Witnesses of the Veil

Intro

Before your kingdoms

Before your wars

Before your prayers

We were here

Verse 1

The Darkness keeps its secrets

In an impenetrable veil

Where shadows stretch for centuries

Across a world you've never known

Empires rose beneath us

Empires turned to dust

We watched their crowns collapse

Into the silence they became

(And still we remain)

Pre-Chorus

The wind speaks in forgotten names

Nobody remembers

But we do

Chorus

We are older than your prophets

Older than your kings

Older than every story

You've ever dared believe

We've seen the rivers change direction

We've seen the heavens move

You call us external

But we are witnesses

Verse 2

The stars once sat above us

Like maps carved into fire

Drawing lines across the darkness

Only dreamers could decipher

Millions came seeking answers

Millions left the same

The shadows swallowed every question

And kept the truth

For itself

Pre-Chorus

Time feeds on everything

Except the things it fears
