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 madmen on a leash
Or young 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?
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

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 madmen on a leash
Or young 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?
Panzers on a line from the Wehrmacht's spine
Lethal grand design
What about the men?
