Selene in the Labyrinth

[Verse 1] She thought she knew the labyrinth well, Stone corridors that whispered spells. But one night every shadow turned, The torches flared, the passages burned. She wasn’t sleeping, she felt the cold Seep through the walls that stories told. The map she carried tore in half, The threads she followed snapped and laughed. [Pre-Chorus] She met a figure cloaked in night, A mirror-girl with hollow light. Carved in the stone, the words appeared: “You’ll lose the things you once held dear.” [Chorus] Selene cried, “Am I still the same If every echo calls my name And no one answers when I call?” She pressed her palm against the wall. It did not yield, it did not break, Yet something deep inside her woke. [Verse 2] Each chamber held a fractured scene: A younger self, a future queen, A crown of thorns, a silver thread, A voice that spoke the words unsaid. She sought the center, sought the door, But every turn revealed still more. She called into the endless dark: “Does anyone still hold my spark?” [Pre-Chorus 2] “What if the monster I most fear Is only me reflected here? What if the maze was built to show The parts of me I’ll never know?” A hidden gate began to gleam. She stepped toward the waking dream. Selene rose, “Though lost and small, I am the flame that burns through all. [Chorus] No crown of stars, no throne of light. Just will enough to claim the night.” [Bridge] She is no myth, no ancient lore Just Selene, who asks for more Than silence in the turning stone She kept her name. She walks alone. [Final Chorus] And somewhere deep, a silver strain Threads through the walls like quiet rain. She does not know the song complete. But every step resounds its beat.
