Orion's Arrow (Heroic Eclipse)

[Cinematic Intro] The night holds its breath Only the wind moves on A trace against my fingertips The bowstring drawn tight ⸻ Verse 1 My footsteps press Into the dry earth The sky behind my shoulder Has yet to move Cold wind brushes The hand that holds the bow Carrying every shallow breath Into the night ⸻ Pre-Chorus The wind gently stirs The waiting string My eyes follow A trembling light My fingertips Still refuse to let go Until nothing but silence Fills my chest ⸻ Chorus Orion’s Arrow Cutting through the night The light that I released Is still crossing the sky Wrapped in the wind Leaving not a sound Reaching ever onward Toward those three stars ⸻ Verse 2 A shadow fades away But the heartbeat remains In my open right hand A trace of wind is left The night grows quiet Holding back its breath Watching that distant light As it flies away ⸻ Pre-Chorus The tightened string No longer trembles The silence of the night Pushes at my back High above me Three lights are waiting And the wind blows straight Only forward now ⸻ Chorus Orion’s Arrow Crossing through the dark A trail of light keeps reaching Farther toward the stars Cutting through the wind Piercing through the night Until those three stars Quietly begin to shine ⸻ Bridge I hold my breath The wind stands still The final trembling of the string Dissolves into the night ⸻ Final Chorus Orion’s Arrow The sky gives no answer Still the light keeps traveling Forward through the dark Those three stars Quietly shimmer And the arrow I released Becomes a part of the night sky ⸻
