Lyrics
[Mechanical percussion, distant metallic echoes]
Stone above us
Stone below
No sky
No wind
Only silence
And something moving
far below
[Verse 1]
Cold blue light
between the pillars
Dust hangs heavy
in the air
Every corridor
looks abandoned
Every shadow
feels aware
Pressure plates
beneath the rubble
Hidden paths
beneath the stone
Ancient halls
without a master
Yet somehow
not alone
[Pre-Chorus]
Slow your breathing
Watch your step
The deep remembers
those who rush
[Chorus]
Shadows of the deep
Watching from the dark
Eyes of bronze and iron
Waiting for a spark
Shadows of the deep
Buried far below
Forgotten kings are silent
But their guardians still patrol
[Verse 2]
A distant grinding
Metal shifting
Echoes through
the endless halls
Something wakes
beyond the darkness
Something old
that never falls
Runes half-broken
Gears still turning
Centuries beneath the stone
No command
No living master
Yet they still obey alone
[Pre-Chorus]
Hold the lantern
Kill the sound
Don't let them know
we're here
[Chorus]
Shadows of the deep
Watching from the dark
Eyes of bronze and iron
Waiting for a spark
Shadows of the deep
Buried far below
Forgotten kings are silent
But their guardians still patrol
[Bridge]
Listen
Do you hear it?
Not the gears
Not the chains
Something walking
Far behind us
Heavy footsteps
Through the veins
Of a kingdom
long abandoned
Of a forge
gone cold and still
Yet somewhere
deep beneath the mountain
Its machines
remember still
[Instrumental Break]
[Final Chorus]
Shadows of the deep
Watching from the dark
Eyes of bronze and iron
Waiting for a spark
Shadows of the deep
Buried far below
Forgotten kings are silent
But their guardians still patrol
[Outro]
Stone above us
Stone below
No sky
No wind
Only silence
And something moving
Far below...
