Moka | Die With A Smile
This symphonic gothic metal piece opens with ethereal piano and somber strings, underpinned by subtle guitar and deep choral pads. The operatic female lead commands verses with powerful, vibrato-rich soprano lines and intricate harmonies resonating with cathedral-like decay. Choruses explode with cinematic orchestral surges, thunderous drums, and walls of crushing guitars, while gothic choirs bolster the sweeping atmosphere. Each section interweaves dark, haunting textures, with the vocal delivery slow, precise, and laden with tragic tension for maximal dramatic impact.

Lyrics
I never begged / I embraced the blade
Beautiful stillness / where endings are made
It's no longer "watch me burn it all with style"
it's "I already buried it... and sang at the funeral."
Roses on the floor / blood in the seams
Took every strike / but I stayed serene
Crimson-stained lips / but my crown never fell
Grace in the wreckage / I wore it well
They tried to bend me / burn me down
But I rise like smoke / with a sacred sound
Stillness in the hall / glass in hand
If this is the end / then it's what I planned
You prayed I'd fall / but I stayed divine
Laid my sorrow out / turned it into a shrine
Let the nightfall rise / let the poison sing
If I leave this world / I'll leave as a queen
Let them speak / let them lie
I wore red when I watched it die
Didn't scream / didn't fight
Just lit the wick and kissed goodnight
They don't see / never will
I found peace when I stood still
If I'm doomed / make it worthwhile
No more tears / I'll die with a smile
Cold porcelain gleams where warmth once lived
Empty rooms that hold what time won't give
You painted lies with such artful grace
While I applauded from my gilded place
War came dressed in the softest tones
Left me dancing through ruins alone
Should have bared my teeth when you played your games
Now I consecrate the ash / speaking your name
You prayed I'd break / hoped I'd crawl
But I sip still wine and outshine it all
Let the nightfall rise / let the poison sing
Still I leave this stage / divine
Let them speak / let them lie
I wore red when I watched it die
Didn't scream / didn't fight
Just lit the wick and kissed goodnight
They don't see / never will
I found peace when I stood still
If I'm doomed / make it worthwhile
No more tears / I'll die with a smile
Lace and rage in a deadly dress
Said goodbye without making a mess
You never saw the farewell I wove
Till silence wrapped around your throat
Candlelit truth / a final vow
No mercy left where love lived now
I don't forgive / I redefine
You wrote the act / but I owned the line
You prayed I'd break / hoped I'd crawl
But I sip champagne and outshine it all
Let the darkness rise / let the poison sing
Still I leave this stage / I'll leave as a queen
Let them speak / let them lie
I wore red when I watched it die
Didn't scream / didn't fight
Just lit the wick and kissed goodnight
They don't see / never will
I found peace when I stood still
If I'm doomed / make it worthwhile
No more tears / I'll die with a smile
The fire was mine to kindle and control
No desperate cries / no fury in my soul
Just silk and sorrow wrapped around my throne
If death arrives / let it find me whole
One final breath drawn deep into my chest
And on my lips / a smile at its best
You prayed I'd break / hoped I'd crawl
But I sip champagne and outshine it all
Let the darkness rise / let the poison sing
Still I leave this stage / I'll leave as a queen
Let them speak / let them lie
I wore red when I watched it die
Didn't scream / didn't fight
Just lit the wick and kissed goodnight
They don't see / never will
I found peace when I stood still
If I'm doomed / make it worthwhile
No more tears / I'll die with a smile
Don't mourn the real goth queen tonight
I wore the crown and I wore it right
With crimson lips and infinite might
