[Intro] Stone remembers every name Hunger waits beneath the frame Zaun-born child, cross the black Bring your sparks into my maw [Verse 1] I heard your blades before you came Three bright cuts through smoke and rain You vault the rail, you turn, you grin A dirty trick beneath the skin Gadgets crack in copper light Fire coils around the fight Brother to the girl who laughs Brother to the girl who strikes You carve a path through poisoned air With burning hands and borrowed dare Every landing bends the ground Every fuse becomes a crown [Chorus] Welcome, Blade Dancer, enter the deep Where ancient appetites refuse to sleep Your fire has teeth, your steel has eyes Tell me, little spark—what wakes when Zaun dies? I could swallow you, bone and flame Or teach your blaze to speak my name Come closer, boy, let the ruin start I want to taste the hunger in your heart [Spoken] You move like a secret Zaun never managed to bury. Acrobat. Saboteur. Arsonist. Thief of clean victories. Your sisters made legends from fury and laughter. You made a weapon from every unfair hand dealt to you. Tell me—when the Inferno beneath your city opens its mouth, will you command the fire... or will it discover that you are meat? [Verse 2] You feint high, then rake the knee A flash-bomb blooms; you vanish free Boot to throat and blade to wrist No noble code survives your fist Blackened sparks climb up your sleeve Old Zaun ghosts begin to breathe The alley trembles, pipes complain Something red wakes in your veins You fight with flair, you fight with spite You turn a loss into a bite And every gadget, every scar Says you were built beneath a star [Chorus] Welcome, Blade Dancer, enter the deep Where ancient appetites refuse to sleep Your fire has teeth, your steel has eyes Tell me, little spark—what wakes when Zaun dies? I could swallow you, bone and flame Or teach your blaze to speak my name Come closer, boy, let the ruin start I want to taste the hunger in your heart [Bridge] If Inferno rises through the lanes If molten thunder floods the drains If every tower bends and breaks Will you feed it all the lives it takes? I smell a furnace in your breath A red horizon dressed as death Perhaps I’ll guide it, chain by chain Perhaps I’ll dine beside the flame [Spoken] Do not mistake curiosity for mercy. I have watched empires become mouthfuls. I have felt heroes soften between my teeth. Yet your fire... your fire does not beg to be saved. It begs for a door. And I have swallowed worlds large enough to build one. [Final Chorus] Welcome, Blade Dancer, enter the deep Where ancient appetites refuse to sleep Your fire has teeth, your steel has eyes Let the Zaun Inferno learn to recognize I could swallow you, bone and flame Or raise your blaze and wear its name Come closer, boy, let the ruin start I want to taste the hunger in your heart Welcome, Blade Dancer, no turning back Bring every spark through the cavern black If you are the match, then I am the breath Choose my hunger—or unleash your death [Outro] Steel falls silent Fuses burn low Deep below Zaun Something says go Blade Dancer... come closer.
