[Verse 1] I know your name, Zaun-born blade Blade Dancer, splintered and still standing Brother to chaos, blood to the twins You wear the cuts like medals A laugh on your mouth A graveyard behind your eyes And still you spin through smoke Like pain owes you tribute [Verse 2] I have watched mortals bloom and break You are not built like the rest Acrobatic steel, dirty hands Fire in the joints Gadgets blooming bright as curses A heel to the jaw A flash of sparks A sword that bites, then dances away [Pre-Chorus] Rumors crawl across the void Like ash on a dead wind They say your laugh is a seal And if it dies Something old in Zaun breathes deep [Chorus] Welcome, Blade Dancer Keep laughing, keep laughing I would rather hear your madness Than wake Zaun's Inferno Welcome, Blade Dancer Keep laughing, keep laughing For if your fire turns quiet I must fear what rises next [Verse 3] I am a star with patience enough To crush empires slowly Yet I weigh your shadow And find it heavy A mortal threat Wrapped in circus steel A future knife Held by a hand that learned to survive [Verse 4] So whirl, little storm Throw your sparks at fate Kiss the ground with broken tricks Then spring again Let your fire magic spit Let your bitter tricks land true I can admire the elegance And still measure the disaster [Pre-Chorus] Because when the laughter thins When the grin goes still The rumor stops being rumor And I hear Zaun waking under the skin [Chorus] Welcome, Blade Dancer Keep laughing, keep laughing I would rather hear your madness Than wake Zaun's Inferno Welcome, Blade Dancer Keep laughing, keep laughing For if your fire turns quiet I must fear what rises next [Bridge] [Spoken] I have seen suns collapse I have watched worlds beg But this is different This is a mortal wound With a cosmic edge A brother's grief A city's poison A blade that learned to dance [Sung] Then learned to survive [Final Chorus] Welcome, Blade Dancer Keep laughing, keep laughing I will guard that broken thunder From the dark below Welcome, Blade Dancer Keep laughing, keep laughing For if your fire turns quiet I keep Zaun's Inferno sleeping
