Dark At Dawn

Glorious Duty
Oppressive heat is lying over wasted fields No breath of wind is in the air Songs of cicadas supersede the battle cries Curing the sorrow and despair Merciless sun is burning from the clear blue sky The smell of oil and tarnished metal A fag and spirits telling memories of home Lulling the fear of the next battle Chorus: Field-gray Nazi booty Goners for the glorious duty Hopes and dreams defending narcissitic zeal Tin hat parade gleaming Still to hear the fallen screaming Blood will rust resplendent decoration steel Bloodcurdling sounds of war - reality returns Behind the lines the Flaks are roaring Smoke columns fed with ended lives and shattered dreams With us the hopes of victory are soaring (into the sky) Chorus Aus Songtexte Mania
