Domino Main, Domino One. Currently advancing through Grid Echo-7 towards objective, over. Copy that, Domino One. Proceed with caution. We have reports of Tangos in your AO. Good Copy, Domino Main. Going radio silent. Out. Acknowledged, Domino One. QRF is on standby. Out. [CHORUS] He doesn't do it for the likes, and definitely not the fame When the stakes are life and death, the best solution is his name Domino, Domino, moves like a silent whisper through the night Like a great cat his prey in sight, trust him to make it right His name strikes fear in the darkest corners, takes away their breath Domino, Domino, with deepest dedication, will succeed in life or death (death....death!!!!) [VERSE 1] Every move so calculated, with a warriors grace Closer toward objective, resolve upon his face Moved within the shadows, scans urban terrain Actions with a purpose, no upperhand will they gain. While honed like a weapon, needs but one finger to kill He lives only for the mission, prays no blood need spill [BRIDGE] Domino Main, Domino one. Undetected and inside the perimeter. Continuing toward objective. Out!! Acknowledged, Domino One. Watch your six. Out....(Out....OUT!!!) [VERSE 2] Objective now in sight, only guarded by a few His eye to recticle, lines up targets in his view Hears a stumble to his left, a small child cries out His cover now blown, as more around him start to shout He tells the child to run, aims and lets the hammer drop The bodies of his foes, in unison cascade to ground His position gets lit up, as hailstorm starts to pound. [BRIDGE] Domino Main, Domino one. Contact, atleast 10 Tangos converging on my location. Engaging Acknowledged, Domino One. QRF is being deployed but they are 30 Mikes out. Over. Domino Main, Roger. Time to get to work!!! Domino One Out!! [CHORUS] He doesn't do it for the likes, and definitely not the fame When the stakes are life and death, the best solution is his name Domino, Domino, moves like a silent whisper through the night Like a great cat his prey in sight, trust him to make it right His name strikes fear in the darkest corners, takes away their breath Domino, Domino, with deepest dedication, will succeed in life or death (death....death!!!!) [BRIDGE] [Radio Transmission: Southern Male Vocal]Alpha Main. Atleast seven tangos neutralized. Moving to secure objective in northwest structure. OUT. [Radio Transmission: Female Vocal]Roger, Alpha One. Continue advancing. Proceed with caution, out. (out....OUT!!!) [VERSE 3] Now inside, he spies the case, its firmly in his hand Secured the package, scans around absorbs the lay of the land Outside voices getting closer, preparing for a fight Locked and loaded, seeks an exit to fade into the night Lunges out a window, slow is smooth and smooth is fast Two more drop where once they stood, as he's rocked by blast [BRIDGE] Alpha Main. Package in hand, enroute to LZ for exfil. Two more down. Over! Acknowledged, Alpha One. Reinforcements ETA seven Mikes. Maintain situational awareness, Over! Alpha Main. Looks like I picked up some extra weight. Sustained a shrapnel injury, and its slowing me down, OVER!(over....OVER!!!) [OUTRO] Eye in the sky watches closely as scene plays out Enemies close on Domino, raises worries and more doubt As quick as they approach, he plants them in the ground But their numbers multiply, as they flood into compound Overwhelmed he's hit again, he knows the fight is done, A hush within in the TOC, Domino falls under rising sun. (sun.....SUN!!!) [BRIDGE] Alpha Main. Looks like I am getting my ticket checked. Let my wife and daughter know I love them and its for them that I protect. Acknowledged, Alpha One. Reinforcements are two Mikes out. Just hang on!!!, Over! Alpha Main. Cant afford to have the package fall into enemies hands. Willie Pete... frag out!!! OUT!(out....OUT!!!) [CHORUS] He doesn't do it for the likes, and definitely not the fame When the stakes are life and death, the best solution is his name Domino, Domino, moves like a silent whisper through the night Like a great cat his prey in sight, trust him to make it right His name strikes fear in the darkest corners, takes away their breath Domino, Domino, with deepest dedication, will succeed in life or death (death....death!!!!) [FADE TO END] [END]
