Starlight Brigade

When I look up at the sky

What meets my eyes?

Can I just stand by

While the world dies?

(While the world dies)

A starship idling nearby

Is it my time?

I crawled inside and turned the cockpit clockwise

Toward the sunrise

I hear a voice in the back of my head

Screaming: This is suicide! Did you hear what I said?

But then it fades into nothing

With the rest of the light and sound

I’m on my way out!

Lift off!

The firestorm ignites

Last thoughts of a life by candlelight

Inside this speeding satellite

Halfway between the black and gray

Is no place for a life to waste away

I’ll take the road with all the stakes

Today, so many moons away

I safely say

That my heart’s true calling was never betrayed

Arrays of enemies await

But fears allay

We stand as one

A bond beyond the vast wave

Until the last grave

The mission orders typed and lights up our screens

Ignition flights

A thousand minds move simultaneously

Into the night a fleet of firelight jet engines scream

Turn the key

This is my destiny!

Last flight

I’d gladly give my life

For one night as a justice acolyte

Light shines only for the blind

Escape the endless dream of space

Black seas that I can’t navigate

Locate the great starlight brigade

We have come so far (so, so far)

Beyond the most distant star (woah, yeah)

Starlight within will guide (woah, yeah)

Us to the other side (woah, yeah)

(Whoa, yeah)

Lift off!

The firestorm ignites

Last thoughts of a life by candlelight

Inside this speeding satellite (whoa, yeah)

Halfway between the black and gray

Is no place for a life to waste away

I’ll take the road with all the stakes (starlight brigade)

Black knights and dark side battle cries

All die once they’re in my line of sight

This fight is all I know that’s right (whoa, yeah)

No fate but that of which we make

Noble as the oath we undertake

We are the great starlight brigade!
