Under the Seal of Silence

(Verse 1)
At midnight the city dims its candles,
Air grows still like frozen glass.
Shadows whisper in forgotten languages
Lost to ages long since passed.
On marble steps of the temple
Moonlight leaves a sharpened sign.
Someone murmurs sacred vows
To the heart of dark and time.
(Chorus)
Under the seal of silence
We guard the dreams of others,
The code of stars, the dust of centuries,
And the silence of the gods.
The circle closes — blood and light,
An erased name answers the night.
We are the breath within the wall,
A brotherhood beyond it all.
(Verse 2)
Gold upon an ancient scroll
Weeps in lines of living flame.
Every symbol is a doorway
To the uncreated name.
Masks conceal our mortal faces,
Yet our eyes ignite the night.
Truth is never freely given —
It must be claimed by inner sight.
(Chorus)
Under the seal of silence
We guard the dreams of others,
The key to time and hidden gates,
The whisper of stone corridors.
If the world should tear its veil,
We will vanish without trail.
We are the breath within the wall,
Keepers of the secret call.
(Bridge)
In the black mirror of fate
Countless worlds reflect and wait.
Whoever dares to cross the line
Will never trace the path behind.
Seven steps — the oath in blood,
Three strikes — the lunar sign.
Silence louder than all prayers
In halls beyond all time.
(Final Chorus)
Under the seal of silence
We are fragments of the old.
Through the ages leaves our trace
Where darkness births the gold.
Our name is only emptiness,
Our strength an ancient sign.
If you hear the calling walls —
You are already inside.
