[Instrumental Intro] [Verse 1] In the shadow of the spire, where the clocks refuse to chime, I wander through the ashes of a world that once was mine. The air is thick with echoes, ghosts of futures never born, Yet my heart still beats rebellious , tattered but not torn. [Pre-Chorus] They carved my name in stone, said my story’s met its end, But I’m clawing through the silence, raise my voice and scream again. [Chorus] I’m not dead yet, I’m not fading to the gray, I’ll burn against the darkness, chase the night into the day. I’m not dead yet, feel the pulse beneath my skin, I’ll rise where shadows falter, let the fight begin. [Verse 2] Through the labyrinth of memory, where the mirrors crack and lie, I trace the clouds of madness in a sky that’s bleeding dry. The prophets speak in riddles, their message never plain, But I’ll forge my own salvation in the fire of the pain. [Pre-Chorus] They changed my deeds to whispers, swore the world would forget, But I’m screaming through the static—I’m not finished with this yet. [Chorus] I’m not dead yet, I’m not fading to the gray, I’ll burn against the darkness, chase the night into the day. I’m not dead yet, feel the pulse beneath my skin, I’ll rise where shadows falter, let the fight begin. [Bridge] (Spoken, with rising intensity) Do you feel that? The tremor in the void? The spark that defies the infinite cold? I am the fracture in your perfect machine, The dissonance that haunts your sterile dream! (Instrumental swell, complex time signature shift) I’ll tear the veil, I’ll shatter fate’s design, The stars will spell my name before I’m left behind! [Final Chorus] I’m not dead yet, I’m the fire in the frost, I’ll carve my truth with lightning, no matter what the cost. I’m not dead yet, hear the anthem of my soul, I’ll climb the edge of chaos ‘til the heavens lose control. [Outro] In the shadow of the spire, where the clocks begin to ring. I’ll stand upon the ashes, raise my raspy voice and sing. I’m not dead yet… I’m not dead yet…
