Key Entity Extraction V: Sentry the Defiant Lyrics

Believer, your spotlights on the subject, so incorrect
And suggestion suggests that I'm someone you should not respect
Oh, you wear your facade so well
Covered up in a plastic shell
You're a liar to everyone around you
Just don't forget

Face the honest truth
You were never you, ooh

Now be defiant, the lion
Give them the fight that will open their eyes
Hangman hooded, softly swinging
Don't close the coffin yet, I'm alive

And it's homecoming
And it's homecoming

Can you remember when there was no wrong in what I could do?
So young, biting off way more than I could chew
And then one day I grew too old
And my cares were now theirs to mold
Please accept this as my resignation
It's time to go

Face the honest truth
You were never you, ooh

Now be defiant, the lion
Give them the fight that will open their eyes
Hangman hooded, softly swinging
Don't close the coffin yet, I'm alive
Oh, I'm alive

I will now bleed for what I believe in
No more mistakes for them to make for me
So goodbye, it's my time to be
To be me, to be

Face the honest truth
You were never you, ooh

Now be defiant, the lion
Give them the fight that will open their eyes
Hangman hooded, softly swinging
Don't close the coffin yet, I'm alive
I'm alive
I'm alive
I'm alive

Connection to principal craft has been lost
Attempt to reconnect in three, two, one, connection failed
Recalculating navigation via secondary mobile apparatus
Estimated speed, at falling rate of two hundred and sixty-three knots
Rate of survival, thirty-three percent

How long have we been away?

Approximate calculation, five-hundred and forty-seven days
Sirius, do you still want to go home?
