Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Cold stone beneath my fingers
Ancient markings worn by time
Faint traces of existence
In this sanctum so divine
[Pre-chorus 1]
As I trace these carvings deep
Something stirs within these halls
(Something stirs, something calls)
[Chorus]
The walls are speaking to me now
Centuries of voices crying out
Each stone holds memories of before
Time itself bleeds through the floor
Can you hear them? Can you feel them?
Rising up through sacred ground
(Rising, rising, rising now)
[Verse 2]
She stands among the pillars
Her reflection caught in rain
Reading signs of fallen empires
Every truth etched in their pain
Messages from ages past
Guide her through the dark at last
[Pre-chorus 2]
And the knowledge starts to flow
Through her veins like molten steel
(Like molten steel)
[Chorus]
The walls are speaking to her now
Centuries of voices crying out
Each stone holds memories of before
Time itself bleeds through the floor
Can you hear them? Can you feel them?
Rising up through sacred ground
(Rising, rising, rising now)
[Bridge]
Sah-kah-tey-ah-nah
Mey-ah-ley-ah-soh
(Vocalizing continues)
[Drums intensify]
[Solo]
[Guitar and orchestra interweaving]
[Final Chorus]
The walls have chosen her tonight
Guardian of memories divine
Each stone reveals what came before
Time itself bleeds through the floor
Now she sees them, now she leads them
Rising from the sacred ground
(Rising, rising, rising now)
[Outro]
[Orchestral crescendo]
[Final cymbal crash]
