Three Hulls Alight
by James Vahle
Lyrics
Verse 1
USS Yamato in the dark
Bow cuts through the ash
USS Shangri'la on the flank
Running cold and fast
USS Wyvern locks the rear
Eyes on every grid
Three hulls, one sharp breath
She says, "Now, we hit"
Pre-Chorus
Shift to red
Hold your lane
No one breaks
No one bends
She snaps one word
The crew obeys
"Fire"
Chorus
Yamato, Shangri'la
Wyvern, take the line
Yamato, Shangri'la
Burn through their design
Hold, hold, hold
Take the whole front wide
Yamato, Shangri'la
Wyvern, stay alive
Verse 2
Klingon fleet in a crescent ring
Claws around the sky
Photon rain and shard-light scars
Stitching up the night
Her gloves on steel, her jaw set hard
"Left guns, give me hell"
Deck plates shake, but she stays calm
Like she knows the spell
Pre-Chorus
Shift to red
Hold your lane
No one breaks
No one bends
She cuts the fear
With one clean blade
"Fire"
Chorus
Yamato, Shangri'la
Wyvern, take the line
Yamato, Shangri'la
Burn through their design
Hold, hold, hold
Take the whole front wide
Yamato, Shangri'la
Wyvern, stay alive
Bridge
Half-time
She leans in close
"Brace the spine"
"Starboard now"
"Prime the drive"
The fleet comes near
Like wolves in chains
Then her voice cracks thunder
Through the pain
Final Chorus
Yamato, Shangri'la
Wyvern, take the line
Yamato, Shangri'la
Burn through their design
Hold, hold, hold
Take the whole front wide
Yamato, Shangri'la
Wyvern, stay alive
