Thunder rends the veil of sleeping skies
The trembling earth in darkness sighs
The vow ascends from broken ground
Through shifting air, a voiceless sound
A shadow bends where daylight fled
The distant gleam turns rusted red
Steps awaken what dreams concealed
The path unfolds and world revealed
Horizons twist, foundations lean
The old design dissolves unseen
Through currents thick and towering spires
The world exhales in molten choirs
Shards of memory blaze and fall
A solemn oath through lifeless hall
Under the breath of iron reign
A will remains through ash and vein
Horizons twist, foundations lean
The old design dissolves unseen
Through currents thick and towering spires
The world exhales in molten choirs
Each fleeting shape, tenuous hue
Becomes the mark I'm passing through
The pulse grows louder, beat austere
A word unspoken forging near
