Soulbound

We race around the melted char of what was once a neutron star
And use the gravity to whip us into dark galactic rifts
Yet still somehow we can’t escape
They have no flaw, they feel no pain
These twisted shadows of the men I once condemned
(We can) Why do you seek us?
(See right) You won’t defeat us
(Through you) Turn around while you can
(Your soul) Try to remember
(Is ours) Why you defend her
(This time) Shatter the master plan
Soulbound, endlessly forever
Locked between the darkness and the light
Don’t drown in the swarming, blackened rising
Hold on to humanity and fight
Tormented by the tethering of souls to phantoms that remain
These spectres seem devoid of life
But there is something in their eyes
Refuse to see they can’t be saved
I push to pull them from the grave
End their addiction to the thrall once and for all
But who am I to be their saviour, slave to time
When I am doomed to be in chains for all my life?
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Soulbound, endlessly forever
Locked between the darkness and the light
Don’t drown in the swarming, blackened rising
Hold on to humanity and fight
