Tiny Scale

(Verse 1) In the abyss where silence twists, I float, a speck in black, But in the deep, I dream of size, of bones that split and crack. I see them drift, those hollow men, above me, blind and weak, I long to be a shadow’s wrath, the terror that they seek. (Verse 2) My scales could crush the ocean’s spine, if only I could swell, A behemoth in the moon’s cold light, a nightmare from the well. I whisper to the whales at night, of hunger and of might, They say I’m mad, a fish too small to ever win that fight. (Chorus) I’ll tear the sky with silent screams, A whale of dark and shattered dreams. No longer bound by tiny scale, I’ll rise, a storm, I’ll never fail. I’ll tear the sky with silent screams, A whale of dark and shattered dreams. No longer bound by tiny scale, I’ll rise, a storm, I’ll never fail. (Verse 3) I feel the weight of water’s gaze, a thousand eyes that blink, They know my thoughts, they sense the shift, the moment when I shrink. But still, I dream of flesh and bone beneath a mighty tide, A fish no more, but something more—a beast they cannot hide. (Verse 4) They build their worlds on fragile sand, oblivious and proud, But in my mind, I twist and turn, a creature dark and loud. I’ll grow beyond this tiny form, a giant in the swell, And drag them down to watery graves, where only shadows dwell. (Chorus) I’ll tear the sky with silent screams, A whale of dark and shattered dreams. No longer bound by tiny scale, I’ll rise, a storm, I’ll never fail. I’ll tear the sky with silent screams, A whale of dark and shattered dreams. No longer bound by tiny scale, I’ll rise, a storm, I’ll never fail. (Outro) In the deep, where thoughts collide, and shadows softly weep, I’ll float alone, a phantom king, in oceans vast and deep. A fish that dreamed of breaking free, a whale of cold, dark art, I’ll haunt the seas, a ghostly god, with vengeance in my heart.
