Ancient Reptile Decay (Extended 1)

Intro

Static in the soil, dust shimmering blue

Signals from the silence, broken scales in dew

Starfields are hollow, graves on desert plains

Reptile kings forgotten, coursing through dead veins

Verse 0

Waking in the wasteland, fruit rots in my hand

Ghosts on every mountain, kingdoms built from sand

Tasted bitter sugar, drank the water dry

Beneath the black horizon, only ruins lie

Verse 1

Skies crack open with thunder, shadows crawling slow

Bones of giants scattered, hidden far below

Wormwood in rivers, bitter past they drank

Serpent empires falling deep into the dank

Pre-Chorus

Silent signals warping through empty air

Remnants of a hunger too ancient to repair

Chorus

Ancient reptile, I'm buried in the dust

Sugar fruit decays, what survives is just rust

Alien soil under feet, planets fade away

Forgotten fossils sinking deeper every day

Post-Chorus

Sugar water dripping slow

Everything fades below

Verse 2

Ashes of the lords, silent thrones erode

Layers stacked with time, memory's heavy load

Carved in stone, secrets left out in rain

Echoes of the power, only hunger remains

Pre-Chorus

Galaxies above me, light years ache and burn

Rotting like the kings that never can return

Chorus

Ancient reptile, I'm buried in the dust

Sugar fruit decays, what survives is just rust

Alien soil under feet, planets fade away

Forgotten fossils sinking deeper every day

Post-Chorus

Sugar water dripping slow

Everything fades below

Post-Chorus

Sugar water dripping slow

Everything fades below

Post-Chorus

Sugar water dripping slow

Everything fades below

Bridge

Silent as a wasteland, drifting through the core

Reptile names forgotten, nobody keeps score

Fruitless generations, fading with the light

Galaxies keep spinning far away from sight

Verse 3

Hands deep in cinders, memories turn cold

Cosmic dust is choking stories never told

Built upon the layers, lords become the clay

Lost beneath eons, slowly washed away

Chorus

Ancient reptile, I'm buried in the dust

Sugar fruit decays, what survives is just rust

Alien soil under feet, planets fade away

Forgotten fossils sinking deeper every day

Post-Chorus

Sugar water dripping slow

Everything fades below

Sugar water... fading slow

Everything fades below
