Starcatcher Album Lyrics by Greta Van Fleet

Fate of the Faithful

Hail, the God song
All trill to the tune, devout reprise
Hail, the eon
We knelt on this slab, the blessed people

We fought for the fable, oh
But instead we burn
And in the end of time, oh
Left an empty urn

Hail the maker
A noisy device to take the toll
God forsake her
For the songs that she sang have left God's acre

We fought for the fable, oh
But instead we burn
And in the end of time, oh
Left an empty urn

We fought for the fable, oh
But instead we burn
And in the end of time, yeah
Left an empty urn

Waited All Your Life

(Turn on)

Let's begin, oh
You've wandered through the door
Come on in, whoa
Have you been here before?
Yeah-yeah, yeah

Waited all your life
Oh, ay, yeah

You've come from so far away
And do you intend to stay?
Swim to shore
If this is what you're looking for
Shout, "Oh Lord"
If this is what you're looking for
You've been on your way
You've been on your way
Please stay

Where've you been? Oh
We won't lead you astray
Share our skin, whoa-whoa-whoa
It's time for us to pray, pray

Waited all your life
Oh, ay, yeah

Come from so far away
And do you intend to stay?
Swim to shore
If this is what you're looking for
Shout, "Oh Lord"
If this is what you're looking for
You've been on your way
You've been on your way
Please stay

You've come from so far away
And do you intend to stay?
Swim to shore
This is what you're looking for
Shout, "Oh Lord"
And if this is what you're looking for
You've been on your way

You've been on your way, way, way, way, way, way, way
Been on your way
Sprint to shout, yeah
Please stay, please stay, please stay
Please stay
Don't go away

The Falling Sky

I've been handed a quite demanding
And hardly standing lie to tell
Life is sorted and never thwarted
It's just supported by being well

Oh, I don't wanna lose this time
Oh, I just wanna let it pass

Whoa
Whoa, whoa
Whoa
Holding up the falling sky
Whoa
Whoa, whoa
Whoa
Holding up the falling sky

Here's the trouble with seeing double
It's torn-down rubble that's left behind
You can live with a pointless forte
That silly board game that you would know

Oh, I don't wanna lose this time
I just wanna let it pass

Whoa
Whoa, whoa
Whoa
Holding up the falling sky
Whoa
Whoa, whoa
Whoa
Holding up the falling sky

Whoa
Whoa, whoa
Whoa
Holding up the falling sky
Whoa
Whoa, whoa
Whoa
Holding up the falling sky
Whoa
Whoa, whoa
Whoa
Holding up the falling sky

Sacred The Thread

The sequins, ooh
Tripping on the light, whoa
I feel it, ah
Hugging me so tight
Whoa-whoa, whoa-whoa
Whoa-whoa, whoa-whoa

I've seen it in the stars
To dress up a wound, heal a scar

I've caught the wind in a kite of dreams
In a flight of seams
Like freedom sewn
And the people roar and the people soar
Sacred the thread, sacred the thread
I've caught the wind in a kite of dreams
In a flight of seams

I see me
Through colors, gems and trim, whoa
Unraveled, ah
The glow that was once dim
Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah
Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah

I've seen it in the stars
To dress up the wound, heal a scar

I've caught the wind in a kite of dreams
In a flight of seams
Like freedom sewn
And the people roar and the people soar
Sacred the thread, sacred the thread
I've caught the wind in a kite of dreams
In a flight of seams

I've caught the wind in a kite of dreams
In a flight of seams
Like freedom sewn
And the people roar and the people soar
Sacred the thread, sacred the thread
I've caught the wind in a kite of dreams
In a flight of seams

Sacred the thread, sacred the thread
I've caught the wind in a kite of dreams
In a flight of seams

Runway Blues

You know what I'm talkin' about

Touch down in San Francisco
Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na
Bound for New York City
Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na

Well, I'd love to say a long goodbye
But I don't know that I'll have the time, yeah

Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na
Whoa

Run down

The Indigo Streak

Wide-minded dreamer
From far and away
Paints pictures cleaner
With brushes, he touches the sky

No child to woman
But child no less
Though mostly human
The painter, a prophet so high

Into the ether
Ready for the garden
Into it deeper
Even Heaven's hearken
Reaching, reaching, reaching, oh

Seen over sundown
Catching the stars
Above the cyclone
The indigo streak that becomes the eye

Into the ether
Ready for the garden
Into it deeper
Even Heaven's hearken
Reaching, reaching, reaching

Into the ether
Ready for the garden
Into it deeper
Even Heaven's hearken

Into the ether
Ready for the garden
Into it deeper
Even Heaven's hearken
Reaching, reaching, reaching

Frozen Light

(One, two, three, four)

Frozen light like falling snow
Here to guide us the long way home
The streets are silent
The moonlight is dancing
Four brothers searching for a meal

I know that I am not alone
I know the frozen light will take me there

Cast a light to lead the ride on, on
A flame for going home
Cast a light to burn the night down, whoa-whoa
A flame for going home

Oh-whoa

Frosty bite for searching souls
Drunken laughter and dreams in gold
Anticipation, the distance is dancing
The smell of something in the air

I know that I am not alone
I know the chosen road is ours to bear
I know that I am not alone
I know the frozen light will guide me there

Cast a light to ride the night on, on
A flame for going home
Cast a light to burn the night down, whoa-whoa
A flame for going home

A flame
For going home

Alright

Cast a light to lead the ride on
A flame for going home
Cast a light to burn the night down, whoa-whoa
A flame for going home

The Archer

Vengeance is a bow
And arrows only justice when fired
I have loved, I have lost
I am the archer

Devil at the door
Standing with his right arm extended
On a hunt for the kill
I am the archer

Torn, I turn to my bow, Sara
Torn, I turn to my arrow, Sara

Final blow
My heaviness of breath has been lifted
Let the world know my name
I am the archer

Torn, I turn to my bow, Sara
Torn, I turn to my arrow, Sara

My home is on the horse I ride
What emptiness without my bride
Such heaviness inside
This was the day the archer died

Torn, I turn to my bow, Sara
Torn, I turn to my arrow, Sara
Torn, I turn to my bow, Sara
Torn, I turn to my arrow, Sara

Meeting the Master

What a day to meet the master
I've been waiting for so long
Final day to meet the master
It's my time to go home

And I'm taken, whoa-oh
By the madness
And the tripping
And the touching

What a day to travel faster
Take my trip around the sun
I have known no other master
He has been the only one
Ooh, he's the only one
Ooh, the only one

And I'm taken
By the madness
And the tripping
And the touching

Ram, ram, ram, ram, ram
Ram, ram, ram, ram, ram
Ram, ram, ram

Blow it up to give him all of our love, all of our love
Blow it up to give him all of our love, all of our love
Blow it up to give him all of our love, all of our love
All of our love, all of our love
All of our love, all of our love

Farewell for Now

We have shared with you our stories
Had ourselves a really big time
Fought in battles far from the homeland
Made love, even drank from the wine

And I wish we all could stay
But I bid you a farewell
And it means the world to play
But I bid you a farewell

Friends who've come so far to join us
We hope you come and join us again
Friends who've come to sing in the chorus
You floor us, we will sing 'til the end

And I wish we all could stay
But I bid you a farewell
And it means the world to play
But I bid you a farewell

Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah

And I wish we all could stay
But I bid you a farewell
And it means the world to play
But I bid you a farewell

Gathered here tonight
Did it up just right
And it's all for you

Gathered here tonight
Did it up just right
And it's all for you

Gathered here tonight
Did it up just right
