[Suki Setsuna] I woke with the blade in hand Every time death came near It left me with one more scar And one more memory clear My demon-cutting steel Has known my name from the start I lost the girl I was But I kept the fire in my heart [Rurahel Byost] I wear a human face Till the cold takes hold of me Then I break the sky in white And the whole field turns to sea I breathe a storm of ice I make a fortress of the air If they come for my team They find a dragon nightmare [Zero] In the blackened smoke He learned to walk inside the night But the dark that gave him power Turned his mind into a fight [Ayane Ijima] I saw good inside the rot I tried to save what should not bend When the corruption took my hands I gave my life to bring you back again [Chorus] Strike Squad Five, hold the line We lost some names in the fire Strike Squad Five, still we rise We push back higher and higher (Darkness fall) (We stand tall) Strike Squad Five, hear us call We were broken, still alive Strike Squad Five, all in one [Väker] Carved from stone I carry prayers in every crack The gods still know my shape When the black flood drives us back I stand between my friends And the teeth of every curse If the world goes hard and cold I go harder, and I hold it first [Veiness] I’ve sailed through broken lands With a grin and a gambler’s eye I talk a blade down low When the monster wants to bite I look for one good spark In the worst soul in the room If I can keep us sane Then I’ve already cut the doom [Ita] I carry bone for wings Pluck the arrows like playing strings Pierce em, flay em Make em smolder [Sister Koko] on my shoulder Keep the pace watch our speed Let Rurahel take the lead [Chorus] Strike Squad Five, hold the line We lost some names in the fire Strike Squad Five, still we rise We push back higher and higher (Darkness fall) (We stand tall) Strike Squad Five, hear us call We were broken, still alive Strike Squad Five, all in one [Bridge] [Suki] I remember every ending Every blade that met my chest [Rurahel] I remember frozen thunder Every monster put to rest [Zero] I remember laughing shadows Then the room went dark and wild [Ayane] I gave my breath to save you To bring back one To bring you back my child [Väker] Stone by stone, we stayed unbroken Prayers in the dust and bone [Veiness] Talk me down, then march me forward No one walks this road alone [Ita] Through the ruined, crooked kingdom Through the hunger, through the pain [All] We are the hand that holds the dawn We are the name that stays [Final Chorus] Strike Squad Five, hold the line We lost some names in the fire Strike Squad Five, still we rise We push back higher and higher (Darkness fall) (We stand tall) Strike Squad Five, hear us call We were broken, still alive Strike Squad Five, all in one Strike Squad Five, all in one Strike Squad Five, one and all [Thank You]
