    The year is 2062. We are husks, a remnant of humanity. Do not let them censor the information surrounding the 2030 Beilan Island incident. You are in charge, commander.
    Lyrics:
    --------------------------------------
    City streets and tourniquets
    Puppet strings and marionettes
    Humanity pays an iron debt
    Democracy erodes and in the end you know it's a state run red
    Blind me to your cruelty
    All your money can't compare
    You tell me that my home is not my home
    Well I'll sacrifice myself down to the bone
    Are we dolls or do we have will of our own?
    Do we know who's in control?
    Not one less, not one less
    My right eye for my protest
    Not one less, not one less
    Can't suppress what you oppress
    Blood across the sky
    All for asking why
    I am not afraid to die
    I'm afraid to live in a world constructed on your lie
    Blind me to your cruelty
    All your power can't compare
    Tell me that my home is not my home
    Well I'll sacrifice myself down to the bone
    Are we dolls or do we have will of our own?
    Do we know who's in control?
    Not one less, not one less
    My right eye for my protest
    Not one less, not one less
    Can't suppress what you oppress
    They push me down into the dirt
    Twist the screw in, make it hurt
    Breathing gas and gasoline
    I will never be a part of your regime
    So I'll push myself through tears
    Fly my flag through all my fears
    Not one less is what I scream
    I will never be a part of your regime
    I'm a machine
    Left out in the cold
    A nuclear winter fuels my soul
    I'm a machine
    Left out in the cold
    A nuclear winter fuels my soul

    While this song nods to other events in real life, it is based on the lore of Girls Frontline. Beilan Island is the site where a major accident occured that wiped a large majority of humans off the face of the Earth. In the game Girls Frontline, you play as a commander of a private military contractor that uses humanoid androids known as T-Dolls or tactical dolls. Each are repurposed civilian use androids, (because of funding restraints and because of low manpower due to the catastrophe), and are named after the gun they use. Currently, in the story, we were backstabbed and framed by the Military and forced to go rogue and state media portrays us as dangerous terrorists. We as a private military contractor have WAY less weaponry and technology compared to the Military and often we are forced to escape, or use underhanded tactics just try to survive. We are the clear underdogs. This song perfectly describes the story so far in GFL.

    I also appreciate the look into GFL's darker lore, the struggle within each doll asking if they're really a person or not.

    Everyone's talking about WWIII and Girl's Frontline but the lyrics are actually about Hong Kong lol.
    "Not One Less" is a reference to a protest slogan - "Five Demands, Not One Less".
    "My right eye for my protest" is a reference to the girl who was blinded in one eye after getting rubber bulleted by the police.

    • @Spice

      That and "My right eye for my protest
      " is a direct reference to the one girl who went blind in one eye from getting shot with a rubber bullet (or maybe it was a tear gas canister).

    The Beilan Island Incident was a catastrophic containment failure that occurred in 2030, in Beilan Island, off the coast of Shanghai. The incident began when a group of seven middle-school students trespassed the quarantined perimeter of the Beilan Island Precursor Ruins and were subsequently attacked by mutated sufferers of Eurosky Low-Emission Infectious Disease (ELID), thought to be caused by exposure to collapse fluid. The Shanghai government sent in a strike team to rescue the teens, but due to the island's remote location and the number of infected, the team was unable to maintain the perimeter and as a last resort used explosives on the sealed main entrance in an attempt to permanently block off the ruins. The explosion ruptured the precursor ruins and culminated in the release of concentrated collapse fluid into Earth's atmosphere, which would then spread across the world via trade winds and render the majority of the land around the equator uninhabitable.
    Due to the widespread biochemical fallout of this event, it is regarded as one of the most disastrous calamities to befall the human race, with the death toll of the event a direct cause for the development of dolls and frame robot technology. To date no attempt has been made the re-seal the Beilan Island Ruins and it can be assumed that most of the collapse fluid contained within the facility has already leaked into the atmosphere.
