[Intro]
Level twenty-two
Something came out of the dark
Fast
(how many)
(counting)
(Aldric how many)
(still counting)
(ALDRIC)
(eleven)
[Verse 1]
Eleven of them
Against eight of us
The Queen was already in position
(she is always already in position)
(how)
(she just is)
They did not introduce themselves
(rude)
(very rude)
The one at the front burned
The way something burns
When it has been waiting
A very long time
To find you specifically
[Pre-Chorus]
The Hero went left
(correct left this time)
(huge)
The Swan was three steps ahead
The Laborer picked up something heavy
(where did he get that)
(I do not know)
Aldric narrated
(flank left)
(two coming from the ridge)
(ALDRIC)
(I am helping)
[Chorus]
Sunburn
Something that came looking found us instead
Sunburn
We did not start this
(we finished it)
Sunburn
Eleven against eight
And they did not check
What eight looks like
When eight already knows
How to move
[Bridge — drops to half tempo]
They faced each other
The Hunter did not raise his bow immediately
(first time)
He said: I know who you are
Scorpius said: I know who you are too
Longer than you think
The Hunter raised his bow
Scorpius moved first
(fast)(very fast)(stinger, heat, burn)
The Hunter was faster
(of course)
(he had a very long time to prepare for this specific moment)
[Final Chorus]
Sunburn
The one who came looking is on the ground
Sunburn
Mythology does not always go
The way it went before
Sunburn
Eight against eleven
And we are still eight
[Outro]
The one on the ground looked up
He said: I came to collect
(collect what)
The bounties on your heads
(bounties)(plural)(on all of us)
He said: every last one of you
(how much)
He did not say
He walked away with what remained of his eleven
