Every Possible World

Every Possible World Episode 8 — Mirror Song (Stoltz / Frosch) INTRO — STOLTZ (low synth pulse) I chased a ghost through centuries A question none should ask A silent sphere of ancient light A future in the glass I turned the key of history I let the engine whirl And now the cracks are spreading through Every possible world VERSE — STOLTZ Seven fragments burning bright Seven echoes of my name Seven strangers living lives Inside a shattered frame I thought that I could measure time Reduce the stars to code But every door I opened Was a road I never chose FROSCH ENTERS (piano / theatrical energy) Oh Frederich… You look as though you've seen a ghost Or perhaps a thousand more VERSE — FROSCH I see kingdoms in the fracture Empires in the seams Every broken line of history Unfolding into dreams You call it chaos, tragedy A wound across the sky But every possible world Is a throne if you know why STOLTZ You don't understand What you've awakened here The balance of existence Is dissolving into fear FROSCH Fear? My dear Frederich… You built a universe of opportunity. CHORUS — MIRROR STOLTZ Every possible world Every terrible choice A thousand screaming timelines In a single human voice FROSCH Every possible world Every glittering fate An endless hall of kingdoms And I arrive too late? VERSE — STOLTZ Time was never meant for hands Like ours to rearrange The laws that bind existence Do not welcome human change Seven lives now carry The burden of my sin If the fragments reunite Perhaps the world may mend again VERSE — FROSCH Seven doors have opened Seven crowns await Seven paths of conquest Written into fate You speak of broken futures Of worlds that should not be But every possible world Is a gift… to me BRIDGE — DUEL STOLTZ You would enslave infinity FROSCH No. I would organize it. STOLTZ Reality is fragile A miracle of chance FROSCH Reality is clay In the proper hands FINAL CHORUS — OVERLAP STOLTZ Every possible world Is a debt I cannot pay A thousand lives collapsing Every moment of the day FROSCH Every possible world Is a stage beneath my feet A thousand crowns awaiting Every future I can seize FINAL MOMENT (music drops) STOLTZ What have I done… FROSCH (quiet, delighted) You opened the door. And I… get to walk through it.
