Lyrics
(Verse 1)
Sunset over Elmsworth, shadows growing long,
Sergeant Dawson scans the horizon, standing strong,
Weeks of holding ground, the 42nd stands tall,
Battle-hardened soldiers, they’ve endured it all.
(Pre-Chorus)
Fresh-faced recruits turned warriors of steel,
Scars seen and unseen, a bond that's real,
In a ghost town of memories, where life used to flow,
They guard the line, in the afterglow.
(Chorus)
Echoes of valor, in the heart of the night,
United they stand, ready to fight,
With every shot fired, and every shout,
They hold the line, casting fear out.
(Verse 2)
Emily at his side, brave and so keen,
New to the fight, yet with a heart serene,
“Any sign of them?” her voice breaks through,
Michael’s steady reply, “Stay alert, they’re due.”
(Pre-Chorus)
Huddled in trenches, the tension grows,
In the ruins of Elmsworth, where the cold wind blows,
Suddenly, gunfire, the silence is torn,
Michael’s voice commands, in the early morn.
(Chorus)
Echoes of valor, in the heart of the night,
United they stand, ready to fight,
With every shot fired, and every shout,
They hold the line, casting fear out.
[heavy solo]
(Bridge)
[emotional}
Hours turn to minutes, as the battle peaks,
Emily’s sharpshooting, the enemy’s defeat,
Reinforcements arrive, the tide starts to turn,
Enemy retreats, their plans overturned.
(Chorus)
Echoes of valor, in the heart of the night,
United they stand, ready to fight,
With every shot fired, and every shout,
They hold the line, casting fear out.
(Outro)
[epic outro}
Around the fire, Michael’s words ring clear,
“We stood our ground, we have nothing to fear,”
More battles to come, but their spirits are high,
In unity and bravery, they’ll never die.
Echoes of valor, lighting the way,
Through the darkest of times, to a brighter day,
The war will continue, but so will their fight,
Guided by courage, in the darkest night.
