Red in the Dark

Breath in the chamber, doors slide wide

Red blade carving through the night

Black cape dragging where the cold winds crawl

One step, whole room pressed against the wall

Helmet like a warning, no face, no name

Turn a rebel's courage into ash and flame

I was born in fire, rebuilt in steel

Every broken piece taught me how to feel

You can pray to your masters, send your fleet

I make the stars go quiet when I speak

Hear that engine through the iron floor

You had one chance, now you have no more

I bring the force, make the whole ship freeze

Red in the dark, down on your knees

No throne, no crown, just a vow I defend

Fear in the hall when the black mask bends

I bring the force, let the cold air fall

One name travels through them all

From the ashes I rise, from the silence I steer

You can run from the dark, but the dark is here

Commander talks tough, but his hands still shake

I can read every lie by the breath he takes

Stars on the glass and a planet below

Give the order once, watch the engines blow

There was a boy in me chasing the sun

Now the suit keeps count of what I've become

Still hear a small voice underneath the machine

But mercy got buried where the lava burned clean

Hear that engine through the iron floor

You had one chance, now you have no more

I bring the force, make the whole ship freeze

Red in the dark, down on your knees

No throne, no crown, just a vow I defend

Fear in the hall when the black mask bends

I bring the force, let the cold air fall

One name travels through them all

From the ashes I rise, from the silence I steer

You can run from the dark, but the dark is here

I remember blue skies, I remember rain

A hand reaching out through the smoke and pain

If there's still a spark underneath this shell

It learned how to live in a personal hell

I bring the force, make the whole ship freeze

Red in the dark, down on your knees

No throne, no crown, just a vow I defend

Fear in the hall when the black mask bends

I bring the force, let the cold air fall

One name travels through them all

From the ashes I rise, from the silence I steer

You can run from the dark, but the dark is here

Breath in the chamber, doors slide wide

The last light fades on the other side
