[Intro – Sparse Piano, No Beat] The shelves are gone The hands are dust But the stories drift Between the dark They gather light [Verse 1 – Sub Pulse Enters] Every spine unbound by gravity Every page released to night Ink dissolves into constellations Whispers turning white The cities fell in silent ash The oceans took the ground But somewhere in the hollow sky The written world is found [Spoken Fragment – Soft, Distant, Reverbed] “Every word becomes light. Every memory — a constellation.” [Verse 2 – Expanding Atmosphere] Dust becomes a galaxy Paragraphs ignite Wooden shelves in orbit now Burning soft and bright No flame can take a story No void can make it die They rise beyond the ruined earth And seed another sky [Climax – Strings Swell, Distorted Undercurrent] Let them float Let them burn Let them turn to stars Let the silence keep their names Etched in cosmic scars [Outro – Instruments Drop Away] One note remains It trembles slow A final breath of tone And in the drowned and endless sky We are not alone [Piano sustains… fades…]
