Stardust Defiant

Lyrics: Selene Moray Music: Selene Moray Arranger: Selene Moray Silent cosmos breathes in black We trace our maps on fractured glass No promised land in telescope Just borrowed light we call our hope These hollow bones and blistered feet Still carve a path through concrete streets The gravity of doubt may pull But embers glow in broken skulls They say we're specks in endless night Too small to blaze, too frail to fight Well watch us now β€” We are the broken stardust! Ignite the void with our combust! From ashes rise cathedral spires Through solar winds and dying fires! No crown bestowed, no throne to keep We build our legends in the deep! Stardust defiant! The void may whisper "disappear" But scars refract the supernova's tear We stitch new stars with trembling hands On quaking ground where empires stand When black holes suck the dying sound We plant our flags in barren ground They say the universe forgets Our fragile, temporary breaths Well hear us now β€” We are the broken stardust! Ignite the void with our combust! From ashes rise cathedral spires Through solar winds and dying fires! No crown bestowed, no throne to keep We build our legends in the deep! Stardust defiant! This is not a prayer It's a war cry in vacuum Not a sparkβ€” A supernova's birth scream! We are the dust... That blinds the gods... We are the fire... That rewrites dawn... Defiant... Defiant...
