Sky on Fire

Verse 1

Concrete cracks

Beneath my boots I feel the metal scream

Ripping through the rain

Blood on the ledge where the ghost once stood

Still breathing heavy

Still the king of this graveyard dirt

Chorus

Last man standing in the crater line

Iron lungs and the sulfur wine

Burned out rockets in the smoke

Arc raider alive while the city broke

I am coming home

To the Speranza stone

To the golden throne

Post-Chorus

Home

Home

Waiting for me

Far from the fire

Verse 2

Jet flames roar

He is diving down from the hollow heights

Tearing through the sky

Wings of tin and a heart made of hate

Launchers lock on target

Lock on the runner in the gutter mud

No place to hide now

Only the shadows and the lead pipe rain

Chorus

Last man standing in the crater line

Iron lungs and the sulfur wine

Burned out rockets in the smoke

Arc raider alive while the city broke

I am coming home

To the Speranza stone

To the golden throne

Bridge

Run till the lungs quit

Run till the knees crack

Run till the stars fall

Sky is turning white

Orbiter is waking up

Counting down the death

Deep inside the buried hall

Final engine pull

Guitar Solo

Chorus

Last man standing in the crater line

Iron lungs and the sulfur wine

Burned out rockets in the smoke

Arc raider alive while the city broke

I am coming home

To the Speranza stone

To the golden throne

Outro

Board the metal beast

Before the light wipes the slate

Speranza

My home

Speranza

The heat is rising now

(Screams and explosions fade)
