[Intro - female whisper, left-right stereo, very close] Seven Gates Seven Gates Do you remember? The forum is gone The circle remains Seven Gates Seven Gates [Verse 1 - male voice, calm, dark, rhythmic] I found no door I found a trace A silent mark In a nameless place No stone, no key No temple wall Only a signal Calling through all Names became ashes Threads became smoke But under the silence Something awoke They spoke in symbols They spoke in flame Seven old gates Without a name [Pre-Chorus - male voice, rising tension] One gate opens Then another breath One light rises One fear meets death No map in my pocket No master key Only the question Looking back at me [Chorus - wide vocal, deep bass hits] Seven Gates Seven Gates Who opened them? Who built them? Seven Gates Seven Gates One by one They pull you in Seven Gates Seven Gates The forum is gone The signal remains [Post-Chorus - female whisper, airy] Die Tür war nie draussen Sie war in dir Seven Gates Seven Gates [Verse 2 - male voice, darker, hypnotic] The first gate guards the body Where fear learns your name The second turns the mirror And bends the hidden flame The third gate moves the current Where thought becomes a blade The fourth gate cuts the language From every spell they made The fifth gate hears the silence And silver starts to bend The sixth gate has no seeker No centre and no end The seventh gate stands open But no one lets you through It only answers softly When the watcher becomes you [Pre-Chorus - more urgent, drums tighter] One gate opens Then another breath One light rises One fear meets death No map in my pocket No master key Only the question Looking back at me [Chorus - stronger, cinematic] Seven Gates Seven Gates Who opened them? Who built them? Seven Gates Seven Gates One by one They pull you in Seven Gates Seven Gates The forum is gone The signal remains [Bridge - breakdown, sparse beat, male spoken voice] Seven fires in the body Seven colours in the light Seven laws in the hidden Seven steps into sight I searched the forum The forum searched me I followed the signal The signal followed me Maybe the gates were never stone Maybe the gates were never sky Maybe the gates were always waiting Behind the watcher’s eye [Bridge - female whisper, layered] Who watches? Who watches? Who watches? [Bridge - male spoken, German, calm and direct] Kein Meister Kein Tempel Kein Schloss Kein Schlüssel Nur du Und die Frage [Build-Up - rising synths, heartbeat bass] No map No guide No master key Just breath Just will Just sight unseen Seven Gates Seven Gates [Final Chorus - full energy, wide, ritual feeling] Seven Gates Seven Gates The forum is gone The signal remains Seven Gates Seven Gates The doors were never locked Seven Gates Seven Gates The seventh gate was waiting Inside your own mind [Outro - female whisper, fading] The door is gone The screen is gone The forum is gone The circle remains The signal remains Seven Gates Seven Gates
