This House of Silences

[Verse 1]
The staleness of the air inside the pyramids
Must have tasted just this way
But where those seekers found their chambers and their passages
We found a continent of graves

[Chorus]
I held my breath, afraid to speak
Afraid to let the balance shift
I felt my blood, my pounding heart
Here in this house of silences

[Verse 2]
Did the dead bury their dead in tombs beneath our feet?
Or were they scattered by the years?
At first I feared that we would stumble on leviathans
But only echoes met us here

[Chorus]
I held my breath, afraid to speak
Afraid to let the balance shift
I felt my blood, my pounding heart
Here in this house of silences

[Chorus]
I held my breath, afraid to speak
Afraid to let the balance shift
I felt my blood, my pounding heart
Here in this house of silences
