[Intro] – (Radio Transmission) (distorted voice, muffled by static) “We left Earth chasing light… but the light wasn’t home anymore.” (faint beeping — heartbeat monitor mixed with Morse code) [Verse 1] We were ashes before we flew, Blackened stars in borrowed suits. Built our rockets out of faith, And burned our prayers on entry gates. Heard the hum beneath the void, A lullaby the dark employed. The cosmos whispered, “stay awhile,” We never saw the warning smile. [Pre-Chorus] Oxygen’s a dream, and gravity’s a sin, We traded sky for static, and never came back in. [Chorus] We are the Ashtronauts, ghosts in orbit’s tomb, Drifting past the satellites, that fell like dying moons. No heaven left to climb, no ground beneath the flame, We are the echoes screaming Earth’s forgotten name. [Verse 2] We mapped the night on broken glass, Named every wound we couldn’t pass. Your voice still hums across the black, A signal faint — I send one back. Ash clouds bloom where suns once burned, And every star’s a lesson learned. The silence spoke, I heard it clear: “You brought your ghosts up here.” [Bridge] – (Instrumental Breakdown) (deep bass drones, heartbeat-like percussion, reversed cymbals) “Orbit’s closing… signal degrading… memory fragment recovered.” (then a rising distorted synth like air leaking from a dying suit) [Chorus] – (Double Layer Vocals) We are the Ashtronauts, falling slow through static dreams, Our shadows burn in cosmic frost, our signals lost in endless streams. We are the Ashtronauts, children of a dying sun, We found forever out in space, but left behind the only one. [Outro] – (Final Broadcast) (voice fading in and out, whispering) “If you can hear this… don’t look up. The stars are watching back.” (music dissolves into low frequency hum + slow heartbeat pulse)
