[Intro]
Sands of time are running low, the clock is ticking
Light the fuse about to blow, escape this city
Our planet under siege, unleash the Necron fleet
Strapped in and set to go, now blast into the great unknown
Into the great unknown!
[Verse 1: Matt Heafy]
Protectors of the stars, we blaze towards the battlefield in force tonight
A pulse of energy lights up the sky like supersonic dynamite
The star of death awaits, our power growing brighter than the burning sun
Hold down your triggers and preparе to blast them all into oblivion
[Pre-Chorus]
In a distant dream, but it's time to lеt it go
With a burning in your heart, like lightning in the dark, flying
[Chorus]
Faster than light, deadly we strike
Under the gun, nowhere to run
Meltdown approaching, the Earth is burning
Masters of the cosmic skies
Faster, take a rocket ride
Through solar clouds, our anthem sounds
To defend to the last survivor
Warriors of galactic fire
Soldiers of the great empire
For future kings, our anthem rings
To defend to the last survivor
Astro Warriors, guardians of the sky
Hear our battle cry
[Verse 2: Matt Heafy]
We laugh at death, another enemy fighter bursting right into flames
Feel the G-force caught in the crosshair of their lasers fire in our veins
For the empire, we fight and die above the wasteland burning down below
So one more time it's do or die, we're sent to fly into the danger zone
[Pre-Chorus]
In a cosmic sea, only memories of home
With a vengeance in your hearts
On the highway of the stars flying
[Chorus]
Fighters deployed, cities destroyed
Under the gun, out on the run
Meltdown approaching, the Earth is burning
Masters of the cosmic skies
Faster, take a rocket ride
Through solar clouds, our anthem sounds
To defend to the last survivor
Warriors of galactic fire
Soldiers of the great empire
For future kings, our anthem rings
To defend to the last survivor
Astro Warriors, guardians of the sky
Hear our battle cry
[Instrumental Break]
[Bridge]
Through the black hole, through the galaxy
For the glory of the federation
Through the firestorm, through the hurricane
For the dawn of a brand new day
Through the black hole, through the galaxy
For the glory of the federation
Through the firestorm, through the hurricane
For the dawn of a brand new day
[Solos: Nita Strauss]
[Bridge]
Start a riot, start a war, touch the path to glory
Every age comes to an end
Tearing up, crashing down, it's an endless story
But we are one, the battle born, still flying
[Chorus]
Faster than light, deadly we strike
Under the gun, nowhere to run
Meltdown approaching, the Earth is burning
Masters of the cosmic skies
Faster, take a rocket ride
Through solar clouds, our anthem sounds
To defend to the last survivor
Warriors of galactic fire
Soldiers of the great empire
For future kings, our anthem rings
To defend to the last survivor
Astro Warriors, guardians of the sky
[Final Chorus]
(Masters) Of the skies (Faster)
Through solar clouds our anthem sounds
To defend to the last survivor
(Warriors) Warriors (Soldiers)
For future kings, our anthem rings
To defend to the last survivor
Astro Warriors, guardians of the sky
Hear our battle cry
