Lyrics
[Intro]
They put our faces
On the walls and the screens
Till the paint started peeling
And they called us machines
[Verse 1]
We were shadows on the tarmac
Names stitched on the back of a flag
Golden age, bright like a flashbang
Did the dirt, then they buried the tags
Every mission in the dark felt holy
Said the ends would erase what they’d seen
Till the news turned the cameras on slowly
And the heroes looked crooked on screen
Jack with the mask and the ashes
Gabe with a hole in his chest
Angela counting the seconds
Can’t stitch a halo to regret
Genji woke up made of metal
Looking down at hands he hates
Hanzo staring at an arrow
That he never can unmake
[Chorus]
Overwatch
We were more than a name they sold
Burned so hot
Till the halo turned to smoke and gold
Now the watchtowers empty
Every beacon going dark
I keep calling out for echoes
But I’m talking to the scars
Overwatch
I remember who we used to be
When the world
Still believed in what they’d see
Now it’s wanted posters, rumors
Ashes in the sky at night
I’m still holding on to fragments
Trying to pull you to the light
[Verse 2]
Tracer stuck between seconds
Laughing so she don’t break down
Lucio turning up the volume
Just to drown a grieving town
Rein huddled in a bar with his stories
Shield propped up by the door
Every toast just tastes like mourning
For the ones who aren’t here anymore
Fareeha wears her mother’s shadow
Armor heavy on her spine
Sombra reading all our secrets
In a thousand crooked lines
D.Va hides behind her emotes
Eyes red off the broadcast glare
Baptiste counting sins in a notebook
Like the pages might repair
And the omnic choirs pray
In the corners of the fight
Zenyatta humming questions
“Did we ever have it right?”
World screams for a savior
World spits on the same old name
We were built to break the cycle
Now we’re pieces of the blame
[Chorus]
Overwatch
We were more than a name they sold
Burned so hot
Till the halo turned to smoke and gold
Now the watchtowers empty
Every beacon going dark
I keep calling out for echoes
But I’m talking to the scars
Overwatch
I remember who we used to be
When the world
Still believed in what they’d see
Now it’s wanted posters, rumors
Ashes in the sky at night
I’m still holding on to fragments
Trying to pull you to the light
[Bridge]
[Beat drops to filtered piano and soft pads]
Winston alone in the shuttle
Staring out at a silent earth
Banana peel on the console
Just to prove he still has worth
Glasses fogged, hands shaking
As he scrolls through all our names
Every photo like a ghost
Every ghost still set in flames
He whispers, “Recall, recall” (recall)
Like a prayer into the void
Hits send, hopes it reaches
Every broken girl and boy
“Come back, we’re still needed
I can’t save them all myself”
Sends a signal to the fallen
To remember someone else
[Chorus]
Overwatch
Can you hear that distant call?
It’s the sound
Of a gorilla who’s lost it all
Still believing in the promise
That we swore we’d never break
Trying to pull us from the wreckage
Of the choices that we made
Overwatch
If there’s anything of us that’s real
Answer back
Let the silence start to heal
We were more than just a legend
More than faces on a wall
If there’s hope inside this heartbreak
We can rise out of the fall
[Outro]
[Drums fade, just piano and vocal]
We were heroes
We were headlines
We were wrong
We were right sometimes
In the quiet of the drop-ship
I still hear that broken plea
“Overwatch, this is Winston
Come back home to me”
