01 Echoes of Tomorrow

[Verse]
They walk in shadows carved from stone
Lost in echoes they've always known
Their clocks don't tick
Their sun won't rise
They linger beneath unchanging skies

[Prechorus]
A whisper in the wind
A riddle untold
A spark in the dark
A hand to hold

[Chorus]
But here you come
A fire in your eyes
Burning through the ancient lies
You are the now
The bridge
The key
Yet you speak of what we’ve yet to see

[Verse 2]
Their words are relics
Their hearts are dust
They build their dreams on broken trust
You step like thunder
A storm reborn
Through their ruins
A future sworn

[Prechorus]
A voice like a bell
A world remade
A step ahead
Yet still you stayed

[Chorus]
But here you come
A fire in your eyes
Burning through the ancient lies
You are the now
The bridge
The key
Yet you speak of what we’ve yet to see

02 The Unseen Stage

[Verse]
A curtain of stars veils the night
Unseen
Whispers of galaxies paint a stage so pristine
Actors of fire
They burn in their cue
Yet here we squabble
Over dust
Over dew

[Prechorus]
The cosmos waits
A breath held tight
While Earthlings fumble in their fleeting fight

[Chorus]
Oh the play
The play
It’s written in the skies
But no one looks
No one lifts their eyes
The unseen stage
Where silence roars
While we bicker in shadows
Behind locked doors

[Verse 2]
A comet’s tail sweeps the celestial floor
Planets align
They rehearse once more
The black hole bows
A maestro unseen
Yet we wrestle with traffic
With faces unclean

[Bridge]
The galaxies spin
A pirouette divine
The script’s eternal
Older than time
But our hearts are tethered
Our gazes low
Lost in the mundane
Too small to know

[Chorus]
Oh the play
The play
It’s written in the skies
But no one looks
No one lifts their eyes
The unseen stage
Where silence roars
While we bicker in shadows
Behind locked doors

03 Curtain Unveiled

[Verse]
The curtain falls before it rises
Whispers echo in hollow disguises
A kingdom built on painted lies
Where truth’s a stranger in its skies

[Chorus]
But the masks will slip they always do
The play begins when the script is through
Step from the stage into the fray
The real story starts when we throw it away

[Verse 2]
Spotlight glares like a judgment’s stare
Yet shadows tell what’s truly there
Lines rehearsed yet voices shake
Every step a move they fake

[Prechorus]
They bow
They kneel
But who do they serve
A twist of fate or a bending nerve

[Chorus]
But the masks will slip they always do
The play begins when the script is through
Step from the stage into the fray
The real story starts when we throw it away

[Bridge]
Actors melt into the crowd
Costumes shed like a thundercloud
The audience gasps they’re part of the tale
No seats no stage no walls prevail

04 The Cosmic Stage

[Verse]
The curtain lifts
The void reveals
A stage of stars
A dance of wheels
Galaxies twirl
In solemn flight
The cosmos acts
A script of light

[Prechorus]
But hush now
Hush
The actors freeze
The props
They breathe

[Chorus]
The scenery stirs
It takes the lead
A forest runs
A mountain bleeds
The actors chase through endless haze
Lost in the maze
The cosmic stage

[Verse 2]
A chair sprouts wings
It takes the sky
A chandelier begins to cry
The script unravels
Words undone
A play of nonsense has begun

[Prechorus]
And hush now
Hush
The chaos sings
The spotlight swings

[Chorus]
The scenery stirs
It takes the lead
A forest runs
A mountain bleeds
The actors chase through endless haze
Lost in the maze
The cosmic stage

05 Gobbledegook Symphony

[Verse]
Behold the quibberquacks in their drindle-swoon
They flangle and flingle beneath the gloon
A sprockled fandangle of zibble-zoo

[Chorus]
Oh the clindle-cloof of the snozzle-bree
It mumbles
It grumbles
In pompous spree
Zorp and snorp
Oh can’t you see
The grandeur of our flobber-dee

[Verse 2]
The flummoxed grizzlethorpes they plunder the greeze
With glomulous pettiflap flapping the breeze
Their dangle-dops wobble in gleezified sneeze

[Bridge]
Grivvle me not with your snizzle-plume
For the whazzle of flonkers shall be your doom
Beneath the gloot of the drabble's spume

[Chorus]
Oh the clindle-cloof of the snozzle-bree
It mumbles
It grumbles
In pompous spree
Zorp and snorp
Oh can’t you see
The grandeur of our flobber-dee

[Outro]
So let us fandibulate in sprockled delight
Where the gloons and the glibbles cavort in the night
For the drindle-swoon calls us to its sight

06 The Last Word

[Verse]
A tower of words I built so high
Each one a stone to touch the sky
The echoes ring
They never die
I stand alone
My throat is dry

[Prechorus]
I must
I must
I must insist
No thought unsaid
No phrase dismissed

[Chorus]
The last word
The final sound
Let it fall
Let it pound
On this stage
I am crowned
The last word
The world unwound

[Verse 2]
The crowd has left
The lights grow dim
A yawning chasm starts to brim
No cheers
No jeers
No hymn
No hymn
Just silence clawing at the rim

[Prechorus]
I spoke
I spoke
I broke the seal
Now emptiness is all I feel

[Chorus]
The last word
The final sound
Let it fall
Let it pound
On this stage
I am crowned
The last word
The world unwound

07 Sour Milk Symphony

[Verse]
The sky hangs low like a velvet drape
The clock ticks slow in a gilded cape
Every step feels like a bell’s cold chime
Echoes stretch
Devouring time

[Prechorus]
Shadows dance
They claw
They fight
Even the sun has lost its light

[Chorus]
Oh the milk turns sour in the glass tonight
The stars bow down
Surrender their might
A bitter taste
A creeping blight
The milk turns sour in the glass tonight

[Verse 2]
Candles weep
Their tears run dry
Marble statues seem to sigh
The air is thick
It stings
It bites
A kingdom drowning in endless nights

[Prechorus]
The earth moans low
The heavens groan
All joy dethroned
All warmth disowned

[Chorus]
Oh the milk turns sour in the glass tonight
The winds lament
The clouds ignite
A silent curse
A woeful rite
The milk turns sour in the glass tonight

08 Right and Wrong

[Verse]
They wear their truths like iron chains
Heavy words but hollow veins
The louder they shout the more they fade

[Prechorus]
Justice whispers soft and clear
But pride is louder than fear

[Chorus]
They’d rather be right than see the light
Hold their ground through endless night
The mirror cracks but they don’t see
What’s right is drowning
Lost at sea

[Verse 2]
Their hearts are locked behind a gate
Keys of stone forged by hate
They trade the real for shadows and fate

[Prechorus]
The stars above don’t take a side
But they burn for truth
Not for pride

[Chorus]
They’d rather be right than see the light
Hold their ground through endless night
The mirror cracks but they don’t see
What’s right is drowning
Lost at sea

09 The Key to Paradise

[Verse]
We stumbled through the garden wild and free
With heavy hearts and broken prophecy
The fruits of wisdom rotted in our hands
Yet still we dream of promised lands

[Prechorus]
Oh
Do we dare
Oh
Do we dare
To hold the stars
To breathe the air

[Chorus]
If paradise opened its gates wide
Would we build a throne or let it slide
Would we plant the seed or burn the tree
The key to heaven’s not for hearts unfree

[Verse 2]
Our voices rise in hollow
Golden praise
But shadows creep beneath our sunlit days
We speak of love while casting stones
The key to paradise cuts to the bone

[Bridge]
What’s a key to those who cannot see
What’s a light to eyes closed willingly
Oh
Would we trade the flame for smoke
And turn the holy into a joke

[Chorus]
If paradise opened its gates wide
Would we build a throne or let it slide
Would we plant the seed or burn the tree
The key to heaven’s not for hearts unfree

10 Curtain Falls, We Rise

[Verse]
The velvet seats once held their claim
Now empty shells
A fleeting name
The spotlight bends
The script undone
A tale reversed
The play's begun

[Prechorus]
We wore their roles
Their masks of gold
But now the story’s ours to hold

[Chorus]
Curtain falls
We rise
We rise
Under the storm of knowing skies
Actors gaze
The tides surprise
Curtain falls
We rise
We rise

[Verse 2]
The boards beneath us creak and groan
A sea of wisdom carves its throne
Lines unspoken
Waves that teach
The shore is close
Yet out of reach

[Prechorus]
The ocean swells
The truth pours in
The stage is lost
But we begin

[Chorus]
Curtain falls
We rise
We rise
Under the storm of knowing skies
Actors gaze
The tides surprise
Curtain falls
We rise
We rise

11 When Love Finds You

[Verse]
I walked through halls of empty stone
A shadow
A whisper
Completely unknown
The world spun on
I stood so still

[Prechorus]
No eyes to meet
No name to call
No rise
No echo
No fall

[Chorus]
But when love finds you
It lights the air
It carves your name
It says you're there
You’re seen
You’re heard
You start anew
You only exist when love finds you

[Verse 2]
I built a tower of words unsaid
A kingdom of silence
A crown of dread
The mirrors cracked
The windows blind

[Prechorus]
No sun to rise
No moon to glow
No roots
No branches to grow

[Chorus]
But when love finds you
It shakes the ground
It breathes a song
A mighty sound
You’re whole
You’re real
The sky turns blue
