[Verse 1] I am still pulling Thread by thread from my star When the light shifts And the silence breaks apart Wings without sound Descending through the cold They find me frozen But they find me
[Pre-Chorus] I cannot move But I can hear And what they bring me Is a truth I was not ready for
[Chorus] They say there is a name Above the name I knew A being at the edge of everything Who will not move Initium Finis Beginning without end He sees all things But calls none of them his concern
[Verse 2] They speak it softly Like the word itself could crack He is the first flame And the last thing after that He does not answer He does not descend He watches everything From somewhere beyond when
[Pre-Chorus 2] They tried to free me With all they had And all they had Was not enough to break this
[Chorus] They say there is a name Above the name I knew A being at the edge of everything Who will not move Initium Finis Beginning without end He sees all things But calls none of them his concern
[Bridge — quiet, reverent, then fading] They told me everything they knew Then spread their wings and went No rescue Just a revelation That the sky goes deeper Than I ever dreamed And I am small And I am still But I am not Finished
[Outro — sparse, just Pandora and her star] So I pull Thread by thread Slow as light across the dark So I pull The Dominions left But they left me with a name Initium Finis I know where the ceiling is now I know where to stop Asking for help
