Pulled into war to serve a vision

That's supposed to last a thousand years

Part of a machine unstoppable

As merciless as tidal waves



Were they the victims of the time

Or proud parts of lager goals?

Propaganda of the Reich masterful machine



Time and again the battle rages on

Beyond the gates of misery

As casualties rise and millions die around them

Did they see it all?



Crazy mademen on a leash

Or you men who lost their way?

Grand illusions of the Reich

May seem real at times



Panzers on a line

From the Wehrmacht's spine

Lethal grand design

What about the men executing orders?



Ad victoriam

Ex machina

Non sibi sed patriae



Pulled into war to serve a vision

That just didn't last a thousand years

Part of a machine

Though stoppable as merciless as tidal waves



Crazy mademen on a leash

Or you men who lost their way?

Grand illusions of the Reich

May seem real at times



Panzers on a line

From the Wehrmacht's spine

Lethal grand design

What about the men executing orders?
