Under a Broken Sky

We Come Alive

Under a Broken Sky is a cinematic sprint through the end of the world — neon rain, siren glow, and two voices refusing to go quietly. It is built for big evenings, bigger headphones, and the moment the city lights fail.

A song born from the ashes. A fire that refuses to die. No saints, no saviours — just us beneath these fractured skies.

Track Listing

Neon ruins, thundering hearts, and defiance in the wreckage — an anthem for anyone still dancing through the darkness. From intimate verses to a rapid-fire rap and a fractured-sky finale.

Behind the Scenes

How we built the world around Under a Broken Sky — from the first neon-and-ruin mood board to the rap that nearly didn't make the cut, and why the alternate mixes each tell a different shade of the same storm.

The full story lives in the studio diary: cinematic layers, the "we come alive" thread through the arrangement, and what changed when we stopped trying to sound polite about the apocalypse.

Lyrics

Hearts like thunder. Dancing through the darkness. Read the full formatted version on the lyrics page, or sing along here.

Verse 1

Neon shadows crawl across the empty street
Midnight whispers tangled in the wires at my feet
Every window glows like ghosts behind the rain
Every dream I ever touched comes back in black again

Pre-Chorus

I hear your name in the static
Cold like a kiss from the void
We were electric, tragic
Beautifully paranoid

Chorus

Under a broken sky, we're still burning bright
Dancing through the darkness, reaching for the light
Hearts like thunder, beating wild tonight
Under a broken sky, we come alive

Verse 2

Silver sirens crying from the corners of the night
Your silhouette is fading like a faulty satellite
I taste the ashes falling softly on my tongue
Like a hymn for the forsaken, half remembered, half unsung

Pre-Chorus

I feel your pulse in the silence
A fever under my skin
We are the last defiance
Let the end begin

Fast Rap

Yeah
Pressure in my chest, feel the weight of the world
Black dust in the lungs, watch the nightmare curl
Teeth grind, lights flash, now the signal cuts
Everybody wants peace till the whole thing erupts
Built in the breach where the cold winds blow
Head full of static and a heart down low
Every scar got a name, every name got a lie
Now I'm yelling at the dark underneath that sky
No sleep, no saints, no hands on the brakes
Just a soul half-dead and a body that breaks
Still I run through the fire with the ash in my eyes
Try to bury me down but I'm starting to rise
Tell me what's left when the hope burns out
When the love goes numb and the fear gets loud
I don't bend, don't break, gonna tear through the night
Under a broken sky, I was born to fight

Bridge

Black roses bloom in the afterglow
Cold hearts beat where the dead winds blow
If heaven's gone, let it disappear
I found my religion in the taste of fear

Breakdown

We move like smoke
We breathe like sin
The night pulls close
And drags us in
No saints, no saviours, no alibis
Just us beneath these fractured skies

Final Chorus

Under a broken sky, we're still burning bright
Dancing through the darkness, reaching for the light
Hearts like thunder, beating wild tonight
Under a broken sky, we come alive

Outro

Under a broken sky
Under a broken sky
We come alive
We come alive
Oh-oh
Oh-oh
Under a broken sky
