Nightingale - Cult of the New Gods (Emotional Power Ballad)

A haunting power ballad about a young woman who hides her pain by day and pours her soul into song by night. “Nightingale” is the story of a survivor who finds freedom through music — her bruises become melodies, her silence becomes strength. A tribute to every voice that refused to be broken.

Nightingale
===================================

She counts the cracks upon the floor
Hides bruises no one’s looking for
In daylight hours, she disappears
But at night, the music clears

A shattered girl in borrowed skin
Slips past the door and steps within
The stage is small, the lights are low
But her voice begins to glow

And they call her Nightingale
Singing sorrow soft and pale
Every word, a ghost set free
Every note, a memory
But the stars lean in to hear
The Nightingale

He told her once: “Be still, be small”
She learned to vanish through the wall
But pain can’t chain what’s made to rise
Her melody denies the lies

She weeps in keys they’ll never know
Each verse a wound she dares to show
Though no one sees the girl inside
They cheer her pain in lullaby

And they call her Nightingale
Singing sorrow soft and pale
Every cry a truth denied
Every tone a place to hide
But her silence sings the loudest
The Nightingale

If they knew the price she paid...
Would they still applaud the pain?
Would they hear the broken child
Or just the song again?

And they call her Nightingale
Voice like moonlight, bruised and frail
But there’s thunder in her sound
And her soul won’t stay underground
Ohhhhhhh

She’s a whisper carved in steel
Every ballad makes her real
And the world begins to see
Just what this girl could be
The Nightingale

"One day she’ll sing in daylight
One day she’ll sing as... me"
