    Fallen Marines

    [Verse 1]

    I used to lead the marines

    We would push when I gave the word

    Now every night I go stow away
    Think about the aliens I used to slay
    They once were terrified
    Every time I looked into their eyes
    The marines would cheer my way
    For a hero I was, that's what they'd say
    One minute we had it all
    Next our base began to fall
    Away from all that it had once become
    They all cried for my help, but I stood there numb

    [Chorus]
    I gaze off into the boundless skyline
    Megaphone choirs playing in the sunshine
    Turn around, pick up my weapon and wield
    The gun that once forced evil aliens to yield
    And hope one day that this chaos and
    Destruction turns for the better
    Never a flamethrower in hand
    That was when I led the marines


    [Verse 2]
    It was the boilers and the ravagers
    Destroyed the cades and boxed us in
    Bullets whizzing by like streaks of light
    I tried all that I could to stay and fight
    As the xenos roamed the street
    PFCs broken at my feet
    Life itself suspended by a thread
    Oh, why was it that I wasn't dead?

    [Chorus]
    I gaze off into the boundless skyline
    Megaphone choirs playing in the sunshine
    Turn around, pick up my weapon and wield
    The gun that once forced evil aliens to yield
    And hope one day that this chaos and
    And if this battle should leave me slain
    I know Unga God will call my name
    Better to take a stand
    That was when I led the marines

    [Instrumental Bridge]



    [Chorus]
    I gaze off into the boundless skyline
    Megaphone choirs playing in the sunshine
    Turn around, pick up my weapon and wield
    The gun that once forced evil aliens to yield
    And hope one day that this chaos and
    And if this battle should leave me slain
    I know Unga God will call my name
    Better to take a stand
    That was when I led the marines

    I had no idea there were so many writers on the boards. I can only picture the actual vocals in my head.

    "Turn around, pick up my weapon and wield
    The gun that once forced evil aliens to yield"

    Little gems in this I'll find an excuse to quote myself. Thanks for this.
