Starset - Vessels Album Lyrics

[Instrumental]

Darkening skies, coming this way
Falling behind, into nothing

If you lead, I will follow
A thousand miles away
I will be, your Apollo
Alone in outer space

Satellite, shine on me tonight
I'll feel your gravity, I'll stay and never leave
My satellite, I'm here tonight
Shine your light and set me free
Take the darkness out of me
Shine on me

Shine on me

Blinded I wait, end if forming
You are my fate, give me warning

If you lead, I will follow
A thousand miles away
I will be, your Apollo
Alone in out

Satellite, shine on me tonight
I'll feel your gravity, I'll stay and never leave
My satellite, I'm here tonight
Shine your light and set me free
Take the darkness out of me
Shine on me

Shine on me

Fall across the emptiness, and walk the night
Deserves the silence in the dark, and left behind
I seek the stars above the world to be the guide
They are pale against the light in your eyes

In your eyes...

And once I pass I know that you are too late
But I can feel you coursing through beyond the space
Just send your energy to me and I'll push on
Send your signal out, and bring me back to you

Satellite, shine on me tonight
I'll feel your gravity, I'll stay and never leave
My satellite, I'm here tonight
Shine your light and set me free
Take the darkness out of me
Shine on me

Shine on me

I was scanning through the skies
And missed the static in your eyes
Something blocking your reception
It's distorting our connection
With the distance amplified
Was it all just synthesized?
And now the silence screams that you are gone
You've tuned me out
I've lost your frequency

There's something here that's broken
There's something here with no end
It's paralyzed
It's in your eyes
Cause I can feel your soul fade
I can feel your heart change
It falls out of phase with mine
While you oscillate inside
Or is it only in my head?

Left inside a half-life
Irradiated insides
These memories
They never leave
I bared my soul for you and all I got was static
My heart was bulletproof till you took off the jacket

There's something here that's broken
There's something here with no end
It's paralyzed
It's in your eyes
Cause I can feel your soul fade
I can feel your heart change
It falls out of phase with mine
While you oscillate inside
Or is it only in my head?

Castaway
My cries are blocked by the horizon
Suffocate
I was doing this all for you

I'm in the shallows
Stuck in the gallows
I tried to save you now I'm swallowed
You wanted war
I am the war
I alone

I will run alone tonight
Without you by my side
I guess you had a place you had to get to
I know your eyes
I know inside
The walls you hide behind
And I saw the truth inside the real you
Because I know you're lost when you run away
Into the same black holes and black mistakes
Taking all my will just to run alone
When are you coming home?

Even if the sky does fall
Even if they take it all
There's no pain that I won't go through
Even if I have to die for you

And when all the fires burn
When everything is overturning
There's no thing that I won't go through
Even if I have to die for you

One day the earth will open wide
And I'll follow you inside
Cause the only hell I know is without you
Some day when galaxies collide
We'll be lost on different skies
I will send my rocket ship to find you
Because I know you're lost when you run away
Into the same black holes and black mistakes
Taking all my will just to run alone
Until I bring you home

Even if the sky does fall
Even if they take it all
There's no pain that I won't go through
Even if I have to die for you

And when all the fires burn
When everything is overturning
There's no thing that I won't go through
Even if I have to die for you

And if the sun grows cold along the way
And if the stars don't line to light the way
And when you fall away and crash back down below
I'll search the skies for you and I'll follow
I'll be in your afterglow
And I'll bring you home

Even if the sky does fall
Even if they take it all
I can't see but I'll follow you
Even if I'd die...

And when all the fires burn
When everything is overturning
There's no thing that I won't go through
Even if I have to die for you

And we were bold
Over the world
We were flying through the satellites
We had ahold
Of the lightning strikes
When we should have been afraid of heights
And I was trying just to get you
And now I'm dying to forget you
Cause I knew I couldn't catch you
So I left the sky
And I fell behind

We were one in the same
Running like moths to the flame
You'd hang on every word I'd say
But now they only ricochet
We were falling away
You left me with a bittersweet taste
But when I send my heart your way
It bounces off the walls you made
Ricochet

If I was whole
I'd turn right now
I'd forget it and just walk away
Cause I've been told
That I'm dragging it out
But I've been dying just to see your face
And all I wanted was to say "goodbye"
Into the fortress and you're stuck behind
And in the silence now I realize
That after all I built the wall

We were one in the same
Running like moths to the flame
You'd hang on every word I'd say
But now they only ricochet
You were falling away
You left me with a bittersweet taste
But when I send my heart your way
It bounces off the walls you made
Ricochet

All these broken souls
They never make me whole
They don't, they don't know my heart
They don't know my heart

All these broken souls
Each one more beautiful
They don't, they don't know my heart
They don't know my heart

I'll send out my soul
To worlds more beautiful
But they won't, they won't know my heart
It's the darkest part

We were one in the same
Running like moths to the flame
You'd hang on every word I'd say
But now they only ricochet
You were falling away
You left me with a bittersweet taste
But when I send my heart your way
It bounces off the walls you made
Ricochet

Stardust
In you and in me
Fuse us
Into unity
Primeval
We're coupled
Born from the universe
Farewell
The void is calling
Don't fear
For futures and dreams
They're fleeting, retreating
It's ok
I promise

I don't know what to say
But I'm going to want you till the stars evaporate
We're only here for just a moment in the light
One day it shines for us the next we're in the night
So say the word and I'll be running back to find you
A thousand armies won't stop me I'll break through
I'll soar the endless skies for only one sight
Of your starlight

Tell me
Just tell me to stay
I'll turn
I won't look away
I'll stay here
I'll never go but you don't feel the same
Farewell
Farewell and godspeed
Light years
Between you and me
I'm fading
Your beauty conquers the darkness

At night the earth will rise
And I'll think of you each time I watch from distant skies
Whenever stars go down and galaxies ignite
I'll think of you each time they wash me in their light
And I'll fall in love with you again
I will find you
A thousand armies won't stop me I'll break through
I'll soar the endless skies for only one sight of your starlight

Don't leave me lost here forever
Show me your starlight and pull me through
Don't leave me lost here forever
I need your starlight and pull me through
Bring me back to you

Dislocated
Self is fading
Falling back from what I was
Flying through existence
Tumbling towards a burning sun
Something screaming in the distance
Telling me to come
It's calling me

Are you out there waiting?
I can hear it calling
It takes more than eyes to see
It's out in the energy but
I can hear it calling

Take the path less traveled
Face the darkness on my own
Into the starlight will I go
Until the end I will roam
Fate itself unraveled
Make the emptiness my home
Into the starlight will I go
Soaring into the unknown

Suffocated
Voice has faded
Is this real or in my mind?

I can hear it calling
It takes more than eyes to see
It's out in the energy but
I can hear it calling

Take the path less traveled
Face the darkness on my own
Into the starlight will I go
Until the end I will roam
Fate itself unraveled
Make the emptiness my home
Into the starlight will I go
Soaring into the unknown

There's a silencing
As the machine arrives here
I feel it pulling me
I feel the past that's died there
I hear it calling me
"You can come alive here."
I hear it beckoning
Until I am inside

Riding the horizon
Falling into you
Feel the vessel tighten
I feel you pull me through
A new world is breaking
Your heart is unveiling
Breaking into pieces
In the gravity of you

I see the empty dreams
Race across the sky here
I see energy streams
Where the ashes lie here
I feel you here with me
When all the hope has died here
It's boring holes in me
Enough to get inside

Riding the horizon
Falling into you
Feel the vessel tighten
I feel you pull me through
A new world is breaking
Your heart is unveiling
Breaking into pieces
In the gravity of you

To fall in the star is to be nothingness
To escape is to be empty
Fall into the star and then we won't exist
Or escape into the nothing
[x2]

Your sky
The beauty alone is worth it
I will risk it all to own it

Riding the horizon
Falling into you
Feel the vessel tighten
I feel you pull me through
A new world is breaking
Your heart is unveiling
Breaking into pieces
In the gravity of you

And the world
Pull me high, far above, wicked skies
Set me free
Set alive
I become, satellite

Isolated, I succumb to the weight of the world
Separated, I fall from the sky

Is this death or rebirth?

Falling back to the earth

(Falling, falling)
(Falling, falling)
(Falling, falling)
(Falling)

I ignite, engine call
Jettison, all I know

Isolated, I succumb to the weight of the world
Separated, I fall from the sky

Is this death or rebirth?

Falling back to the earth

(Falling, falling)
(Falling, falling)
(Falling, falling)
(Falling, falling)
(Falling, falling)
(Falling, falling)
(Falling, falling)
(Falling, falling)
(Falling, falling)
(Falling, falling)
(Falling, falling)
(Falling, falling)
(Falling, falling)
(Falling, falling)
(Falling, falling)
(Falling, falling)

(Fall)
(Fall)
(Fall)
(Fall)

And I fly
Further away
Than I've ever been before
It's safe to say
This sky
Is lonely and grey
But every night I feel your gravity waves

And the world is cold
But it's beautiful
I wish you were here now
I miss your soul
But you lost your light
When the darkness called
But I stand here waiting

The last to fall
The last to fall
The last to fall
The last to fall

And I fly
Above the enslaved
My soul is burning
Like an earth reclaimed
And I try
A final crusade
This world is changing
But I'm still the same

And will you be bold
Will you lose control?
I could never desert you
I could never let go
If you fall in line
And the zenith calls
I'm standing waiting

The last to fall
The last to fall
The last to fall
The last to fall

It's your magnetic hold
A gravity pull
I can feel you in waves
When your melody comes
It falls from above
I will not be afraid

The last to fall
The last to fall
The last to fall
The last to fall
The last to fall
The last to fall
The last to fall
The last to fall

I saw it in your eyes
I saw the creature deep inside
You opened up your cage
Pathetic insect
Drawn to flame
I'm falling apart
Inside your holographic heart
Lost souls dancing
And now the lie's collapsing

There's something inside you that isn't right
There's something that haunts your dreams at night
There's something that you have lost
And you're bringing it down
You're bringing it down
On top of us

I see the crimson thief
Hanging on heartstrings
Dripping bleach
Victim with hands in sleeves
Your lying swan sings
As I reach
I'm falling apart
Inside your holographic heart
Lost souls dancing
And now the lie's collapsing

There's something inside you that isn't right
There's something that haunts your dreams at night
There's something that you have lost
And you're bringing it down
You're bringing it down
On top of us

Silly me
I thought I had it
I came so close this time
I knew your heart was plastic
I still thought I could make it mine
Surrender you my mind
Your creature is inside...
Devouring me alive

There's something inside you that isn't right
There's something that haunts your dreams at night
There's something that you have lost
And you're bringing it down
You're bringing it down
On top of us

I lost myself into the night
And I flew higher
Than I had ever
But I still felt small
I clipped my wings and fell from flight
To open water
And floated farther
Away from myself

And I swam in the wakes of imposters
Just to feel what it's like to pretend
There's no dreams in the lakes only monsters
And the monsters are my only friends

They're all that I was
And never could be

Eyes in the dead still water
Tried but it pushed back harder
Cauterized and atrophied
This is my unbecoming
Knives in the backs of martyrs
Lives in the burning fodder
Cauterized and atrophied
This is my unbecoming

You found me drifted out to sea
It's automatic
It's telepathic
You always knew me
And you laugh as I search for a harbor
As you point where the halo had been
But the light in your eyes has been squandered
There's no angel in you in the end

And all that I was
I've left behind me

Eyes in the dead still water
Tried but it pushed back harder
Cauterized and atrophied
This is my unbecoming
Knives in the backs of martyrs
Lives in the burning fodder
Cauterized and atrophied
This is my unbecoming

Now I wait
This metamorphosis
All that is left is the change
Selfish fate
I think you made me this
Under the water I wait

Eyes in the dead still water
Tried but it pushed back harder
Cauterized and atrophied
This is my unbecoming
Knives in the backs of martyrs
Lives in the burning fodder
Cauterized and atrophied
This is my unbecoming

Under the knife I surrendered
The innocence your's to consume
You cut it away
And you filled me up with hate
Into the silence you sent me
Into the fire consumed
You thought I'd forget
But it's always in my head

You're the pulse in my veins
You're the war that I wage
Can you change me?
Can you change me?
You're the love that I hate
You're the drug that I take
Will you cage me?
Will you cage me?
You're the pulse in my veins
You're the war that I wage
Can you change me?
Can you change me?
From the monster you made me?
The monster you made me?

This is the world you've created
The product of what I've become
My soul and my youth
Seems it's all for you to use
If I could take back the moment
I'd let you get under my skin
Relent or resist
Seems the monster always wins

You're the pulse in my veins
You're the war that I wage
Can you change me?
Can you change me?
You're the love that I hate
You're the drug that I take
Will you cage me?
Will you cage me?
You're the pulse in my veins
You're the war that I wage
Can you change me?
Can you change me?
From the monster you made me?
The monster you made me?

My heart's an artifice, a decoy soul
I lift you up and then I let you go
I've made an art of digging shallow holes
I'll drop the tiniest seed and watch it grow
My heart's an artifice, a decoy soul
Who knew the emptiness could be so cold?
I've lost the parts of me that make me whole
I am the darkness
I'm a monster

You're the pulse in my veins
You're the war that I wage
Can you change me?
Can you change me?
You're the love that I hate
You're the drug that I take
Will you cage me?
Will you cage me?
You're the pulse in my veins
You're the war that I wage
Can you change me?
Can you change me?
From the monster you made me?
The monster you made me?
The monster you made me?
The monster you made me?

And if I had my way
I would run to the rescue
It never works that way
When you call a bluff

Oh, all the fools rush in
It's a battle to surround you
And all the fools want in
But I'm not giving up

I don't wanna let you go
But I can't stand to watch this
I don't wanna let you know
But you can read my mind

I feel it all the time
Felt it all around you
You had me under spell right from the start
I don't have a telepathic heart
Telepathic

Blind, I fall into the line
That's waiting just to get you
But I don't ever know just what we are
I don't have a telepathic heart
Telepathic

Look inside my brain
You'd know what I want before I tell you
Give me the words to say to make it enough
Don't want your star-crossed fate
You are the sun, I am the full moon
Don't leave me lost in vain
I can be what you want

I don't wanna let you go
But I can't stand to watch this
I don't wanna let you know
But you can read my mind

I feel it all the time
Felt it all around you
You had me under spell right from the start
I don't have a telepathic heart
Telepathic

Blind, I fall into the line
That's waiting just to get you
But I don't ever know just what we are
I don't have a telepathic heart
Telepathic
Telepathic
Telepathic

And you always turn away
Back to the start where I break through
You can run, you can run away
I will wait in the dark for you
Should've never felt this way
Cause you're the sun and I'm just a moon
I'm in the dark 'till you light the way
Cause I'm see through
You can read my mind

I feel it all the time
Felt it all around you
You had me under spell right from the start
I don't have a telepathic heart
Telepathic

Blind, I fall into the line
That's waiting just to get you
But I don't ever know just what we are
I don't have a telepathic heart
Telepathic
Telepathic
Telepathic

You come in waves
Till you're all I know
Then you fade away
Into nothing
Weighed down by dark matter inside
You leave me frozen
You leave me froze in time
In your

Everglow
You'll never know
The beauty I see when you open your shadows
Everglow
They'll never know
The worlds that I see in the darkness you don't show

Falling through a landslide
Feeling like the first time I felt you
Caught inside the field lines
That pull me to the land mines inside you
Black hole eyes won't gaze now
Drawn in just the same
You leave me frozen
You leave me frozen inside

Everglow
You'll never know
The beauty I see when you open your shadows
Everglow
They'll never know
The worlds that I see in the darkness you don't show
[x2]

Come
I'll show every ghost in me
Take my pain into you...
