| This track plays during the battle between the [[Jiralhanae]], [[Mgalekgolo]], and the [[Sangheili]] in the [[Mausoleum of the Arbiter]] at the end of the ''[[Halo 2]]'' level ''[[Gravemind (level)|Gravemind]]'', though it plays with the lyrics almost muted. The music plays on a loop until all enemies are eliminated. The introduction of the song, with its characteristic bell chime, can be heard during the level ''[[Outskirts]]'', before [[John-117]] encounters a convoy of {{Pattern|Ruwaa|Shadow}}s in the highway tunnel.

| | They fall in line |
| | One at a time |
| | Ready to play |
| | I can't see them anyway |
| | No time to lose |
| | We've got to move |
| | Steady your hand |
| | I am losing sight again |

| The track was replaced by ''[[Breaking the Covenant]]'' in the ''[[Halo 2: Anniversary]]'' [[Halo 2: Anniversary Original Soundtrack|soundtrack]] and corresponding gameplay section. The bell chime in the introduction was reorchestrated into the opening of ''[[Moon Over Mombasa]]''.
