The appeal of pathos is used heavily in the lyrics of Starlight Brigade. One example of this is the lyric "Last thoughts of a life by candlelight." This lyric inspires nostalgia in the listener and makes the audience think about how thrilling leaving their lesser life behind in search of a grander one would be. Another example of pathos in the lyrics is seen in the lyrics "Escape the endless dream of space, black seas that I can't navigate" and "Halfway between the black and gray is no place for a life to waste away." These two lyrics describe the fear of failure. The "endless dream of space" and "halfway between the black and gray" both describe the state of wishing you could be more than you are. These lyrics appeal to the emotion of hope, as it motivates the audience to move forward and go for their dreams, rather than "waste away" sitting idly.

The first appeal present in the lyrics is logos. One example of this is the lyric "I'll take the road with all the stakes." This lyric is a description of Avidan's thinking when it came to achieving his dream. Instead of playing it safe, he took the riskiest path to achieve his goals no matter the risks. Another example of logos in the lyrics is the lyric "No fate but that of which we make." This is a statement that describes how no one will achieve anything unless they try. This is effective at convincing the audience to take the leap and try things with Avidan's life and success as proof.
