Lyrics for the Table: Beacon

Sharing songs written in-game by my OC rockerboy K2 for the campaign Cyberpunk Red: Never Fade Away.

Album: Be Gay, Do Crime

Be Gay, Do Crime – sometimes shortened to BGDC – is the second album released by K2. The album is a love letter to The Runaways, with each song written for one particular member.

Track One

Beacon

Written for Smoke

Like moths drawn to the flame
Burned we feel no shame
We aren’t the ones to blame
For the city we became
 
Lift high the torch of revolution
That will spark imagination
Of better lives and better days
Until the spark becomes a blaze
Beacons in the night
 
Burned away corruption
Cauterized infection
Everyone a soldier
Wearing scars of honor
Beacons in the night
 
Like moths drawn to the flame
Burned we feel no shame
We aren’t the ones to blame
For the city we became
 
It’s a dragon’s age of fire
Incense and funeral pyre
It’s the scorched-earth policy
Of warrior Valkyries
Beacons in the night 
 
Like moths drawn to the flame
Burned we feel no shame
We aren’t the ones to blame
For the city we became
 
Ready
Aim
Fire
