This is the story of a girl who had a dream.
Her father, murdered; her mother, forever changed.
She felt alone in the world, until the day she met them.
They were two other lost souls like her; wanderers led astray, even at such a young age.
As time went on their bond strengthened. They searched long and hard for their place in life... and yet, something was still missing.
Time continued to pass and with it, the feeling of incompleteness grew. Until one day... a plan was hatched and their lives would change forever.
I am Jade Tyriana, Captain of the Sunlance. And this is our story.

Village by the Sea

Welcome to our village by the sea
A farming town right next to a factory
Three of us, we met when we were young
We rejected their ideals of love
And identity
Though young
We may be we aren't free
Their hate
Has brought us to misery
In time
We will escape from this life
Queer love
Will bring us through darkest night
When your life's so
Under control
You yearn to be free from safety
I watch the sky so
Hopeful and though
I am stuck here, I won't let go

High above the mountains
Zeppelins fly like birds in the sky
I wish to be among them
It's my dream, it always will be
To fly high
On my life
But this plan, it's pure folly!
We can't possibly pull this off
It's a dangerous idea
If we even so much as cough...
I will be
A sky pirate
We'll be there!
See them dance up there
See them fly through the air
We will be with them soon
As we steal this ship
Must make sure we don't trip
As we join in the waltz of the airships

She Will Lead Me Home
04:55
|
|

I was lost, alone, confused
In a darker place
Then she came to me on silent wings
True to life I came to be
Took me from a place of misery
And now we're free
She will lead me home
To the place I
Long to be
She is my dream
Oblis knows the truth
I am with her in my sleep
She speaks to me
In the silent corners of my heart
A dream was born
A hope deep inside me
She revealed the way
Realized my dream
She must know
I love her so

Splitting the Stars
05:29
|
|

We need a captain
Someone to guide the way
Or we'll get nowhere
So Jade what do you say?
Do you recall what we've been through
Why we should put our faith in you
We won't look back we will pull through
As we begin this life anew
I don't understand this
But I trust your judgement so
I will be the captain
Where shall this vessel go?
Set a course for a faraway land
Our fate is left to be ours
With this ship we have taken command
And we will split the stars
I do recall what we've been through
Why I have put my faith in you
We won't look back, we will pull through
Now we begin this life anew!

Ride the
Storm cloud
Unknown
Destiny
Rain
Every day we tried
To act just right
Storm
Still we never did
Our hopes denied
Drown
Love we never knew
And never sought
Pain
Love we must eschew
For we'd be caught
My heart is burning as we sail away
I shall return when time is right
And as the sun will alight our day
The stars will guide us through the night

Amidst the Sky Riders
06:58
|
|
||
Wind everlasting
Among the seas and stars
Guide our journey
As we begin to fly
Fly high on stormy wings
Ride amongst the clouds
Fly high with aerial kings
Riders of the sky
Our destination
Where will we find our fate?
We know not where
We can no longer wait
We fly out to the sea
To find the answers that we seek
And the silence surrounds
As darkness falls
The riders
The destiny
The skies
The sea
The power
Surrounds us
The stars
Recede

Epilogue

And so we set off into the great unknown, leaving behind only memories of childhoods long gone.
The three of us, armed only with our wits and a freshly stolen airship, prepared to make new lives as pirates of the sky.
We were uncertain, yes, but the trust we had in each other steeled our resolve.
We knew not what lay ahead; only that it would be a grand adventure.
