Where the Clock Sinks (Neon Echo Mutation)
[Intro] [Low vibrating drone] [Slow metallic percussive hits] [Distant echoing wind] [Verse 1] The last star is a guttering flame, A story with no one left to name. I walk the path where the light has gone, The final shadow of the final dawn. Everything you built was a line in sand, Sifting through the fingers of a frozen hand. [Background Vocals] It is done. All is one. [Verse 2] The clock is silent, the gears are still, The universe bows to a silent will. I speak in echoes of what has passed, The very first word is the very last. History is a scroll being rolled away, Into the dark of a permanent day. [Background Vocals] No more time. No more climb. [Chorus] Welcome to the end of the road. Lay down the soul, lay down the load. Terminus watches the curtain fall, The Great Conclusion of the all. Nothing remains but the quiet deep, Where even the memories fall asleep. [Instrumental Break] [Deep distorted synthesizer swells] [Slow rhythmic anvil strikes] [Cavernous reverb] [Verse 3] I remember the future, I forget the past, The only thing certain is the thing that can’t last. The void is a mouth and it’s open wide, With nowhere for the spirit to run and hide. The book is closed, the ink is dry, Underneath a starless, hollow sky. [Background Vocals] Finality. Gravity. [Bridge] [Vocals become a deep whisper] Step into the dark. Leave the spark. The circle is a point. The time is out of joint. [Long silence] Omega point. [Chorus] Welcome to the end of the road. Lay down the soul, lay down the load. Terminus watches the curtain fall, The Great Conclusion of the all. Nothing remains but the quiet deep, Where even the memories fall asleep. [Outro] [Slow fading drone] It is finished. [Background Vocals] Finality. Zero. [Deep industrial thud] [Silence] [End]
