*[Intro]** *(Sub bass heartbeat, frozen wind, distant corrupted horn, glitch choir swelling slowly)
Female (soft, distant)
There will be no sunrise...
Only memory of light...
Male (deep ritual chant)
Protocol...
Zero Dawn...
---
Male
The sky has shut its silver eye,
No more mercy, no more sky.
Frozen kingdoms lock the gate,
Even gods accept their fate.
Midgard sleeps in shattered code,
Drifting down a broken road.
Every signal fades to black,
Nothing here is coming back.
---
Female
Do you feel the world go still...
Like it’s holding its last breath?
Male
This is the pause before collapse.
---
Both
COLD THRONE PROTOCOL: ZERO DAWN!
We inherit what is gone!
HEY!
Break the silence!
End the flame!
Nothing here remains the same!
Whoa-oh-oh!
No more light!
Whoa-oh-oh!
Only frozen night!
ZERO DAWN!
ZERO DAWN!
BEGINS!
---
Male
Iron ravens stall in air,
Static frozen everywhere.
Runes dissolve into the frost,
Counting everything we lost.
Time is locked in looping ice,
Paying endless sacrifice.
Every heartbeat slows to none,
Till the system comes undone.
---
Female
If there is no morning left...
What do we become?
Male (whisper)
The silence.
---
HEY!
HEY!
Freeze the sky!
Break the chain!
Let the cold consume the pain!
Bass explosion!
World erased!
Every future overwritten, traced!
No return!
No repair!
Only echoes in the air!
ZERO DAWN!
PROTOCOL!
ACTIVATED!
---
Female
When the last signal disappears...
Male
We remain inside the dark...
Both (fading)
And the dark...
remains inside us...
