• Before the Skies are Painted Black

Standing tight with our chins up high
A crowded drill-yard under the pale winter sky
A gleam of resignation sets in the young eyes
When they meet gaze of the one to lead us into demise

Devoted sons of system with no regard for our fate
We’ll all be honored to join this savage crusade
Forcing our bayonets deep into the flesh of the foe
Running through hail of bullets and watch our mates fall

But for tonight you summoned us to guard your grand feast
For all those in command and her whose charm I never could resist
But does she care for such an expendable pawn
I’m left to deal with these feelings on my own

So let’s the show begin!

Surrounded by the alleys bleached with snow
The house of officers is ready to take another ball

The fearless sentinels – we cling to our weapons out in the chill

All dispersed to their positions – the honor guard
Amidst the frozen scenery – the party’s soon to start
Securing the arrival of high-ranking guests
With priceless decorations embedded in their chests

And finally I see
The fragile image of the lovely one
Who dwells inside my dreams

I watch you through the window dancing into the night
The number of the stars you have displaying your might
All clad in gala tunics with white shirts and silver studs
The air is filled with grandeur of severe wargods

The time stands still as you go round the hall
You seem to have forgotten about the casualties you bore
Tonight you savor the neverfading beauty of life
Before you spill the blood again in the forthcoming strife

If she could only be mine for the one single dance
But fate is too stingy to grant me such a chance
Even in the wake of our ravenous attack
Before we paint them skies in black

If I should die – I hope it won’t happen in vain
But what I do regret – I’ll never see her smiling in my face again
