AURORA - Heathens is painfully fitting as an Eva Stratt song
"She bargains with the world
So everything she wants will come to her"
Pirating the internet. Taking scientists out of prison. Arguing with world leaders to build the Hail Mary
"With no greed in her heart
She knows what she deserves"
She knew what she would get
"The storm, the dirt, the dust
The unforgiving promise made to us"
The promise of ruin, cold, starvation to those who live on Earth. The promise of death to those who volunteered to fly.
"Unworthy of your love, your god, your touch
We're guided by the lust"
Lust to live. To tear a chance out of the universe with teeth and sacrifice.
"We cry the fallen names
We cry for those who burn beneath the flame"
Yao. Ilyukhina. Shapiro. DeBois. Grace.
"We stand beside the good and brave
We stand beside the broken and enslaved"
[I'm not like you. I don't have the bravery gene]
"The mother with no heart [for one man]
Will give love [to humanity as a whole]"
"Her love is yours but only if you give your heart to her"
[You have three hours to think]
