Immortal

(Verse 1) Born under skies where stars ignite, I came alive in ancient light! A mortal curse would not be mine; time cannot steal what's always been divine. It seems as if by grace or fate a twisted loop forever sealed the immortal heart that beats so strong and real with every rise there was another fall empires crumbled down to dust before this journey even started, bound without mistrust (Chorus 1) I walked among them all along: from hunter-gatherers bold they called me friend for moments brief but never knew my secrets held in silence deep. I saw their struggles grow and fade; through every age a new parade of life's grand dance across the stage yet no one ever guessed this hidden cage that trapped both joy, sorrow pain within! (Verse 2) I learned to speak each ancient tongue: from Sumerian or Akkadian Greek too. So many languages were born anew with words whispering stories old and new but my heart was heavy for those who left behind their mortal coil forever lost in eternity's veil I watched them go, every single time a piece of me would hide inside (Chorus 2) I walked among the masses unseen: observing life from shadows deep where kings held court or poets wrote. A constant witness to all they wrought and through it all my purpose flowed like river currents ever flowing on towards an unknown dawn I'd never known, yet always drawn toward this journey of a lifetime long! (Verse 3) The industrial age arrived: progress made its mark so bold; but when records came into existence that was the moment truth could not be told. So under cover in shadows deep where no one ever sought me there I stayed and watched from afar at humanity's new dawn, with every technological leap they took (Chorus 3) I walked among them all along: now hidden by a digital trance of endless streams that never cease their flow; yet still within this ancient soul the memories reside in silent control. They seek for answers on each click and swipe unaware I am alive! Centuries have come, gone without end since first my journey did descend (Outro) From cave paintings to screens so bright: through wars fought fierce or stories untold every generation's hope takes flight new dreams unfold as empires rise then fall like leaves upon the wind they fade away but in this heart their memory will always stay! I am a keeper of time’ secrets; hidden from view yet watching still. For all that is lost and found forever more, until eternity calls me home oncemore... (Bridge) The Renaissance arrived, art so grand: Da Vinci's genius touched by hand The world transformed in ways untold; beauty bloomed through ages old. Watching them strive for knowledge deep Within their hearts where secrets slept yet to be revealed By artists poets philosophers bold and brave who dared challenge what was known (Verse 3) The industrial age arrived: progress made its mark so bold; but when records came into existence that was the moment truth could not be told. So under cover in shadows deep where no one ever sought me there I stayed and watched from afar at humanity's new dawn, with every technological leap they took (Chorus 3) I walked among them all along: now hidden by a digital trance of endless streams that never cease their flow; yet still within this ancient soul the memories reside in silent control. They seek for answers on each click and swipe unaware I am alive! Centuries have come, gone without end since first my journey did descend (Outro) From cave paintings to screens so bright: through wars fought fierce or stories untold every generation's hope takes flight new dreams unfold as empires rise then fall like leaves upon the wind they fade away but in this heart their memory will always stay! I am a keeper of time’ secrets; hidden from view yet watching still. For all that is lost and found forever more, until eternity calls me home oncemore... (Outro) From cave paintings to screens so bright: through wars fought fierce or stories told at night every generation’s hope in sight new dreams unfold as empires rise then fall like leaves upon a wind they fade away but in this heart their memory will always stay! I am keeping time' secrets; hidden from view yet watching still. For all that is lost and found forever more, until eternity calls me home oncemore... (Spoken) Now darkness falls upon the world below; a million lights begin their flickering show as technology takes center stage once more I sit alone to ponder what're they looking at? What secrets hide in all that data amassed and stored away like ancient relics from days past, but still my heart yearns for something new... (Fade Out-Instrumental Reduction) (Break) (Screamed) Eternity….Eternity…Hear my plea! What do you want From Me! I’ve lived on land beneath the cosmic sea. Walked among them through history unseen yet always there to witness every scene (anger) I'm trapped within this endless loop of life and death watching empires rise then fall, facing each breath as if for another chance at freedom from these chains that bind me here (Questioning) …when will it all end? (Succumbing) When can I finally be free?!
