Stonebound Ark (Echoes Return)

Lyrics

The captain fell, the fire went cold
The living ark grew still and old
No wings beat through the ashen sky
No roar remained, no battle cry
The tides grew quiet, time stood stark—
And silence claimed the Dragon Ark

One by one, they closed their eyes
Not in death… but frozen time

Stonebound hearts beneath the deep
Ancient flames in endless sleep
Guarding embers, faint and dark—
Lost within the Dragon Ark
No voice to call, no hand to guide
Just echoes drifting with the tide
Till fate returns what time has torn apart—
To wake the soul of the Dragon Ark

But one broke free from stony chains
Carried fire through years of pain
Through distant skies and ages gone
It lived to see a different dawn
And in its blood, a memory burned—
A place forgotten… yet unreturned

A whisper carved in ancient flame
Calling out a hidden name

Stonebound hearts beneath the deep
Ancient flames that do not sleep
Through the ages, through the dark—
Still they call the Dragon Ark
No longer lost, no longer far
Guided by a living spark
The past and present now align—
To wake what’s buried out of time

Not the same… but not alone
Blood remembers what was stone
Through every scale, through every scar—
The old world lives in who we are
A distant roar… a trembling sea…
The Ark still waits… it calls to me

Rise again from ocean’s grave!
Break the stone, the sleep, the wave!
Let the ancient fire ignite—
Bring the fallen back to life!
No longer silent, no longer dark—
Reignite the Dragon Ark!
From ash, from time, from shattered spark—
Reborn again… the Dragon Ark!

A single flame… becomes the start…
Of waking every stonebound heart…
