Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I wore the crown

Like a blade of fire

Sky full of screams

Fed my hunger higher

I reached for thrones

With a silver grin

I thought the world

Would let me win

[Pre-Chorus]

Oh, I heard the thunder call

Oh, I thought I'd never fall

Higher, higher

I was built to rule it all

[Chorus]

Starscream's lament

I took the sky

And lost my way

Starscream's lament

Now I burn in the ash

Of yesterday

[Verse 2]

I drew my name

On the face of war

Every broken oath

Wanted more and more

I struck at kings

With a stolen spark

But every cruel act

Drove me deeper dark

[Pre-Chorus]

Oh, I heard the thunder call

Oh, I thought I'd never fall

Higher, higher

Then the heavens locked the door

[Chorus]

Starscream's lament

I took the sky

And lost my way

Starscream's lament

Now I burn in the ash

Of yesterday

[Bridge]

Hear me now

I was made of pride

All my gold turned cold

On the night I died

No more wings

No more crown

Just a name

Spelling fallout down

[Final Chorus]

Starscream's lament

I took the sky

And lost my way

Starscream's lament

Now I burn in the ash

Of yesterday

Starscream's lament

Never to fly again
