07) Song - Echoes from the Throat of the Crater

[Verse 1] A whisper crawls from molten sleep, Through the jagged mouth where titans weep. Cinders skate on a windless tide, And the echoes call from the other side. [Pre-Chorus] Hollow voices, soot-stained words, Drifting where the stars once stirred. [Chorus] Hear the echoes from the throat of the crater, A low hymn sung by the world's undertaker. They rise like breath from a buried choir, Heavy with ash and ancient fire. [Verse 2] The stone remembers every scream, Pressed in the dark like a fever dream. Its breath is dust, its tongue is flame, And every rumble speaks our name. [Bridge] Some say the hum is just the wind, Others swear it's what's within. If you lean close to the blackened rim, You might hear the world’s last hymn. [Chorus (Refrain)] Echoes from the throat of the crater— And not a soul left to answer back.
