Oyster of Stars

[Verse 1] I pace the deck alone Alderaan in my glass Blue hush on the horizon Like a jewel I can pass Father taught me the angles Mother taught me the crown I know every locked door And I know how to get down [Pre-Chorus] I keep a blaster ready A vibroknife at my side Grenades in the hidden panel And no fear left to hide The stars lean in closer When I cut the dark in two One soft touch for the wounded One hard turn to break through [Chorus] The galaxy is my oyster I crack it open wide The galaxy is my oyster I take the pearl inside I taste the risk I take the prize The galaxy is my oyster And I’m built for the ride [Verse 2] I slip through armored shadows Like I was born in chrome Stealth like silk on my shoulders Then I’m gone from the home If the engine starts to shiver I can coax it back to heat If the crew comes limping in I can sew up broken feet I’ve seen empires selling What they swear can’t fall apart I just wait for the seam Then I press my thumb to art [Pre-Chorus] I keep a blaster ready A vibroknife at my side Grenades in the hidden panel And no fear left to hide The stars lean in closer When I cut the dark in two One soft touch for the wounded One hard turn to break through [Chorus] The galaxy is my oyster I crack it open wide The galaxy is my oyster I take the pearl inside I taste the risk I take the prize The galaxy is my oyster And I’m built for the ride [Bridge] On this deck, I can hear it All the empires holding still Alderaan glows like a promise Too bright for anyone’s will Let them call me a thief now Let them whisper I’m a flame I was raised on stolen heavens And I answer to my name [Final Chorus] The galaxy is my oyster I crack it open wide The galaxy is my oyster I take the pearl inside I taste the risk I take the prize The galaxy is my oyster And I’m built for the ride The galaxy is my oyster I crack it open wide The galaxy is my oyster Tonight it’s mine to try
