A collection of Songfics (Star Wars version)
Chapter 4: The Lost Battalion
This is the song The Lost Battalion. It is about the 2nd battle of Geonosis. It focuses on the 212th. It is of course by Sabaton but did you expect any leas of me? Now on to the song.
Far from their land as they made their stand
They stood strong and the Legend still lives on
The gunship wove between Geonosian ships as it tried to make it to the landing point. It was forced to land while under fire by the enemy. Many gunships never made it down.
1918 the Great War rages on
A battalion is lost in the Argonne
Under fire there's nothing they can do
There's no way they can get a message through
Suffer heavy losses as the battle carries on
Liberty division standing strong
The vehicles and gunships formed a circle around the remaining 212th troopers. Many had been killed while trying to land. They were cut off.
Far from their land as they made their stand
A disregarded demand
It's surrender or die and the stakes are high
They live or they die there's no time for goodbye
Weapon in hand they made their stand
Still disregarding demand
They would never comply they would rather die
Broke through the blockade they were finally saved
The soldiers fired constantly at the enemy. They took down many of the bugs.
Friendly fire munitions running low
The supplies they were dropped upon their foe
1918 the war still rages on
The battalion still trapped in the Argonne
Chose not to surrender they chose victory or defeat
Fallen brothers resting by their feet
The gunships and vehicles acting as barriers were targeted. They began exploding, killing those who took cover in or behind them. Help was far away. They were alone.
Far from their land as they made their stand
A disregarded demand
It's surrender or die and the stakes are high
They live or they die there's no time for goodbye
Weapon in hand they made their stand
Still disregarding demand
They would never comply they would rather die
Broke through the blockade they were finally saved
The soldiers fought on. They clung onto the hope that reinforcements would arrive on time. Things weren't looking good for the men.
Far from their land as they made their stand
A disregarded demand
It's surrender or die and the stakes are high
They live or they die there's no time for goodbye
Weapon in hand they made their stand
Still disregarding demand
They would never comply they would rather die
They stood strong and the Legend still lives on
Bravely they fought on. Many of the Geonosian troops fell to Republic blaster fire.
Suffered heavy losses through the Great War they stood strong
But the memory of the fallen still lives on
The soldiers kept on firing. They made sure to hold the landing zone. Even though it was held, many of the battalions soldiers met their deaths.

Broke through the blockade they were finally saved
Right as all hope seemed lost, 501st soldiers appeared. The Geonosian soldiers were forced to retreat. The remaining 212th had been saved.
Well, this wasn't that great. It kinda was okay but not really. I was stuck a bit but sort of came up with this. What is wrong with me? Anywho, if you want another songfic (it just took me 6 tries to spell that) send me a song name over PM or review. This is going to now be a collection of songfics made so every new songfic gets put here. Like all writers, I live off reviews. Constructive criticism allowed. Oh and here's the joke.
Where's the Lost Battalion?
They Argonne!
