Last crate is loaded in the hold Captain gives the signal, release the locks Steel hull groans as we leave the station Europa fades behind frozen glass One more contract, one more payment Explosives bound for an outpost ahead A mile below the ice and dropping Nothing unusual, that's what we said Warning lights paint red on metal Captain clipped a rock on the canyon wall Water rushing through compartment seven Grab the welder, patch it before we stall Pumps are choking, drain it faster Crew is yelling through the radio haze Fuel rod's empty, swap another Keep the reactor alive for another day [Explosion] [gas leak sound] [beeping alarm] Pressure keeps pressing on my bones The ocean wants this vessel gone One more repair, one more breath Keep moving forward, carry on Pressure's getting heavier, I won't give in Came too far already just to sink within Europa's ocean pulling at my skin But I refuse to let it win Crew of one, still standing here Holding the line against the fear If this sub goes down tonight I'll finish the job before I disappear Breaker sparks and then goes silent Power dies across the deck Something strikes against the hull Hard enough to bend the frame Bodies drifting through the ballast Some forgot their suits in time Chest feels tight, vision narrowing Swap the bottle, keep the systems alive Seal the breach, close the hatch Check the junction, patch the batch Load the coilgun, track the mark Something moving through the dark Motion contacts, three or four Hammerheads outside the door Reactor stable, barely so Keep the engine running low Flooding aft and flooding fore Water crawling across the floor Grab the ammo, hold the line Not today, this life is mine Claws on metal, teeth on steel I don't care what wounds I feel One last dive, one last stand Finish the contract as planned Pressure keeps pressing on my bones The ocean wants this vessel gone One more repair, one more breath Keep moving forward, carry on Pressure's getting heavier, I won't give in Came too far already just to sink within Europa's ocean pulling at my skin But I refuse to let it win Crew of one, still standing here Holding the line against the fear If this sub goes down tonight I'll finish the job before I disappear Earth is gone beyond the void Nobody's coming from above Only steel and stubborn hands Keeping this machine alive Pressure's getting heavier, still I remain Bruised and bleeding, but I break no chain Europa can drown me in freezing rain Still I'll rise and fight again Crew of one beneath the ice Paid in scars and sacrifice Ocean, take your final shot I've survived worse than you've got When the station lights appear I'll know the end of this frontier Contract done, engines humming And tomorrow we'll dive again
