[Verse 1] The rain falls softly on the windows, leaving shadows on the glass. Another morning over Scylla, another footprint on the past. They came here dreaming of tomorrow, of fields beneath a clearer sky. And I have learned to smile and tell them every ruin gets another life. But some doors were closed for reasons, some roads were meant to disappear. And every step we take toward healing brings us closer to them here. [Pre-Chorus] So let the engines turn, let the first green branches grow. There are things beneath this world they were never meant to know. [Chorus] Beneath the ash, beneath the stone, beneath a century left alone, something still remains. And while they reach toward the light, we follow shadows through the night, searching for what time could never take away. Let them believe we're starting over. Some things were never meant to end. [Verse 2] New forests climb across the valleys, roots run deep through poisoned ground. Every year the air grows clearer, every day we venture farther down. They call it hope when rivers brighten, when another harvest survives. I watch the old roads reappear like veins returning back to life. There are marks upon the landscape I remember though I've never been. There are echoes in these ruins of a story buried deep within. [Build] Maybe every world remembers. Maybe nothing disappears. Maybe all we leave behind us waits in silence through the years. [Second Chorus] Beyond the green, beyond the grey, past everything that washed away, something calls us on. So raise the walls and clear the way, bring another piece of Scylla back each day, until the path is drawn. They see a world becoming whole. I see how close we're getting now. [Bridge] There was a time before the silence, before the poison filled the rain. A choice was made, a page was turned, and nothing here was quite the same. Some questions don't need answers. Some truths are safer left behind. So I'll keep my eyes upon the horizon and let them keep theirs on the sky. [Final Chorus] Beneath the ash, beneath the stone, the past has waited here alone, patient through the years. And now the lights return to Scylla, one by one across the dark, illuminating everything we came to find. They came to build a new tomorrow. I came to finish what we left behind.
