"Shadows of the Silent" | Full

**[Verse 1]** Like one laid to rest in the bed so cold, Grasping at fragments of memories old. In the valleys of life, his dust doth stir, As he gathers the shards of what once were. **[Pre-Chorus]** Through the sinuous path of his fading breath, Clinging to life, defying death. **[Chorus]** In the ink of night, his eyes still gleam, Catching the moonlight's silvery beam. With night-black ink, his vision sown, The feast of pain, now fully grown. **[Verse 2]** Echoes of silence in chambers deep, Where the lonely voids their secrets keep. Crabs blind, microbes in their extreme feast, On elements, in the heat, their power released. **[Bridge]** The pulse of night at the heart's command, Surviving extremes, in darkened lands. Life's wonder, at degrees so high, While I lament beneath the vast, starry sky. **[Guitar solo]** **[Chorus]** In the ink of night, his eyes still gleam, Catching the moonlight's silvery beam. With night-black ink, his vision sown, The feast of pain, now fully grown. **[Outro]** Thus he lies, the still and stark, A specter now, in the halls so dark. From life’s chaos, his spirit cries, A mighty rock ballad to the skies. **[Chorus]** In the ink of night, his eyes still gleam, Catching the moonlight's silvery beam. With night-black ink, his vision sown, The feast of pain, now fully grown. **[Outro]** Thus he lies, the still and stark, A specter now, in the halls so dark. From life’s chaos, his spirit cries, A mighty rock ballad to the skies.
