In the shadows of forgotten cities
Time halts its relentless march
Streets empty and stark
Hold tales of light swallowed by the dark
Voices of the vanished call out through the ages
In these hollowed halls history's unwritten pages
Echoes of the absent in the silence they resound
In the heart of abandonment their stories are found
Windows like eyes staring blank
See the colors fade to gray
Walls once vibrant with life's mural
Now portrait of lay to lay
Voice of silence guides you all now
Voice of the teacher
Voices of the vanished call out through the ages
In these hollowed halls history's unwritten pages
Echoes of the absent in the silence they resound
In the heart of abandonment their stories are found
When those black eyes their stare in blood
See the fallen slaves to drain
As the dusk embraces this forsaken land
The past is wishing on the path of the prince of oblivion
Memories leaving harmonies
As the dusk embraces the forsaken land
The past whispers reaching out a hand
In the grip of oblivion memorie
