"The Ballad of the Drifting Free" 4k (Intro Song For Firefly Watch & Review)
Verse 1)
Take me out where the black don’t blink,
Past the core-world lights that stink of ink.
We’re a ragged crew on a rusted keel,
Chasin’ freedom’s ghost with a turn of the wheel.
No gov, no chain, no station’s call—
Just the dark, the dark, and the dark for all.
(Chorus)
Out in the void where the stars don’t care,
We drift like smoke on the thin cold air.
Five souls bound by a wanderin’ vow:
To live untaxed and to die right now.
(Verse 2)
There’s Sunker Maiden, sharp as a blade,
Judges your worth by the shows you’ve played.
One eye on the screen, one eye on your soul—
“Trash feeds trash,” she says, “and that’s how we roll.”
She’ll quote you a line from a banned old reel,
Then damn your heart if the laugh ain’t real.
(Chorus)
Out in the void where the stars don’t care…
(Verse 3)
Handy Newsman, mic in his fist,
Broadcasts truth through the static mist.
Every port, every rock, every moonlit bar,
Hears the signal hum like a steel guitar.
He trades in facts that the core won’t print—
And the price is blood, but he never flinches a hint.
(Verse 4)
Mrs. Common Nerd sips tea from a cracked old mug,
Sneers at the drunks while the sitcoms shrug.
She’ll mock your flask, then quote every frame—
Knows the laugh track’s fake, but loves it the same.
Her scorn’s a shield, her comfort’s the glow;
Hypocrisy’s warm in the deep black snow.
(Chorus)
Out in the void where the stars don’t care…
(Verse 5)
Griffin sits wise on the engine’s hum,
Scales of history under his thumb.
He’ll weigh your quarrel with a date and a name,
Then cite a war that ended the same.
Fair as sunrise, cold as the void—
His verdict’s final, and never annoyed.
(Verse 6)
Common Nerd rants till the bulkheads shake,
Patchin’ the hull with curses and tape.
He swears at the nav, he swears at the fuel,
Keeps the whole damn ship from playin’ the fool.
His fury’s the glue, his panic’s the spark—
Without his mad roar, we’d all go dark.
(Final Chorus)
Out in the void where the stars don’t care,
We drift like smoke on the thin cold air.
Five misfit hearts on a lawless run—
Free till the black claims every last one.
Take my love, take my land, take me where I cannot stand—
I don’t care, I’m still free; you can’t take the sky from me.
