[Intro] (Instrumental: Deep, resonant synth drones, distant industrial clanging, a lone mournful trumpet call, building into a heavy, marching rhythm with distorted guitars and pounding drums) [Verse 1] Beyond the rim, where starlight bleeds to grey The call went out, a desperate, dying plea From Terra's heart, besieged in disarray "Send aid! The darkness comes to claim the free!" From forge-worlds harsh, from dust-bowl colonies The Confederates awoke their slumb'ring might Great iron hulls, scarred by past victories Stirred from the void, ignited engines bright [Chorus] Iron from the Frontier! Answering the cry! Through the crimson void, beneath a dying sky! Shoulder-to-shoulder now, against the creeping night! Hell Divers hold the line, we bring the firelight! For Super Earth! We stand or fall as one! Until the final battle's fought, until the dying sun! [Verse 2] No fanfare marked their grim, relentless flight Just silent prayers to engines cold and deep Through nebula storms, a terrifying sight Old warships, ghosts, their ancient vows to keep The comms crackled, a voice both strained and grim: "Confed Navy inbound, Hell Divers, hold the breach! We bring the hammer, sharp and unforgiving To break the tide no single world could reach!" [Chorus] Iron from the Frontier! Answering the cry! Through the crimson void, beneath a dying sky! Shoulder-to-shoulder now, against the creeping night! Hell Divers hold the line, we bring the firelight! For Super Earth! We stand or fall as one! Until the final battle's fought, until the dying sun! [Bridge] See them fall! The drop-ships blaze like comets down! Hell Divers land amidst the alien sound! Blades and bolters flash in toxic air! While *we* rain fire from beyond despair! G*n batteries roar! A thunderous decree! Clearing the path for infantry! This pact in steel, this bond in b***d and flame Forged on the anvil of a galaxy aflame! [Guitar Solo] (Heavy, melodic, and slightly dissonant lead guitar work over the driving chorus rhythm, conveying both soaring defiance and deep melancholy) [Chorus] Iron from the Frontier! Answering the cry! Through the crimson void, beneath a dying sky! Shoulder-to-shoulder now, against the creeping night! Hell Divers hold the line, we bring the firelight! For Super Earth! We stand or fall as one! Until the final battle's fought, until the dying sun! [Outro] (Instrumental: The chorus melody fades, leaving only the heavy, slow, marching drumbeat and deep, distorted bass line. The mournful trumpet theme from the intro returns, now intertwined with the sound of distant, fading engine thrusters. The drumbeat slows further, becoming a funeral march, then ceases abruptly. Final deep synth drone and a single, echoing metallic impact.)
