Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I heard them in the mountain rain
Voices tangled in the stream
Footsteps echo from the plane
Where silence ends the dream

Letters from a lonely mind
Words too strange for earthly men
Stars aligned and veils grew thin
The truths beyond the fen

[Chorus]
Whispers in darkness, calling my name
Tales of black planets and cold astral flame
I reached for the stars with a skeptic's pride
But found only horror the mountains would hide

[Verse 2]
He spoke of wings beyond the night
Of brainless forms in vats of steel
A pact with minds that mock the light
And trade the soul for zeal

His voice was calm, his hands were still
But something cold was in his face
A mask that flesh could never fill—
A hollow in his place

[Bridge]
They took his brain… they took his eyes
They mapped the dark between the skies
And now he waits in distant tombs
While his body walks these rooms...

[Chorus]
Whispers in darkness, drowned in regret
I saw the machines… I’ll never forget
They promised knowledge, eternal flight
But left behind a shell in night

[Final Verse]
Now I sit by the fading fire
Mountains black beneath the moon
I heard the voice that climbed the wire
And knew I’d learn the truth too soon

[Final Chorus]
Whispers in darkness, deeper than fear
They offered the stars… but never drew near
I write these words with trembling breath
For knowledge comes with colder death

[Outro]
Do not call up what you cannot put down.
