Oh boy, this was a fun one. I went back and forth on what a song about the Frenzied Flame ending of Elden Ring should sound like, but the end result was a mashup of each idea, most fittingly of all. The song describes a world at the last state of its being, a "final kingdom" of chaos and flame as the Flame of Frenzy burns away everything old to lay the foundation of something new. The choices in Elden Ring are usually about fixing the order of the world, but in this case... the choice made is to burn it all down instead.

Lyrics:
[verse]
What does a frenzy require
But only internal fire
And the desire to explore the question
Where does the cycling end
Too slow and stalling again
I'd like to show you a true exception
[pre-chorus]
When all in all
The quest for perfection
Will fail and fall
Without all the chaos we need
As it breathes
And it feeds
So you'll see
[chorus]
You're gonna burn your lips
In this unnatural kiss
You'll feel the heat in your mind
And know the madness behind
You're gonna cut own your path
Here in the aftermath
Gonna dance in fire as the pain goes numb
In the final kingdom
[verse]
It's time
Searching for vessels to brand
There waits an embracing hand
That only asks for your flesh in service
Soon citizens of demise
The blazes melting your eyes
Will let your mind know a whole new purpose
[pre-chorus]
When all in all
The quest for perfection
Will fail and fall
Without all the chaos we need
As it breathes
Alive and free
So you'll see
[chorus]
You're gonna burn your lips
In this unnatural kiss
You'll feel the heat in your mind
And know the madness behind
You're gonna cut own your path
Here in the aftermath
Gonna dance in fire as the pain goes numb
In the final kingdom
[bridge]
Flames like the arms of angels
Will give up a sacrifice
A death but it won't be painful
Our kingdom of paradise
We'll watch the last throne fall
When chaos takes it all
[chorus]
You're gonna burn your lips
In this unnatural kiss
You'll feel the heat in your mind
And know the madness behind
You're gonna cut own your path
Here in the aftermath
Gonna dance in fire as the pain goes numb
In the final kingdom
