[Title: The Kaeryn-7 Signal] [Intro – static / distant transmission / low drones] [distorted radio signal voices] ... 113_light-years... ...signal confirmed... ...repeat... ...do not translate the pattern... ( I repeat!..., do not translate the pattern!!) [distorted radio signal fade out] [Verse 1] From the dead observatory Under fractured winter skies They found a pulse beyond the dark A second set of watching eyes No language known, no human code Yet something in the waveform spoke A rhythm buried in the noise Like warnings hidden in the smoke Old machines began to hum Glass screens flickered green and white A planet turned beneath the void And stared directly through the light [Pre-Chorus] First it whispered Then it screamed Through every wire Through every dream [Chorus] The Kaeryn-7 Signal Still burns inside the black A voice that crossed a hundred stars And never wanted contact back The Kaeryn-7 Signal It knew that we were there We called it proof of life at first But found a warning in the air [Instrumental Interlude – glitch pulse / alien synth / heavy riff] [Verse 2] On the tapes the faces moved Not human, not completely known Frames of mouths that split too wide And eyes like static carved in stone The pattern changed in warning loops Eleven marks beneath the tone Like something trapped behind the noise That did not want to be alone Then every channel started bleeding Every dish was turned the same The sky itself became a speaker Calling out the station’s name [Pre-Chorus] No one slept No one prayed The signal fed The signal stayed [Chorus] The Kaeryn-7 Signal Still burns inside the black A voice that crossed a hundred stars And never wanted contact back The Kaeryn-7 Signal It knew that we were there We called it proof of life at first But found a warning in the air [Bridge – spoken / whispered / analog distortion] Archive note: Transmission Pattern 11 Do not decode Do not repeat Do not send response It is not a message. It is a breach. [Breakdown – crushing / mechanical] No signal returned No vessel came home Only the tapes And the frozen tone No signal returned No answers, no light Only the thing Still awake in the night [Final Chorus] The Kaeryn-7 Signal Now lives inside the sound In every screen and every wire In every place the dead are found The Kaeryn-7 Signal Was never sent for peace It crossed the dark to warn us all Of something we should never reach [Outro – static / dying transmission] ...if you hear this... ...turn away from the screen... ...it can see through the signal...
