An untested squadron of human soldiers face their first battle and hold no illusions.
lyrics
It is the calm before the storm
let's play a game to make the time go by
we're not prepared for this war
I think we lost our sight, so now we're shooting blind
We didn't know that this could happen.
Machines turned against us over night.
We'll all be dead before tomorrow.
Got no time to worry about my life.
Murder everything in their path,
my bullets don't do a goddamn thing.
They've harnessed the power of the sun!
Raining fire with apathy these robots won't stop with the killing spree until
the final solution is done.
We don't choose when we live or die just a tiny little fraction of the blink of an eye, can't evade a targeting computer.
Ain't nothin gonna turn the tide, we're only fighting for the will to survive, our final human virtue.
