Chestburster Anthem

[Verse 1] Mother ship cut the night in half I woke up slick in a silver craft Cold wall, wet breath, red scan glow Something in the vents moving slow Silent eggs in a black-lit row I know that shape, I know that low Face on my face like a cursed mask Now my pulse beat hard through a cracked-out glass [Pre-Chorus] Don’t scream Don’t run It’s here It’s begun [Chorus] In the dark hatch Something wants out In the dark hatch Hear that throat shout Skin turns thin And the fear gets loud In the dark hatch We don’t make it out (out) [Verse 2] Found a claw mark down in the hull Found my courage getting dull Blood on steel, boots hit mud Ain’t no prayer when it smells that blood Queen in the nest with a crown of bone Crew gone missing, we’re far from home One wrong step and the hive wakes up Then the whole damn deck gets lit by guts [Pre-Chorus] Don’t blink Don’t hide It learns It climbs [Chorus] In the dark hatch Something wants out In the dark hatch Hear that throat shout Skin turns thin And the fear gets loud In the dark hatch We don’t make it out (out) [Bridge] I can hear it in the vents above I can feel that cold machine-love Not a god, just a hungry ghost Wearing my fear like a second coat [Breakdown] Rip the seal Lock the door Too late now It’s here for more [Final Chorus] In the dark hatch Something wants out In the dark hatch Hear that throat shout Skin turns thin And the fear gets loud In the dark hatch We don’t make it out (out) [Outro] Mother ship cut the night in half And it left one scream on the glass
