Rushing along the smooth road after the great purge Sentenced civilian saboteurs The idealism of the men fades away now Brought to a halt by endlessness
Leading us all into the noble disaster Rejoin the battle; no respite Outmanned and out-gunned, pile of staggering victims We're playing a part in widespread lies... please lead me
Come and save me from agony Bear a wreath to my cenotaph And before long you will see That history will ambush us
All the years we spent in vain All the years we spent in pain True believers, follow me Come (and) taste my stainless steel
We're taking part in executions of millions Caught up in circumstances' maze Mass deportation, squads of terror on duty In order to reach the goal of victory
Adapt to a lifestyle; hardship, horror and hatred Personal instrument of death Doctrines of conquest from belligerent powers Ultimate cataclysmic showdown... please lead me
Come and save me from agony Bear a wreath to my cenotaph And before long you will see That history will ambush us
All the years we spent in vain All the years we spent in pain True believers, follow me Come (and) taste my stainless steel
The stalemate goes on with bodies stuck in the streets But this unspeakable moment will not last Burst over borders, stop the three-pronged offensive No one will find salvation; tension's high
The premise for war will make the first move to strike No longer bound by oath, lightning campaign Yet neither side dares make the first move to strike After collecting the dead, a shot rings out
Lead: L. Ström
Come and save me from agony Bear a wreath to my cenotaph And before long you will see That history will ambush us
All the years we spent in vain All the years we spent in pain True believers, follow me Come (and) taste my stainless steel
