[Intro] (Low choir, dissonant strings) In nocte… in silentio… orbis fractus… A thousand worlds collapse, The balance torn away. The silence is a verdict, The cosmos turns its face. [Verse I] We reach for stars that burn us, We pray to gods that never hear. Injustice carved in starlight, The universe is blind. Choir (beneath): Iustitia caeca est… [Pre-Chorus] Who will weigh the galaxies? Who will answer for the void? Shadows rule the heavens, And silence is the law. [Chorus] Cosmos unjust, the heavens deceive! Promises broken, yet still we believe. Cosmos unjust, the scales never weigh… And the stars look away. [Verse II] Every prayer ascends to nothing, Every answer turns to dust. We drown beneath the silence, But still our voices rise. Choir interwoven: Vox clamat… in tenebris… [Bridge] Opera-style solo: If the skies will never listen, Then we will be the storm. If no justice crowns creation, Then we shall carve our own. Choir (call & response with guitars): Caelum cadit! Ordo fractus! Caelum cadit! Lex mortua est! [Final Chorus / Climax] Cosmos unjust, the heavens deceive! Cast us in silence, yet still we believe. Cosmos unjust, the scales never weigh… But still we will rise, still we will rise! Choir soaring in counterpoint: Vox aeterna! Vox aeterna!
