[Verse 1]
The last city burns in glass
Under Sol’s black scar
You and I stand at the gates
With the broken sky above
Ash on the transit rails
Blood on the launch deck floor
We heard the void come calling
Now it’s pounding at the door
[Pre-Chorus]
Raise the blade of dawn
Raise the knife of night
Hold both hands steady
When the void comes for the light
[Chorus]
Light in my left hand
Dark in my right hand
I will not fall
I will not break
Light in my left hand
Dark in my right hand
We burn the void down
For all we can save
[Verse 2]
Meteors split the harbor dome
Shadows swarm the hull
Pilots scream through ion fire
While the towers start to pull
Children in the shelter stacks
Count the blows like prayers
I can hear their small hearts shaking
Through the sirens in the air
[Pre-Chorus]
Raise the blade of dawn
Raise the knife of night
Hold both hands steady
When the void comes for the light
[Chorus]
Light in my left hand
Dark in my right hand
I will not fall
I will not break
Light in my left hand
Dark in my right hand
We burn the void down
For all we can save
[Bridge]
I have walked through the eclipse
Wore the cold like armor
I know the shape of mercy
I know the taste of thunder
If the dark wants everything
Let it come and take its shot
I was forged in the silence
At the edge of what we’ve got
[Final Chorus]
Light in my left hand
Dark in my right hand
I will not fall
I will not break
Light in my left hand
Dark in my right hand
We burn the void down
For all we can save
Light in my left hand
Dark in my right hand
Last city standing
Last breath we take
Light in my left hand
Dark in my right hand
If earth goes to battle
We’ll make the stars shake
