ghosts scatter, freedom in the air

Marching out laughing, glass heels on steel

Victory tasted, every scar will heal

Hook

Burn it down, walk away, let the ashes sing

Burn it down, walk away, new day, new flame

Extended Drop: Screamo, Choir

Hey hey! Run, run, future ain’t denied

Hey hey! We build what they tried to hide

Hey hey! Run, run, hearts ignite tonight

Hey hey! Black company, lost the fight
