Holocaust Songtext

Squirting mud and exploding tanks Corpses strewn over a loamy field Screaming wounded - Streams of blood Guts, eyes, teeth trampled into the dust Dirty holes full of greedy rats Trenches filled with water and ammunition Woodcrosses with illegible names Bare-dead trees, waiting ravens Ripped - Torn Mutilated bodies Mud - Shit Cover the battlefield Steel helmets In the barbed wire Fog - Rain Endless nightmare Minutes like hours - Awaiting the end Deadly silence - Silence before storm Covered soldiers - Bearing the mark of death Like a tornado the fight breaks loose Hundreds of warriorrs in a big assault Man against man, mercyless slaughter Who survives wishes he was dead Bloody bajonetts on broken rifles Enerved doctors operating without a rest Overcrowded hospitals - thousands of criples Innocent women and children dying for nothing Years are gone since the last battle Veterans - Old, sitting in wheelchairs Eyes that say so many words But the lips are closed Still the landscape is marked by the war Old cannons - Big holes in the ground Burned-out bunkers rotting trees A flower growing through a rusty helmet Millions of crosses Over the whole world Countless witnesses To a senseless war Silent crying To the government Just a word: "WHY?"
