Make Way For the Moon

Lyrics

[Intro — whispered over rising drums] The mountain broke. The silence stirred. I heard my name— And nothing more. [Beat drops] Make way. [Verse 1] Black silk dragging over broken stone, Hear my heels where the cold winds moan. Violet fire in the marks on my face, I walk through the doors of a long-dead place. Fifty years with a past I can’t find, Only dreams of another life. You can ask what the ice held back— Watch my eyes when the world goes black. [Pre-Chorus] Feel that shiver beneath your feet? See that silver between my teeth? One more breath and the shadows bloom— Make way for the moon. [Chorus] Make way! Make way! Hear my name through the thunder. Spekai! Spekai! Let the night pull you under. Horns held high, let the cold light burn, Every eye on me when I turn. Stand your ground or give me room— Make way for the moon. [Verse 2] I see your heat through the falling snow, Every little fear that your breath won’t show. A crescent sharpens above my hand; Keep your word if you mean to stand. I’ve got room for a hand I trust, I’ve got claws for the ones who crush. Touch someone I have called my own— You’ll learn why I travel alone. [Pre-Chorus] Hear that crack in the frozen floor? Something’s moving behind the door. One more step and the shadows bloom— Make way for the moon. [Chorus] Make way! Make way! Hear my name through the thunder. Spekai! Spekai! Let the night pull you under. Horns held high, let the cold light burn, Every eye on me when I turn. Stand your ground or give me room— Make way for the moon. [Breakdown — half-time, spoken] Who sealed the ice? Who knew my name? Let them come forward. Let them explain. [Drums build] Until they do— Remember this face. [Final Chorus — full choir] Make way! Make way! Hear my name through the thunder. Spekai! Spekai! Let the night pull you under. Black scales gleam and the silk unfurls, Two bright eyes on a waking world. Say my name when I enter the room— Cecilia. Make way for the moon. [Outro — abrupt final hit] I’m awake.
