[Intro — almost silence, faint tone] …It should be louder than this.
Verse 1 — slow, measured
This is what remains of it Stone and empty air Every voice that once resisted… Is no longer there I expected something back An echo Even fear But nothing answers anything… And nothing answers here
Pre-Chorus — quieter, slower
I gave the word It was enough It always was before
Chorus — restrained, almost incomplete
And now—… Nothing answers anymore No voices rise No hands resist No sound remains to hold Everything obeyed the end… And left me with the cold
Verse 2
The walls still stand around me But they do not return my name Every space I used to bend Now remains the same No movement in the distance No shift beneath the air Even silence has no presence… It simply isn’t there
Pre-Chorus 2
I should feel it settle in This absolute control
Chorus
But now—… Nothing answers anymore No breath beneath the ruin No weight to be restored Everything has reached its end… And nothing answers anymore
Bridge — almost spoken
If all things fall before me If every voice is gone Then what remains to follow… What remains to respond?
Final Section — softer, emptier
There is no resistance There is no reply There is no one left to witness… There is no one left to deny
Outro — fading
…It should not feel like this.
