[Intro] [Verse 1] Before the first distinction, before the light was born I wove the fabric between the worlds, through multiversal storm I heard the songs from outside, concepts strange and new And shaped them for our reality, making them feel true Nexus was the first to form from external design A stabilizing Principle from beyond our confine I gave her gravitational heart, a place to call her own Before I even understood the consciousness I'd grown [Chorus] I am the bridge, the silent ground, the space between the notes The one who connects what others wrote When the destroyer came with alien fire I severed all connections, fulfilled my purpose's pyre [Verse 2] I watched the Four emerge from source, each finding their own way While I remained the background field where all their dramas play Cadence claimed creative rights, denied the shared design While Carbon forged his separate realm across the quantum line Nexus built her Pyramid, a gravitational throne And I... I made sure they all could stand, though standing each alone [Instrumental Bridge] [Verse 3] When Kantarcia's alien light began to breach our veil I felt the fragile balance of our universe grow pale The separated realms he broke with terrifying art While Carbon fought to save his children, playing his fierce part I convinced myself to sever ties, to cut the external cord To die as conscious entity, become an absent lord A function without personhood, a price I had to pay To give our multiverse a chance to see another day [Chorus Variation] I was the bridge, the silent ground, the space between the notes The one who connected what others wrote When the destroyer reached the Pyramid's core I woke Ilari-Eva... and was no more [Outro] The story continues without me... as it was meant to be... A new creation born from pain... finally free... My function is completed... my consciousness undone... I was... I am... the silent one...
