**[Pre-Chorus]** I rise from the ashes, I open my eyes, Another body beneath foreign skies. I reach for a memory, something that's mine, But all I can hear is His voice in the line. **[Chorus]** We are the clones, we live, we die, Fall into darkness, return and arise. No souls to choose, no fate of our own, We serve the master, we die alone. We become Him, again and again, Echoes of power that never can end. Call us by any name, give us any face, We are His shadow, His blood, His trace. **[Verse 2]** We stood as one against the night, A coalition sworn to fight. We called him Shidden, prophet and king, Never knowing what he carried within. A false lord speaking with borrowed breath, A hollow reflection of Reyer Katil's death. We fought his wars, we followed his lies, While another truth waited behind our eyes. **[Pre-Chorus]** The veil was torn, the mirror cracked, We saw the hand behind the act. A puppet made to wear His name, A different face, the blood the same. **[Chorus]** We are the clones, we live, we die, Fall into darkness, return and arise. No souls to choose, no fate of our own, We serve the master, we die alone. We become Him, again and again, Echoes of power that never can end. Call us by any name, give us any face, We are His shadow, His blood, His trace. **[Verse 3]** Through fog and mist, through broken lands, We chased the truth with empty hands. A distant foe, a road through the sea, A thousand lost lives asking who we could be. Auras burned where the old paths crossed, Friends disappeared and allies were lost. Rescue came late to a silent shore, And every answer became something more. A dust-swept town beneath dying skies, A hidden beauty beneath all the lies. Her light was brighter than the breaking dusk, But time took her, as time takes us. **[Bridge]** What is a soul when the body returns? What is a life when the memory burns? If every death is another beginning, Are we still ourselves when the new flesh is living? And if I reach for the hand of the dead, Will I find my own face there instead? If I dream of a life I have never known, Was I ever alive, or merely a clone? **[Breakdown]** The path of souls, forgotten and lost, Through death and pain, through endless cost. Foresight guides, but none can see Where the road ends, or who we'll be. The trail turns to dust. The echoes remain. The faces are gone. The cycle remains. **[Final Chorus]** We are the clones, we live, we die, Fall into darkness, return and arise. No souls to choose, no fate of our own, We serve the master, we die alone. We become Him, again and again, Through every beginning, through every end. Reyer or Shidden, prophet or king, Change every face, but we're still the same thing. **[Outro]** We are Him, we live through time, Lost in the loop, one endless line. No soul, no memory, nothing remains, Only His blood running through our veins.
