Intro (Soft station ambience... distant docking clamps... then a warm bass line rolls in before the guitars explode.) "Docking request approved." "Welcome home, pilot." Verse 1 Same old lights across the bay, Been a long and honest day, Hull is scarred but standing strong, Guess this is where I belong. Every face I come to know, Every voice on comms below, Some are laughing, some complain, Tomorrow we'll undock again. Pre-Chorus Not because... We have to... Because there's nowhere else we'd rather be... Chorus This is my Home Station! Where everybody knows your name! After every haul and every fight, You come back just the same! Home Station! Safe beneath these lights! No matter where the journey goes... This is where the heart resides! Verse 2 Someone's fitting out a barge, Someone's hauling something large, Someone just bought their first ship, Everybody starts somewhere. Market chatter fills the halls, Coffee stains on station walls, Dreams are traded every day, Just another docking bay. Pre-Chorus Steel remembers... Where you've been... Every dock becomes a friend... Chorus This is my Home Station! Where everybody knows your name! After every haul and every fight, You come back just the same! Home Station! Standing through the years! Built from all the hopes we carried... Built from sweat instead of tears! Bridge Ships come... Ships go... Faces change... But somehow... This place always feels... Like home... Breakdown WELCOME HOME TAKE A LOAD OFF PULL UP A CHAIR TELL US YOUR STORY (Bagpipes carry a warm, almost pub-like melody while the guitar answers with slow, soaring chords.) Final Chorus This is my Home Station! The place that built us all! Every rookie... Every veteran... Every rise and every fall! Home Station! Raise your glasses high! Here's to every place we've called our own... Beneath a New Eden sky! Outro "Good work today." "See y'all tomorrow." (The music fades into the sound of station life—tools, laughter, distant engines... and finally, silence.)
