Civilizations Decay

Verse 1

Digging through layers of time

Fragments of truth left behind

Civilizations decay

While modern minds slip away

Pre-Chorus

Deep in the ground we descend

Following paths without end

Breaking through walls of stone

To secrets yet unknown

Chorus

Uncover what lies below

Patterns of life long ago

Deeper we have to go

Till wisdom starts to flow

Verse 2

Scattered remains in the earth

Stories of death and rebirth

Decoding messages lost

No matter what the cost

Pre-Chorus

Deep in the ground we descend

Following paths without end

Breaking through walls of stone

To secrets yet unknown

Chorus

Uncover what lies below

Patterns of life long ago

Deeper we have to go

Till wisdom starts to flow[Bridge]

Piece by piece we trace their days

Through remnants of forgotten ways

Time has claimed what once stood tall

Now we must decipher it all

Chorus

Uncover what lies below

Patterns of life long ago

Deeper we have to go

Till wisdom starts to flow

[End][Guitar Solo]

Pre-Chorus

Deep in the ground we descend

Following paths without end

Breaking through walls of stone

To secrets yet unknown

Bridge 2

In chambers deep underground

Each layer reveals what we found

Breaking the code of those

Who left these tales untold

Chorus

Uncover what lies below

Patterns[Final Bridge]

Through sediment and stone we dive

Each artifact keeps truth alive

The deeper that we know to search

The more our minds begin to lurch

Final Chorus

Uncover what lies below

Patterns of life long ago

Deeper we have to go[Guitar Solo]

Final Bridge 2

The tools reveal their design

Each discovery realigns

What we thought we knew before

Now opens a new door

Final Chorus 2

Uncover what lies below

Patterns of life long ago

Deeper we have

Deeper we have to go

Till wisdom starts to flow

Extended Outro

Beneath the surface we'll stay

Until the truth finds its way

Every fragment we find

Reshapes the human mind

Time cannot hide the signs

That knowledge left behind

End

Outro Reprise

Still searching down through endless lines

Echoes of lives intertwine

The puzzle never complete

History beneath our feet

Final Verse

Dust settles back on worn hands

Yet curiosity stands

Relics we bring to light

Guide us through endless night

Outro

We dig as shadows grow long

Driven by questions lifelong

Unearthing the spirit of thought

In every lesson time taught

Extended Fade

Deeper we go, never slow

Truth rises from below
