Countdown, descending down to zero
Bursting into flames
Can't you see the coming of a hero
On this enchanting day

So stand up and be counted
In the solar glance in the desert sand
No longer the hunted
United we are 'till the day we fall

A chain unbreakable
Every link is allied to our mighty vow

We're blood bound, we aim for the sun
The luminous moon will take us high over ground
We're blood bound, collecting the stars
We hold a power that is greater than all
We're blood bound

Watch out, the heathens all around us
Always watch your back
We've got a lust for freedom
Whatever they say we know we'll stay

We are indestructible
And no matter what happens we will rise above

We're blood bound, we aim for the sun
The luminous moon will take us high over ground
We're blood bound, collecting the stars
We hold a power that is greater than all
We're blood bound

Look into my eyes
Tell me what is hidden deep inside
Chains about to break
It's the everlasting freedom for us all

We're blood bound, we aim for the sun
The luminous moon will take us high over ground
We're blood bound, collecting the stars
We hold a power together

We're blood bound, we aim for the sun
The luminous moon will take us high over ground
We're blood bound, collecting the stars
We hold a power to kill
We're blood bound, we aim for the sun
The luminous moon will take us high over ground
We're blood bound, collecting the stars
We hold a power to kill, blood bound
Power forever, blood bound
Power, we're blood bound
