Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Mud on my boots
Blood on my braid
I plant my feet
In the gate they made
The ridge burns red
With spear and flame
My crew pulls back
I call their names
[Pre-Chorus]
Go on, run
Take the road
I’ll stay here
And hold the load
No step back
No line to break
I bought you time
That’s what I make
[Chorus]
Hold the line
Hold the line (hold the line)
I’ll buy the dawn
With my skin and iron spine
Hold the line
Hold the line (hold the line)
If I fall tonight
Then the rest still climb
[Verse 2]
Axes strike
Like hammer rain
Three men fall
And I smile through pain
My shield splits
My arm turns numb
Still I stand
Where the dead wind comes
Their banners flood
The hill like crows
I spit my fear
And bare my bones
[Pre-Chorus]
Go on, run
Take the road
I’ll stay here
And hold the load
No step back
No line to break
I bought you time
That’s what I make
[Chorus]
Hold the line
Hold the line (hold the line)
I’ll buy the dawn
With my skin and iron spine
Hold the line
Hold the line (hold the line)
If I fall tonight
Then the rest still climb
[Bridge]
[Breakdown]
Let them come
Let them roar
I’ve fought ten lives
I can fight one more
My name in ash
My heart in flame
Tell my kin
I did not shame
[Final Chorus]
Hold the line
Hold the line (hold the line)
I’ll buy the dawn
With my skin and iron spine
Hold the line
Hold the line (hold the line)
If I fall tonight
Then the rest still climb
Hold the line
Hold the line (hold the line)
When the army breaks
They’ll remember my name

Style
Epic metal with galloping double-kick rhythms, sharp palm-muted guitars, and a marching tom-driven verse; verse stays tense and narrative, pre-chorus climbs with stacked gang vocals, chorus hits wide with shouted doubles on the anchor phrase. Add rising warhorn swells before each chorus, a brief breakdown with tribal drums and battle cries in the bridge, then a final chorus with bigger harmonies and cymbal crashes. Bright, aggressive, and cinematic mix with a punchy low end.
