Lyrics:

Salt wind tangles long hair across her brow
As the black tide hums beneath the prow
Maps inked deep with many scars
The Tidal Flight will chase the stars
The sea claimed her parents years ago
But her father’s voice a balm for woe
Echoes through her life like a steady drum
He taught her how to track the storm
Upon the raven’s wing she soars

[Chorus]
She sails with courage, her heart is kind,
The golden aviary close behind.
Yet in the wind, a question forms—
What lies ahead beyond the storms?

She asked the king of the pirates for his hand,
He laughed and said, “First, you must command
A ship of your own, make the oceans bow—
Then come to me, and stand up proud.”
So she carved her name in the timber strong,
The crew lift a song--
and stamped their feet
A tricorn hat upon her brow
The tossing sea beneath her feet

[Chorus]
She sails with courage, her heart is kind,
The golden aviary close behind.
Yet in the wind, a question forms—
What lies ahead beyond the storms?

She deals in favors—her word is iron
Her purse is full, but her smile forthright
But deep in the Shade where no sun burns,
A creature waits for the debt he earns.
His memory is long and temper short
For Kanan would not stand silent by
As Bonnie’s name was dragged through mud
And the insult was answered in blood
Across the fathoms another threat awaits
A monster yet waits beneath the waves—
A hungry maw and a black sea gate

[Chorus]
She sails with courage and steady mind,
The golden aviary close behind.
Yet in the wind, a question forms—
What lies ahead beyond the storms?

[Bridge - Kanan solo]
What waits beyond that shadowed blue?
A storm to break me, or a fate brand new?
A dagger’s whisper, a lover’s lie—
The sea will judge, and so will I.
For I was born where the dark storm riles
And the moon shines down upon the Boards

[Outro]
So here I stand at the quarter’s rail,
Dreams ahead on a midnight wake
I’ll chase the wind, the sea’s dark form—
Till I learn what lies beyond the storm
