Verse 1
I woke up in another war zone,
Hive city's burning on my phone,
Everybody says the end is near,
But that's what they said last year.
The sky is black with falling ships,
Static prayers on busted vox kits,
I'm twenty seconds from the drop,
And nobody told me when to stop.
Pre-Chorus
So paint my armor black and blue,
The galaxy's got nothing left to lose,
And if the Emperor can't save us now,
We'll scream it loud somehow.
Chorus
Whoa-oh-oh!
We're just bolter hearts and broken stars,
Fighting our way through endless wars,
Whoa-oh-oh!
Across the void, across the scars,
We're just bolter hearts and broken stars.
Verse 2
The Commissar says hold the line,
Like that'll somehow make things fine,
The Tyranids are at the gate,
And my squad's running twenty minutes late.
The astropath is losing sleep,
Chaos whispers through the deep,
Everybody wants a hero's name,
Nobody survives the game.
Pre-Chorus
So carve my number in the wall,
If Cadia can break, then we can fall,
And if tomorrow never comes around,
We'll make enough noise to drown it out.
Chorus
Whoa-oh-oh!
We're just bolter hearts and broken stars,
Fighting our way through endless wars,
Whoa-oh-oh!
Across the void, across the scars,
We're just bolter hearts and broken stars.
Bridge
And I don't wanna die on some forgotten moon,
Listening to alarms and a dying tune,
But the warp keeps pulling me away,
And everybody knows there's no escape.
The Angels fell, the worlds burned down,
The xenos laugh while we stand our ground,
So raise your chainsword to the sky,
If we're going down, we're going loud tonight!
Breakdown
Tonight!
Tonight!
For the Emperor tonight!
Final Chorus
Whoa-oh-oh!
We're just bolter hearts and broken stars,
Singing through the thunder of artillery barrages,
Whoa-oh-oh!
No matter who or where we are,
We're just bolter hearts and broken stars.
Outro
The radio fades into the dark,
A million souls, a single spark,
Forty thousand years and here we are—
Just bolter hearts and broken stars.
