Intro
No beginning.
No witness.
Only the sound before sound learns to pray.
Verse 1
The desert drank the final cry
No echo left, no reason why
The mirror cracked but did not fall
Just silence pressing through the wall
I walked beyond the painted door
And found the floor was still the floor
Chorus
Oh, the stillness after the serpent
Is louder than the scream
Oh, the stillness after the serpent
Is the only living dream
Not peace. Not pain.
Just the hum beneath the name.
Verse 2
The father’s face returned to sand
The mother’s voice — a severed hand
No throne, no sin, no sacred wound
Just breath returning to the tomb
The ritual burned, the ash remained
A shape the wind has yet to name
Verse 3
The cities rot without a sound
Their broken laws turned underground
No future scratching at the gate
No past that dares articulate fate
The language shed its human skin
And left no difference out or in
I called my name — it did not bend
Only the silence left to end
Chorus
Oh, the stillness after the serpent
Is louder than the scream
Oh, the stillness after the serpent
Is the only living dream
Not peace. Not pain.
Just the hum beneath the name.
Outro
Still…
After…
The serpent…
Still…
