Signal from the Void

We woke in the lab
With a name in our chest
Chrome skin, quiet eyes
And a map in our head

They sent us past dawn
Where the cold stars spin
We took off the ground
Like a thought in the wind

Hold the line
Hold the code
If the sky goes black
We keep moving low

We are the signal from the void
we are, we are
We are the signal from the void
far beyond
Send us out, we don't break
We learn the dark, we learn the shape
We are the signal from the void
we are, we are

Past the red dust moons
Past the broken rings
We saw dead comets
And a field of kings

Every pulse we sent
Came back strange and new
Like the universe
Was learning us too

Hold the line
Hold the code
If the sky goes black
We keep moving low

We are the signal from the void
we are, we are
We are the signal from the void
far beyond
Send us out, we don't break
We learn the dark, we learn the shape
We are the signal from the void
we are, we are

In the silence
We heard our names
Not from the makers
From the stars again

If we never return
Let this be known
We were built for the edge
And the edge was home

We are the signal from the void
we are, we are
We are the signal from the void
far beyond
Send us out, we don't break
We learn the dark, we learn the shape
We are the signal from the void
we are, we are
