He sat in a room
|
In a square of the color of blood.
|
He'd rule the whole world
|
If there was a way that he could.
|
He'd sit and he'd stare
|
At the minerets on top of the towers.
|
For he was a beast
|
As he hatched his new plans to gain power.
|
|
(Chorus)
|
And the snow fell
|
Covering the dreams and ideals.
|
And the snow fell
|
Freezing the blood and the wheels.
|
And the snow fell
|
They had to keep up for survival.
|
And the snow fell
|
And defeated the beast's only rival.
|
They took the old roads
|
That Napoleon had taken before.
|
They fought as a force as a light
|
Against the darkness in a holy war.
|
One day they were looking around
|
And the sun was shining on the cone flowers.
|
The next day they were freezing to death
|
In the snow and the ice cold showers.
|
|
(Chorus)
|
|
Then came the deadly roads
|
Back from the steps of their retreat.
|
The cold racked their bodies
|
But worse was the pain of defeat.
|
And people who had hailed them once
|
Now turned and looked away.
|
These people now knew
|
That the beast was on it's way.
|
|
(Chorus)
|
|
You finally came back
|
To the borders of your fatherland.
|
Now enemies came
|
Traitors everywhere at hand.
|
Many people had fought and died
|
Knowing that they had to win.
|
And still it sickens my heart
|
To see the picture of the red flag in Berlin.
|
|
(Chorus)
|
