COLOSSUS

V5.5

[Intro – Distant / Atmospheric] Beneath the ocean floor... Something remembers. A heartbeat... Older than the cities. [Verse 1] Black water rises The horizon bends A shadow beneath us Where the daylight ends Mountains of muscle Break through the tide A thousand windows Turn toward the sky The earth starts trembling The sirens begin Concrete is breaking The beast walks in No roar... Just thunder. No warning... Just the ground giving way. [Pre-Chorus] Look how small we became Underneath his shadow Look how fragile we are When the ancient wakes [Chorus] COLOSSUS! THE MOUNTAINS MOVE WHEN HE RISES! COLOSSUS! THE OCEAN BENDS AROUND HIS EYES! Buildings fall like grains of sand Fire follows every step he takes WHO MADE THE MONSTER? WHO LIT THE FLAME? We gave the earth our hatred... AND IT GAVE IT A NAME. [Verse 2] His footsteps open The wounds in the land Steel melts like water Beneath his hands Towers collapse Like forgotten bones The streets become rivers The rivers become stone He doesn't see kingdoms He doesn't see crowns He sees what we buried Beneath our own ground Poison in the ocean Smoke in the sky A thousand years of violence Now something has opened its eyes. [Pre-Chorus] He carries the weight Of a world that forgot Every wound we created Returns with a roar [Chorus] COLOSSUS! THE MOUNTAINS MOVE WHEN HE RISES! COLOSSUS! THE OCEAN BENDS AROUND HIS EYES! Buildings fall like grains of sand Fire follows every step he takes WHO MADE THE MONSTER? WHO LIT THE FLAME? We gave the earth our hatred... AND IT GAVE IT A NAME. [Bridge – Quiet / Atmospheric] Maybe he was sleeping. Maybe he was waiting. Maybe beneath the darkness... He was listening. To the engines. To the bombs. To the screaming planet. To the endless hunger of a species that never learned... WHEN ENOUGH WAS ENOUGH. [Build] RISE! FROM THE DEPTHS! RISE! FROM THE GRAVE! RISE! LIKE THE OCEAN! WE MADE THE WAVE! ONE STEP! ONE CITY! ONE MOUNTAIN! ONE BREATH! THE WORLD IS SMALL... WHEN DEATH HAS A SHADOW! [Breakdown] HE DOESN'T HATE US! HE DOESN'T LOVE US! WE ARE NOTHING TO SOMETHING THIS OLD! No anger! No mercy! No judgment! ONLY CONSEQUENCE! [Final Chorus] COLOSSUS! THE MOUNTAINS MOVE WHEN HE RISES! COLOSSUS! THE OCEAN BENDS AROUND HIS EYES! The skyline disappears beneath his feet The sun turns black behind his silhouette WHO MADE THE MONSTER? WHO LIT THE FLAME? We poisoned the world... AND THE WORLD REMEMBERED OUR NAME. COLOSSUS! THE EARTH SHAKES! COLOSSUS! THE OCEANS BREAK! He walks through the ruins And disappears into the rain... Leaving only silence... AND A WORLD THAT WILL NEVER BE THE SAME. [Outro – Distant / Slow] The water closes. The smoke begins to fade. The cities count their dead. Far beneath the waves... Two ancient eyes... Open again.
