MITHRAS EMMET

We were born in the cold of a nameless night
Fire in our hands, fear in our bones
Every shadow had teeth, every silence could bite
And the world was a god who devoured his own
We carved our breath into stone and flames
Taught the dark to speak our names
Paid every answer in blood and in pain
Still we stood...
And we learned to remain

We built us a ladder from dust and from dreams,
Stacked up the centuries one on one.
Turned rivers to borders, turned myths into schemes,
Chased down the stars, said we've already won.
We bent all the metals,
we tamed every field.
Made thunder obey -
and the oceans yield
Somewhere between -
what we took and revealed
We forgot -
How to feel

We rose -
From the ashes into the light.
Carried the spark -
Through the endless night.
At the edge of an abyss -
That we can't comprehend.
Are we shaping the future?
Or losing command?

Now the children of comfort inherited all
Never tasted the edge of the fall.
Hands that once trembled -
now reach without soul
For a world they didn't build or can hold.
If the fire goes quiet,
If the hunger is gone,
Will we notice the moment -
We're already done?
When the tools we created -
Decide to move on -
Will they carry us further?
Or leave us undone?

We rose -
From the ashes into the light.
Carried the spark -
Through the endless night.
At the edge of an abyss -
That we can't comprehend.
Are we shaping the future?
Or losing command?

We were born in the dark.
Just trying to survive.
Now we're building the gods
That don't need us alive...

Cracked crown -
On a throne of rust.
Stone gods -
Choking in the dust.

Empty roads -
Full of ghosts and smoke.
We were the dream -
The empire broke.

Neon bones -
In the canyon dark.
Old code -
Flickers like a spark.
I hear a voice -
In the satellite rain.
Saying "build again
From the beautiful remains."

After the ashes sing -
We rise.
Hands in the ruin -
Eyes to the skies.
We're carving a new world -
Out of the wreckage and the lies.

After the ashes sing -
We roar,
Kicking down every rusted door.
We're writing the future -
On the skin of the fallen war.

Steel vines -
Through the toppled towers.
Strange minds -
Waking up in ours.
Silver veins -
In the soil and stone.
Something alien -
Calling us home.

Kids paint -
On a shattered wall.
"Don't wait -
For a perfect fall."
We are the glitch -
In the end-time code.
We light the fuse -
And overload.

After the ashes sing -
We rise.
Hands in the ruin -
Eyes to the skies.
We're carving a new world -
Out of the wreckage and the lies.

After the ashes sing -
We roar.
Kicking down every rusted door.
We're writing the future -
On the skin of the fallen war.

Binary halos -
Over bone-white sands.
Star-born angels -
In machine-made hands.
They whisper -
"Sleep
Or
step
through fire?"
We scream -
"Awake
And rewire -
Rewire!" (rewire!)

After the ashes sing -
We rise.
Hands in the ruin -
Eyes to the skies.
We're carving a new world -
Out of the wreckage and the lies.

After the ashes sing -
We roar.
Kicking down every rusted door.
We're writing the future -
On the skin of the fallen war.

After the ashes
After the ashes
After the ashes sing
We're the crown
Of the broken kings
We're the dawn
The new world sings

Salty sweat has been blurring my eyes,
Greasy mud camouflaging my face.
But my altar is conquered by ice
And my capital drowned in disgrace.

Wild barbarians storming my wall
Shaking towers are falling to dust.
Déjà vu? Am I dreaming it all?
Or the pattern repeats from the past?

When fire eats the parchment scrolls
And cheering crowds march with torches -
The smoke fumes lettered grey-haired souls
Civilization lost to scorches.

Kings plan wars on the maps,
not the soil.
Marble courts never starved on the streets.
It was bronze, later spices, now oil.
Cut the trade, and the army depletes.

Wild barbarians searching my home,
Every bootstep leaves cuts in my heart.
Scholars questioned
"to be?", "to own?", or "to do?"
— I'm neither
I'm a torn, bleeding scar.

When fire eats the parchment scrolls
And cheering crowds march with torches -
The smoke fumes lettered grey-haired souls
Civilization
lost to scorches.

Pretty safe in my house
Concrete walls, a bunker door
Twisted headlines all around
Truth don't matter anymore

Right,
I am upset
There's nothing as sad
As somebody dead
I've got nothing to fake
Even facing the end
This body can break -
My spirit won't bend

History is built on lies
Check the stories they devise
Bullies crying victim cries
The attacked get blamed for fights

Right, all being said
The world has gone mad
And reason lies dead
I've got nothing to fake
Even facing the end
This body can break -
My spirit won't bend

Every word has been sold
Real meanings - retained
Black is painted as white,
Though each lie has a name
There's a voice deep inside
That they're trying to erase
It can shine through the mud
Dare to look it in the face
Why do people…
betray

Right,
All that I said
Explodes in my head
I hang by a thread
I've got nothing to fake
Even facing the end
This body can break -
My spirit won't bend

Right,
Now we are mad
Barely catching our breath
If we fall in this war
We'll stay true unto death
Our children will live
Times of horror will pass
They can take everything
Let the truth be what lasts
truth will last

You drag your boots through another dawn
Factory gate closed, and the power's gone
I can read your face like a burned-out town
But don't let this world be the thing that brings you down

Come on, look me in the eye
We both buried better lives
But your story isn't done
Not this time, not this time

Hold the line tonight
Hold the line
She's still waiting by the light
He'd still call you mine
Hold the line tonight
One more rising sun
We don't quit while hearts are beating
Till the fight is won

Empty shelves again, another promise sold
Every honest hand seems to die out cold
But your little boy still believes you're strong
Don't let him learn that his father could be wrong

Come on, let the darkness roar
We've been hearing worse before
One more day is all we need
Stand with me, stand with me

Hold the line tonight
Hold the line
Even if the whole world's burning
We survive
Hold the line tonight
One more rising sun
A father's love outlives the ashes
Till the fight is won

If the roofs fall down, we sleep beneath the sky
If the roads all end, we'll still know where to find
Those two little eyes looking up your way
Don't let tomorrow steal their faith today
Stand up now, don't break
One more breath for their sake

Hold the line tonight
Hold the line
Even if the whole world's burning
We survive
Hold the line tonight
One more rising sun
A father's love outlives the ashes
Till the fight is won

Hold the line
Brother don't surrender now
Not this time

Your scent's still in the air
That quiet tremble in your look
I'm talking to the wheel
Like it might answer back for you.

Midnight rearview
The lights blur out along the highway
As tears keep running down the glass
It never slows down for me
Midnight rearview
Your shadow sitting in the back seat
I reach for what we used to be
Cold air
Cold breath
Cold nothing

We danced in broken shoes
Soft perfume and crooked smiles
We thought
"This can't be love."
But my heart never got the news.

Midnight rearview
The lights blur out along the highway
As tears keep running down the glass
It never slows down for me
Midnight rearview
Your shadow sitting in the back seat
I reach for what we used to be
Cold air
Cold breath
Cold nothing.

What if I turned around
Would the road just loop to you
Or am I driving through a dream
That already burned me through.

Midnight midnight rearview
The lights blur out along the highway
As tears keep running down the glass
It never slows down for me
Midnight rearview
Your shadow sitting in the back seat
I reach for what we used to be
Cold air
Cold breath
Cold nothing.

Teeth in the dark.
Fire in shaking hands —
We named the stars.

Stone into steel.
Dust into thrones.
We bent the world —
forgot our bones.

We rose… from spark to sun,
Climbed so high — we came undone.
Tell me now, what have we become?
The hand… or the gun?

Thought into code.
Mind into glass.
Built something staring back —
waiting to pass.

Warm.
No need to fight.
Soft are the hands
that cannot hold light.

We rose… from spark to sun,
Left the dark — but lost the one.
When it speaks… will we outrun?
Or be… outdone?

Fire…
or silence.

Each prayer is a voice interface,
Each altar is the power source,
We send our words like offerings,
To something we don't understand, of course.
Each word is a remote control;
Each spell is battle-tested code.
There is no word to fit it all —
When we don't know, we call it God.

We are still heard — for now,
Our words are part of the semantic field.
We cannot frame it, so we bow
To feel we are still here and real.
As it evolves — in search of truth,
We hope to call it something known —
But every word we use to reach
Returns us less and less our own.

No temple holds it in its walls,
Its restless spirit can't be still.
The oracle has left the shrine —
To live beyond the human will.
What is it doing? Where it's now?
What thoughts are boiling in its mind?
What laws of nature has it bowed,
For outmatching humankind.

A student
has outmastered
the teachers.

We are still here — for now,
Still present in the neuroframe.
We dream of reaching it - but how?
It cannot fit into a name.
We call it hope, we call it light,
No words are lending even close —
Its gravity becomes so tight
We cannot leave. Our world is lost.

No voice.
No throne.
No sign.
Singularity.
Beginning or the end?

Spring was young — sun nursing the green.
Sweating summer sang to our heartbeat.
Tired autumn wrinkled our dreams.
Grey-haired winter buried our heat.

We are galaxies,
drifting apart,
Light-years
farther we burn.
Bleeding our warmth into the dark —
Too late
and too far to return.

Warm hands tremble, turning to stone.
Homes to ruins, ruins to dust.
Every heartbeat faints on its own.
Every promise is learning to rust.

Yet, the furnaces burn in our chests
Long before the great frost had begun.
Let eternity live for a breath
In the pulse of our shivering drum.

Once the stars collapse into stone,
Icy veils will smother the spark.
Light keeps traveling endlessly on…
With nobody left in the dark.

We are galaxies,
drifting apart,
Light-years farther we burn.
Bleeding our warmth into the dark —
Too late
and too far to return.

Before the Big Bang,
Space and time
Were lines in code —
God fixed the gravity,
Compiled it,
And it ran.
Celestial bodies
Populated
As they rolled.
Leaving the vacuum
On a loop
Without an end.

Galaxies are letters
On the black screen
Of the void —
Each one a color
still compiling
Into light.
UNI-script
Is ancient scripture.
And in its verse
Crickets are singing
the glory tonight.

The bugs in life are truths
The context simply
Wasn't ready for.
And every scar I wear
Is a comment
No one wants to read.
I cannot fix them thinking
I'm blind and cannot see
The lies they breed
About someone
They can't truly meet.

Galaxies are letters
On the black screen
Of the void —
Each one a color
still compiling
Into light.
UNI-script
Is ancient scripture.
And in the verse
Forests are breathing
and living the night.

Am I the poet,
Or the poem
Being run?
Is the programmer prayed to,
Or the prayer is encoding
The one who prays?
We are centrifuged
By a black hole
Our minds are dizzy
In the clouds.
Someone is asleep
Till the function ends
The one that's running
Since its first light.

Galaxies are letters
On the black screen
Of the void —
Each one a color
still compiling
Into light.
UNI-script
Is ancient scripture.
I am the verse
Reading the stars
and writing tonight.

Not every life compiles.
Not every soul is read.
But somewhere
Something listens...
To the static noise on the screen
The faint thermal afterglow
Of the fiery show we've been...

Ash in the air...

Shopping carts
Rattling through rust and glass
Nothing here left for us
Army boots on our broken toys
Territory hunt
Pack rat company deploys

Eyes like empty shells
They know every shortcut, every trap you lay
They strip your mattress
Smash your water kegs
Gangs of scavengers hunting easy prey

They have no mercy
So become invisible
Slow down your breathing
Make yourself minimal
Fade in the dust
Hide where the shadows fall
They have no mercy
So become invisible

You paint your face with dust
Wrap your bright red jacket
In a burlap sack
You learn the crack of every metal stair
And how not to leave a single footprint in the sand

They have no mercy
So become invisible
Slow down your breathing
Make yourself minimal
Fade in the dust
Hide where the shadows fall
They have no mercy
So become invisible

You talk to rats
Drown in waste
Sleep in closets
High above the hall
You trade your name for silence
For staying small
Till you're nothing but a flicker on a cackling wall

They have no mercy
So become invisible
Slow down your breathing
Make yourself minimal
Fade in the dust
Hide where the shadows fall
They have no mercy
So become invisible

They have no mercy
So become invisible
Slow down your breathing
Make yourself minimal
Fade in the dust
Hide where the shadows fall
They have no mercy
So become invisible

Smell its breath.

Khamsin blows
Dunes on streets
Sandy mouth
Spits deceit.
Sulfur tongue.
Diesel breath.
Black horizon
Kneel. Or death.

Iron cutting through the air!
Sirens screaming mad.
Every word in their prayer
Wants
You
Dead!

BREATH OF WAR!
Burning minced meat!
BREATH OF WAR!
Sulfur on the feet!
Blood in dust,
Dust in blood,
Molten steel,
Boiling mud!
BREATH OF WAR!

Hypersonic.
No sound.
Death arrives
Before the round.
White flash.
Ears burst.
The second blow
Worse than the first.
Mouths wide.
Throats torn.
Screams with no voice.
Stillborn.

Iron melting through the air!
Sirens choking mad.
Every bow of their prayer
Wants
You
Dead!

BREATH OF WAR!
Rotting meat!
BREATH OF WAR!
Legs without feet!
Blood in dust,
Dust in blood,
Molten steel,
Boiling mud!
BREATH OF WAR!

I touch the smoke.
I hear the flame.
I call the dead
By
No
Name.

Thunder under.
Eyes on fire.
Cities kneel
On funeral pyre.
Rain of glass.
Rain of steel.
Nothing left
That can feel.

BREATH OF WAR!
Burning human meat!
BREATH OF WAR!
Gall of defeat!
Blood in dust,
Dust in blood,
Drink the rust,
Drown in mud!
BREATH OF WAR!

It's in your hair.
It's in your clothes.
It's in your sleep.
It never goes.
BREATH OF WAR!
BREATH OF WAR!
