[Intro – distant, whispered male voice] Can you hear me? Somewhere beyond the walls... Somewhere beyond the stars... [Verse 1] I watched the shadows crossing the wall, Like silent strangers answering a call. The clock was turning, but time stood still, A thousand voices against my will. I walked through rooms I used to know, Where all the flowers forgot to grow. And every face I passed along the way Was hiding something it could never say. [Pre-Chorus] And somewhere deep beneath my skin, A different world was closing in. [Chorus – emotional, soaring male vocal] Take me to the other side of silence, Where the stars remember who we are. Far away from all this empty violence, Beyond the reach of every falling star. I don't want to wake up in this dream, I don't want to drown inside the stream. Take me where the endless oceans lie, Beyond the edge of time... [Instrumental – atmospheric guitar solo] [Verse 2] The television speaks in tongues, Of broken dreams and loaded guns. The golden towers touch the sky, While underneath them people die. We built a kingdom out of sand, And called it progress, called it land. But when the final lights go down, Who will remember what we found? [Pre-Chorus] And somewhere deep beneath the noise, I hear the silence call my voice. [Chorus – stronger, layered vocals] Take me to the other side of silence, Where the stars remember who we are. Far away from all this empty violence, Beyond the reach of every falling star. [Bridge – slow, intimate, almost spoken] Perhaps the truth was never hidden, Perhaps we simply turned away. Perhaps the answers were beside us, But we were never there to stay. And if tomorrow never comes, If all the lights dissolve to grey, Will there be something left of us? Or will we simply fade away? [Final Chorus – emotional climax] Take me to the other side of silence, Where nothing has to be explained. Beyond the walls of our existence, Beyond the pleasure, beyond the pain. I hear the universe breathing, I feel the boundaries disappear. And somewhere on the other side... I know that I am still here. [Outro – fading male voice] Can you hear me? Can you hear me now? ...or is it only me? ........
