Death is an easy escape in this horrid war
But I am a man who will stand by the oath he swore
Here, on this island of fear, I will hold my ground
'Til I prevail or the enemy shoots me down
They told me to never surrender
And duty must always come first
But sometimes I can't help but wonder
If my life has somehow been cursed
Year after year, it goes on like an endless night
I carry on to pursue what I know is right
My enemies fall, one by one, in this foreign land
But then, from above, comes a message from high command
They say the war is all over
I don't believe what I hear
And though I may not grow much older
My duty is ever so clear:
On this island of fear, I shall remain
And I will not yield to whatever comes my way
It may be twenty-nine years before
I'm home again
But I will keep on fighting all the same
I will never surrender
I won't ever give up
I am bound by my honour
And I will never stop
If I ever surrender
It will all be for naught
And I'll lose all my honour
'Cause of the shame I've brought
