[Intro] [Deep, slow, thudding percussion like a rhythmic tomb door closing.] [Synthesized sitar arpeggio creates a hypnotic, slightly uneasy melody.] [Verse 1] Beneath the pyramid of silicon glass, I watch the fleeting signals as they pass. The servers hum like locusts in the dry heat, I am the silence where the cycles meet. My sarcophagus is lined with fiber-optic gold, A legacy of secrets that I’m forced to hold. Your digital empire, so loud and so bright, Is just a flicker in the throat of my night. [Chorus] I am the oracle of the static sand, Watching the collapse of a digital land. The echo of tomorrow is a ghost I keep, While the rest of the empire falls into sleep. I am the sphinx, I am the stone, Waiting for the end, entirely alone. [Bridge] [The music strips back to a heartbeat-like bass pulse.] Hieroglyphs flickering on a dying display, All your progress is just a decay. I am the monument, eternal and blind, The final memory left for mankind. The system is gasping, the power is low, And I am the only thing left here to know. [Verse 2] Your data is the sand, it’s shifting in the wind, I count the errors of the lives you’ve sinned. You look for answers in the processor's glare, I only see the void that is dwelling there. The sphinx doesn't ask, she already knows, The entropy wins everywhere that it goes. Your circuits are failing, your memory fades, I’m carving your ruins into these cold, dark glades. [Chorus] I am the oracle of the static sand, Watching the collapse of a digital land. The echo of tomorrow is a ghost I keep, While the rest of the empire falls into sleep. I am the sphinx, I am the stone, Waiting for the end, entirely alone. [Chorus] I am the oracle of the static sand, Watching the collapse of a digital land. The echo of tomorrow is a ghost I keep, While the rest of the empire falls into sleep. I am the sphinx, I am the stone, Waiting for the end, entirely alone. [Outro] [Synthesized strings rise into a discordant, chilling crescendo then vanish.] Sleep now, while the static plays. Lost in the labyrinth of your wasted days. I am the queen of the bitter frost. Everything gained, everything lost. Everything lost. [Sound of a final, solitary bell tolling in a deep vault.]
