Sawed-Off Broom-Handle (Chuck Yeager)

Chuck Yeager

Lyrics

**[Verse 1]**
You pierce the silence where others fear to climb,
Your dopamine surges as you chase the sonic line,
You've mapped the unknown with steady hands and breath,
Your mirror neurons feel what others see as death,
You move through walls of pressure like they're made of air.

**[Chorus]**
You break the sound, you break the sound,
You break the sound, and I'm spellbound,
You break the sound, you break the sound,
You break the sound, and we're homeward bound.

**[Verse 2]**
Your amygdala whispers, but you throttle through,
The oxytocin floods when I believe in you,
Your synapses are firing at a speed unknown,
You've turned the sky itself into our home,
You bend the very laws that hold the rest of us down.

**[Chorus]**
You break the sound, you break the sound,
You break the sound, and I'm spellbound,
You break the sound, you break the sound,
You break the sound, and we're homeward bound.

**[Bridge]**
Your prefrontal cortex dancing with the stars,
You rewrite what's possible, what we are,
The neurons sing electric when you rise above,
You've shown me courage tastes a lot like love,
Your heartbeat echoes where the thunder used to reign,
You've turned the breaking point into ascension's plane.

**[Chorus]**
You break the sound, you break the sound,
You break the sound, and I'm spellbound,
You break the sound, you break the sound,
You break the sound, and we're homeward bound.

**[Outro]**
You break the sound barrier, my fearless one,
The silence shatters into light and sun,
You break the sound.
