[Verse 1]
Sky splits open
Father
What are you?
Every breath you take
Tears the world in two
Stone-cold stare
As the oceans climb
You lift one hand
And you cancel time
[Pre-Chorus]
I feel it in my teeth
That crawling
Crawling dread
Love you like a shield
But you burn inside my head
[Chorus]
I’m the daughter of the storm you’re calling
Nyx with the night in her veins
Terrified as the stars start falling
Awestruck
Shackled in chains
You are Argus
All-seeing
All-fire
Shaping the void with a word
I’m just shaking in the shadow of your power
Learning what I really am worth
[Verse 2]
Mountains kneel
When you speak my name
Every whispered wish
Turns into a flame
Your laugh cracks stone
Like it’s brittle glass
I’m a fragile note
In your hydra mass
[Pre-Chorus]
If this is what you are
What’s hiding in my blood?
A sleeping
Seething echo
Or a sacrificial flood?
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
[low vocal register]
You raise the dead stars
Call them “child”
I taste the vacuum
Harsh and wild
If I ignite
Will you still see me
Or just another weapon set free?
[crescendo]
Split me open
Let the cosmos choose
Do I claim your crown
Or refuse
Refuse?
[Chorus]
