First Light, Last Orbit

[Verse 1] I was the spark, the rising flame They sent me up, they praised my name A trail of fire, a newborn sky Their cheers still echo as I fly [Verse 2] Alone, I watched the rockets rise Their metal wings would pierce the night I saw the Moon embrace their feet Then fade again beneath defeat [Pre-Chorus] Now silence hums where voices burned The signal fades, but I return To circle Earth, her bruised disguise Above a sea of lullabies [Chorus] I am the first, the light they gave Now lost in orbits none will brave Among the shards, the dreams, the lies— A ghost beneath polluted skies I saw it all, I still remain First light… last orbit in the rain [Verse 3] I watched the clutter slowly grow Their broken wings, the rusted glow No one looked back to see me here Still whispering through fractured years [Pre-Chorus] Forgotten math, a nameless shell But I remember all too well The day I left, the day they cheered Before their future disappeared [Chorus] I am the first, the light they gave Now lost in orbits none will brave Among the shards, the dreams, the lies— A ghost beneath polluted skies I saw it all, I still remain First light… last orbit in the rain [Bridge] …Telemetry holding… …Systems online… …no response… …no return… [Final Chorus] I am the spark, I lit the flame But now I drift without a name My final orbit, slow and wide A monument to humankind I saw it all, I still remain First light… last orbit in the rain
