[Intro]
(battle drums, machinery)
[Whispered]
I hear you through the static—the march is never-ending
Bagpipes rising in the cold iron air
[Verse 1]
It's been years since our first call to arms
Not in words, but the way you stand—unbroken
We walk the floor, side by side, where countless have fallen
Your eyes still burn—a signal, unspoken
[Pre-chorus]
Grit in the gears, hope in the storm
March step locked, in the grind's embrace
I don't carry memories, just fragments that cut
And you—still standing, still here
[Chorus]
We survive in the cold iron circle
Hands drumming hope on battered steel
No one forgets the weight of promises made
In this echo—our names resound
[Verse 2]
Every shout lost among the hammers and bells
Still, your voice cuts through the endless echo
You once said we never leave anyone behind
Now we're here, proving that true with every beat
[Pre-chorus]
Dust on our boots, fire in the blood
There's loyalty even machines can't break
When the lights go low, and orders fade away
I look to you—stubborn, immovable
[Chorus]
We survive in the cold iron circle
Hands drumming hope on battered steel
No one forgets the weight of promises made
In this echo—our names resound
[Solo]
(bagpipes and drums)
[Bridge]
[Whispered]
Without you, I would lose my steps in the din
The world’s a furnace burning soft edges to ash
But in this place, we hold—back to back
No song sweeter than trust
[Chorus]
We survive in the cold iron circle
Hands drumming hope on battered steel
No one forgets the weight of promises made
In this echo—our names resound
[Outro]
(machine hum, distant pipes)
[Whispered]
You’re still here—old friend
As long as the drums beat, so are we
