[Intro]
The sky burns red…
Smoke fills the air…
Commissar look at me…
“Hold the line.”
Yes, Commissar. Big gun ready.
Armor heavy.
Brothers falling all around.
Chaos screaming.
Bolters roaring.
Still my boots stay on the ground.
Commissar leave.
Need more men.
Say he come back soon.
I nod my head.
Grip my shield.
Pray beneath black moon. ⸻
[Verse 1]
Big gun ready.
Armor heavy.
Brothers falling all around.
Chaos screaming.
Bolters roaring.
Still my boots stay on the ground.
Commissar leave.
Need more men.
Say he come back soon.
I nod my head.
Grip my shield.
Pray beneath black moon.
⸻
[Pre-Chorus]
I not smart…
I not fast…
I only know one thing…
⸻
[Chorus]
Hold the line!
Hold the line!
Until you come for me!
Hold the line!
Hold the line!
For Him on Terra see!
Blood may fall…
Bones may break…
My feet stay where they be!
Hold the line!
Hold the line!
Yes…
Commissar…[Verse 2]
Chaos laughing.
Blades keep cutting.
Armor cracked and vision blurred.
Every heartbeat.
Every footstep.
Still remember every word.
Left arm broken.
Gun run empty.
Now I swing with steel.
Every monster.
Every daemon.
Learn how Ogryn feel. [Bridge]
Legs hurt…
Hands shake…
Can’t see…
Still here…
Still standing…
Still holding…
Commissar…
I keep promise…[Final Chorus]
Hold the line!
Hold the line!
I hear the thunder roll!
Imperial banners!
Lasguns blazing!
Hope returns my soul!
Commissar smiling.
Guards advancing.
Victory fills the sky!
I held the line…
I held the line…
Just like…
You asked…[Outro]
Commissar…
You came back…
I knew…
You would.
For the Emperor.
