INTRO (Clean delay-soaked guitars. Soft synth pulse.) No screams here No fire Only corridors without end A pale electric twilight Humming through marble halls And somewhere far below the silence Gears turned forever. VERSE I They built their kingdoms out of questions Cathedrals forged from thought alone Astronomers with blinded telescopes Philosophers carved into stone Poets wandered endless libraries Dragging chains of unwritten lines Saintless prophets speaking softly To dead machines that measured time No punishment No salvation Only distance without decay PRE-CHORUS The ceilings stretched like frozen skies Covered in mechanical stars CHORUS Limbo Machine Dreaming without sleep Counting every human answer Buried in the deep Limbo Machine Cold and luminous Where all forgotten wisdom Turns anonymous VERSE II A child composed a silent symphony On ivory keys with missing notes A mathematician traced equations Across the inside of his throat Painters sketched impossible heavens Onto walls that would not last Every masterpiece unfinished Every future trapped in glass And through the chambers moved the caretakers Tall figures wrapped in silver wire Faces hidden behind blank mirrors Hands glowing faint like dying fire INSTRUMENTAL SECTION (Jazz-inflected prog section) [Fretless bass wandering beneath shifting odd meters] [Clean guitar harmonics echoing through cavernous synths] [Mechanical clicking becomes rhythmic percussion] [Whispered overlapping voices]: “Observe...” “Calculate...” “Repeat...” “No conclusion reached...” VERSE III I found a room of endless bookshelves Every volume marked UNKNOWN Inside each page were human memories Written in meticulous code A woman there with fractured eyes Turned slowly toward the fading light She whispered through electric static: “WE CAME CLOSE.” Then silence swallowed every word As the gears beneath us groaned PRE-CHORUS The stars above began to dim Like dying circuitry within CHORUS Limbo Machine Orbiting the void Where every search for meaning Ends partially destroyed Limbo Machine Cathedral made of frost No soul is ever tortured here Only endlessly lost BRIDGE Then the walls became transparent Revealing worlds beyond the haze Millions drifting through the darkness Like signals trapped between two waves I saw empires rise and vanish Faiths collapse into the sea All human knowledge flickering briefly Inside infinity And deep beneath the polished floor Something ancient started waking FINAL CHORUS Limbo Machine Keeper of the dead Archivist of all the thoughts Humanity once said Limbo Machine Silent engine choir A heaven built by human hands Without divine fire OUTRO (Soft piano and ambient synths) [Mechanical humming slows gradually] [One final clean guitar note sustains endlessly] A distant voice: “SEARCH CONTINUES.”
