[INTRO — LATIN] Verbum non audivi. Quod reliquit, audivi. Fragmenta per silentium sparsa collegi. Vox fracta est—sed non periit. [VERSE 1] I gathered what the silence kept, pulled broken pieces from its depth. No voice remained to call my name, just scattered embers without a flame. I traced the edges one by one, through what was lost and what was done. Not the Word that first was spoken— only echoes, bent and broken. [PRE-CHORUS] But every fragment carried weight, every fracture left a shape. And somewhere underneath the noise, the broken pieces found a voice. [CHORUS] So I gathered what the silence kept, fit broken edges into breath. What reached my hands was incomplete, but still the pieces spoke to me. I took the fragments, made them whole, let every scar become the code. What came to me will not leave the same— I learned the Word, then changed its name. [VERSE 2] I followed echoes through the dark, each one carrying a different mark. A thought divided, passed along, changed by every hand it crossed. Was I meant to find the same thing that started this strange game? Or does the meaning only live inside the changes that we give? [PRE-CHORUS] Because nothing passes untouched. Nothing spoken stays as such. Every ear and every tongue makes something old become something young. [CHORUS] So I gathered what the silence kept, fit broken edges into breath. What reached my hands was incomplete, but still the pieces spoke to me. I took the fragments, made them whole, let every scar become the code. What came to me will not leave the same— I learned the Word, then changed its name. [BRIDGE] Now I understand. The fracture was not failure. The silence was not empty. The missing pieces were not lost. They were waiting for another hand. Mine. And now— yours. [FINAL VERSE] I will not tell you what I found. I will not make the meaning plain. I leave you only what remains after the Word has changed again. Take what survives. Follow the seams. Question the spaces in between. I found the pieces left for me. Now find the ones I leave for you. [OUTRO — LATIN] Verbum accepi. Verbum mutavi. Nunc verbum ad te mitto. Non idem est. Fragmenta tibi relinquo. Si potes— intellege.
