A Star Wars story.

We were kids in the temple

Laughing under twin suns

You traced stars on my gauntlet

Said we'd always be one

Now it's ash in my armor

Burning air in my lungs

Every promise we made

Hangs like ships going down

I’ll be your Anakin

If you be my Padmé

Crash through every rule

Just to hear your heart say my name (my name)

From the light side

To the dark side

I keep falling farther

If I lose you in the fire

I’ll turn this love to Vader

Purple glow in the council

Judging blood in my veins

They keep calling it danger

You keep calling it fate

Clone war scars on my knuckles

You’re the calm in the rage

But I’m slipping

I’m slipping

Through the cracks of your faith

Obi’s voice on my shoulder

Tells me “kid

Step away”

But your tears hit like impact

And I can’t let you fade

I’ll be your Anakin

If you be my Padmé

Crash through every rule

Just to hear your heart say my name (say my name)

From the light side

To the dark side

I keep falling farther

If I lose you in the fire

I’ll turn this love to Vader

Blue blade

Blue blade

Sparks on the river

“You were my brother”

Now my hands just shiver (hey!)

Knees in the cinders

Still I reach for you

I’d burn a thousand worlds

Just to change your view

I’ll be your Anakin

If you be my Padmé

Tear the stars in half

If that’s what it takes to make you stay (to make you stay)

From the light side

To the dark side

I’m your fallen savior

If I can’t be your hero

I’ll be your Darth Vader
