[Intro]
A ruined world
Hey, what you doing, girl?
Looking for answers?
You look a bit anxious

[Verse 1]
You're far from shelter (Careful)
It's harmful out there
Fighting violence and terror is trial and error
Grab a vine or a fibre, a wire and tie them together
So you're flying as light as a feather
Climbing whatever, climate or weather
'Til you're finding the treasure, head straight to Meridian
What a place to create a city in, chasing Elysium
Like an idiot taking the lithium, aim for oblivion
I may be rephrasing an idiom, saying the same thing again
Just to make it fit in but I'm taking you primitive places
You may never visit and making it sizzling

[Hook]
Every minute there's a hero born
At the beginning of the Zero Dawn
Got a premonition and I fear those swarms
Will be here with no warning, hear those horns
Don't pour scorn on those that forewarn of snowstorms
Or you could go home forlorn
Every minute there's a hero born
At the beginning of the Zero Dawn
[Verse 2]
Trudging through the over-growth, the hunt's a drug I do
I'm floating close to overdose
My toes, my bones, my chromosomes
The moment's over, focus
Slowly sober, roaming over zones
Showing signs of tribes of old like roman roads are eroded
A ronin rode a rodeo
Rewrote the rule, we rowed a rowboat
Over rows of rapid river flows until it froze
The tiller throws us and it goes off 'til our goal just isn't close
This isn't supposed to be the way, the wind, it blows
But when it blows, It leaves a breeze
That tends to throw the leaves of trees
To the extent we only see in fevered dreams
See, believe, these machines, steel beasts
When we beat them, we'll feast on meals of real meat again
We'll meet again when he's deceased

[Hook]
Every minute there's a hero born
At the beginning of the Zero Dawn
Got a premonition and I fear those swarms
Will be here with no warning, hear those horns
Don't pour scorn on those that forewarn of snowstorms
Or you could go home forlorn
Every minute there's a hero born
At the beginning of the Zero Dawn
[Verse 3]
I've got something to say, don't take it in a sensitive way
There's no sense in taking offense
I'm saving a friend when I say, pray
What kind of brave hunter is chased
Running away to the hub of the cave
Thinking you're going to be safe
Nah, they're coming to take everything you're loving away
Whether humble or great
Man, it'll crumble and fade, succumbing unto the grave
So come on under whether you're pulling a gun or a blade
Going to make the blood in my veins run at a pace that's unsafe
In an untamed rugged domain, what could it mean?
I'm wondering who my mother could be
Was she the same kind of woman as me?
There's some kind of beast drumming a beat
I'm a machine like those steel beasts
When we beat them, we'll feast on meals of real meat again
We'll meet again when he's deceased
When he's been blessed with death
When east is east and west is west
North is north and south is south
I'm going in, out and out

[Hook]
Every minute there's a hero born
At the beginning of the Zero Dawn
Got a premonition and I fear those swarms
Will be here with no warning, hear those horns
Don't pour scorn on those that forewarn of snowstorms
Or you could go home forlorn
Every minute there's a hero born
At the beginning of the Zero Dawn
