[Intro]
Desert heat
Empty sky
Two small moons
I don’t recognize
[Verse 1]
Sand in my teeth
Rust in my hands
Fixing old dreams
That will never leave the sand
Blue milk mornings
Same old view
All these suns keep rising
On a life I never choose
[Chorus]
Raise the blade
Cut the night in two
Binary suns break the silence
Something’s calling me from beyond this dune
I’m done with quiet compliance
If there’s a war out there
I’ll bleed to prove I’m more than dust and smoke
I’m the spark
Of a new hope (hey!)
[Verse 2]
Old man’s stories
Firelight eyes
Talking of ghosts
And a power I can’t define
Father’s shadow
Wrapped in lies
Burning farm
Painting vengeance in the sky
[Chorus]
Raise the blade
Cut the night in two
Binary suns break the silence
Something’s calling me from beyond this dune
I’m done with quiet compliance
If there’s a war out there
I’ll bleed to prove I’m more than dust and smoke
I’m the spark
Of a new hope
[Bridge]
[Instruments drop to strings and choir]
Steel wings screaming through the void
Planets tremble, cities destroyed
I see the trench
I feel the pull
“Trust yourself”
Heart is full
Static prayers
In my head
Hear her voice
“Save us” said
Close my eyes
Let it guide
Let the darkness
Miss this time (woah)
[Chorus]
Raise the blade
Cut the night in two
Binary suns break the silence
Hear them echo as the sirens bloom
I was born for this defiance
If there’s a war up here
I’ll fly to prove I’m more than dust and smoke
I’m the spark
Of a new hope
[Outro]
Burning wreckage
Shattered throne
In the silence
I’m not alone (oh yeah)
One small star
In the endless cold
But a single flame
Can swallow worlds
