Blood, Sand, and Steel
I see the hills before me.
I see sand spread like a blight.
But these hills are our last defence,
And for them, we now fight.
…
The Resistance stands beside me.
Soldiers, allies, friends.
Trenches, foxholes all in place,
We'll all fight to the end.
…
Egg Pawns are before us.
The Eggman Empire's banner flies.
The doctor's forces taint the land,
While above, drones fill the skies.
…
A never-ending tide of steel.
A rolling, metal flood.
Lasers fired, scorch the air.
Upon the sand falls oil, blood.
…
Behind us, our last bastion.
Before us, our damnation.
We fight, hope for a miracle,
But there's no sign of salvation.
…
We thought we could fight till the end.
But it's numbers that we lack.
An affront to our bravery,
But we're ordered to fall back.
…
None of us lack conviction.
But South Island stands alone.
And destruction marches onward.
Guided from a steel throne.
