Scribe of the Dead

Verse 1

Ink runs dry beneath my iron skin

No tongue to speak

So the pages scream instead

Bones of ancient Earth I gather close

I catalog the dead who cannot rest

Every fracture tells me

Something I forgot

Something that I buried long ago

Pre-Chorus

Maybe Drusus knew

Maybe Loid could see

Maybe every word I write

Is a hymn for what we flee

Chorus

I am the keeper

Keeper of the halls

I am the seeker

Seeker of it all

The quill is my only voice

The only voice I own

I am the keeper

And I stand alone

Verse 2

Albrecht spoke of silence

Of things beneath the stone

I transcribed his terror

Line by bloody line

I never joined the rising tide

Never took the crown

So they marked me fugitive

Hunted through the town

Pre-Chorus

Maybe I was wrong

Maybe I should run

Maybe every archive

Burns beneath the sun

Chorus

I am the keeper

Keeper of the halls

I am the seeker

Seeker of it all

The quill is my only voice

The only voice I own

I am the keeper

And I stand alone

Bridge

I write I bleed I bury

Every truth I find

I write I bleed I bury

Leave no thought behind

(Leave no thought behind)

(Leave no thought behind)

Guitar Solo

Chorus

I am the keeper

Keeper of the halls

I am the seeker

Seeker of it all

The quill is my only voice

The only voice I own

I am the keeper

And I stand alone
