about

This song inspired by Mass Effect™ 2.

lyrics

Even the strongest can fall being taken by surprise
We've been attacked on patrol, and many gave up their lives

My body was burst into flames, I couldn't breathe
Alone in space is this my life's end?
But someone has got what was left of me
To bring me back for the galaxy's sake


[Chorus]
We'll fly to the dark or to wherever you all are
Your insect eyes shall be my lodestar
You may knock me down, may blow me up or tear apart
But I will revive to strike back hard


I was dead but now I've been returned
The crew is lost or broken up
My loyalty's the Council's concern
The missing men ain't worth regards

What a trust after all we've been through
Cerberus, I'm on it for the peace we once knew.


[Chorus]
We'll fly to the dark or to wherever you all are
Your insect eyes shall be my lodestar
You may knock me down, may blow me up or tear apart
But I will revive to strike back hard


The colony named after freedom
Got its colonists imprisoned
Opening me the clues who did this
(The) insect-like Collectors' species

To fight a fiend as enigmatic as they are
It needs a team of diverse skilled ones
Who won't step back (and) will assault them stark
If working in concord we'll make them flee at once

They landed on Horizon,
Didn't expect us to surprise them
We really did our best,
Saved a lot, but not (the) rest...

Walking down the Collectors' hives
With the best team ever beside
I am shocked and terrified
By the sight of the dead bodies piles


[Chorus]
We'll fly to the dark or to wherever you all are
Your insect eyes shall be my lodestar
You may knock me down, may blow me up or tear apart
But I will revive to strike back hard


You're hiding in your base near the galaxy's core
Thinking that you're safe, revolving around a black hole

By trading different living beings for your techs
You have been given the name Collectors
Now tell me, how much protection is all the tech
Against the rage of a revived spectre?

Tell me, how much protection is all the tech
When Shepard's team is here and striking back

[Chorus 2x]
We'll fly to the dark or to wherever you all are
Your insect eyes shall be my lodestar
You may knock me down, may blow me up or tear apart
But I will revive to strike back hard
