Death Wore a Crown (On LV-426)

dark cinematic electronic, synthwave / retro-futurist, sci‑fi space‑horror (electronic action)

[Intro]
Cold steel ceiling, warning red,
Names I carry, names of the dead,
Engines humming like a prayer gone wrong,
I knew that moon would not sleep long.

[Verse 1]
They said go back, just one more run,
A colony family under a poisoned sun,
LV Four Twenty Six, dust and lies,
Silence waiting with a thousand eyes.

The halls were still but the fear was loud,
Ashes of voices inside the shroud,
Every footprint, every broken door,
Told me I had seen this hell before.

[Pre-Chorus]
I felt it breathing in the walls,
In the dark between the cables and the calls,
No one listened till the screaming started,
No one knew how fast we'd be outnumbered.

[Chorus]
I walked through fire on LV Four Twenty Six,
Through the smoke, through the static, through the crucifix,
I saw the Queen in the heart of the gloom,
The bringer of death wore a crown, every beast that she birthed,
I still see the hive when I close my eyes,
Still hear the motion trackers cutting through the lies,
They sent us down, but I learned the truth,
On LV Four Twenty Six, death was waiting in the womb.

[Verse 2]
Marines came in with their bravado bright,
Laughing like they owned the dark that night,
Then the walls moved and the floor gave way,
And courage turned to fragments in the fray.

Flashes blue in the sulfur rain,
Gunfire swallowed by the heat and pain,
One by one the noise got thin,
Till survival was the only thing left in.

[Pre-Chorus]
And in that child I saw a reason,
A pulse of life against the feeding season,
So I held the line with all I had,
For the living, for the lost, for every friend gone bad.

[Bridge]
Eggshell shadows, breathing slime,
A mother’s rage in a borrowed time,
I remember the heat, I remember the chain,
The elevator shaking like a living vein.

I was done being hunted,
Done burying names,
Done letting monsters
Decide who remains.

[Breakdown]
Risers climbing
Pressure surging
Airlock heartbeats
Memory burning

[Final Chorus]
I walked through fire on LV Four Twenty Six,
Through the smoke, through the static, through the crucifix,
I saw the Queen in the heart of the gloom,
The bringer of death wore a crown, every beast that she birthed,
I still see the hive when I close my eyes,
Still hear the motion trackers cutting through the lies,
They sent us down, but I learned the truth,
On LV Four Twenty Six, death was waiting in the womb.

[Outro]
Now the stars go silent when I say the name,
LV Four Twenty Six, and nothing feels the same,
But I’m still here,
Breathing through the flame.
