**Intro (whispered fragments):**  
"Slouching toward Babylon, listen.
Beneath the settling.
Small truths, rustle, take breath, emerge."

**Verse 1:**  
Corridors exhale their granulated testimony, each particle drifting through amber shafts
Carries fragments of forgotten ceremony, while light dissects the air in golden rafts 
Suspended confessions float in perpetuity, 
whispered by the weight of settled gravity.

**Chorus:**  
Dust left to speak of what we relinquished
Stories settle in forgotten corners 
When memory fades, hope's been extinguished  
Particles left recall ignored warners 
Drifting ordained through endless twilight's reign  
So much for truth when only dust still remains.

**Verse [Female Vocalist. No Male Vocals!]**  
[WOMAN] Sediment speaks in syllables unspoken, gathering tales where passengers once wandered
[FEMALE WOMAN SINGER] Time leaves its residue as faith lies broken, Yet every mote remembers what we squandered
[WOMAN SINGER] Microscopic archives drift through vacant space,  
preserving echoes of the vanished human race.

**Bridge (chanted):**  
In every corner where silence accumulates, the smallest witnesses congregate and wait, carrying secrets too heavy for wind, too forgotten for time to rescind.

**Chorus: (grander, symphonic)**  
Dust left to speak of what we relinquished
Stories settle in forgotten corners 
When memory fades, hope's been extinguished  
Particles left recall ignored warners 
Drifting ordained through endless twilight's reign  
So much for truth when only dust still remains.

**Outro (fragmented):**  
The dust is us... remember ,we are embers...  
Heading back to our true form
In the void we'll never warm.
