[Verse 1: Female Rap] Ishii hit the mud where the red flags tore, Smoke shut the path, no trail anymore. Called Eidar’s name through the iron rain, Only the crack of the wall answered again. One glove caught fast on a splintered gate, She ripped it free; she would not wait. Boots in the gravel, breath turning white, She cut through the wreckage and searched by sight. [Pre-Chorus: Female Rap] Two knocks meant left, three meant stay, Their old code buried under the fray. She counted each doorway, each broken stair, Then heard one hard answer from somewhere there. [Chorus: Male Singing] Hold on, Eidar, I’m coming through, This place won’t keep me away from you. Hand to hand, through the smoke and stone, We leave this ruin as one, not alone. [Verse 2: Female Rap] Eidar dragged one leg past the collapsed machine, A strip of her sleeve caught sharp on a beam. He marked the wall with a smear of red clay, Then shoved through the gap where the sparks spat grey. He heard her call from the far side below, Broke through the boards where the cold winds blow. No map, no signal, no safe way around, Just her voice cutting clean through the grinding sound. [Pre-Chorus: Female Rap] One more locked door, one more turn, Hands on the hinge till the knuckles burn. She heard him answer, close and strained, And struck the latch till the whole frame gave. [Chorus: Male Singing] Hold on, Eidar, I’m coming through, This place won’t keep me away from you. Hand to hand, through the smoke and stone, We leave this ruin as one, not alone. [Bridge: Spoken] Ishii: Say my name. Eidar: Ishii. Ishii: Again. Eidar: I’m here. [Breakdown: Female Rap] Shoulder to shoulder, no space to fall, He took the first hit, she broke the wall. He pulled her clear; she covered his side, They made that narrow passage their way outside. One step, then another, the last chain gave, They climbed through the breach they had carved from the cave. [Final Chorus: Male Singing] Hold on, Ishii, I’m here with you, This place can’t keep us; we’re breaking through. Hand to hand, through the smoke and stone, We leave this ruin as one, not alone. [Outro: Male Singing] As one, not alone. Out of the dark, we go.
