1. ...and Then The Bombs Came
Barreling nearly straight down from the sky
The first planes of the mass onslaught were the fighters and dive-bombers
And then a new sound gradually droned into our ears
A sound deep - all encompassing, with no notes in it
Just a gigantic faraway surge of doom-like sound
It was the heavies, coming on with a terrible slowness in flights of twelve
Three flights to a group - in groups stretched out across the sky
I thought it would never end
...And then the bombs came
2. Flaktürme
Junge männer! Hear the
Call to arms
We must stall
The allied advance
Stop their terror
The bomber command
We're in ruins by their hand
Here we stand
The last line of defence
This is where it ends
The reign of terror - Uagh
Flaktürme
114s, scour the sky
If it moves - pacify!
Death, heavily fortified
Armed to the teeth
Concrete, dug in deep
Flaktürme
Flaktürme
Feuer frei
Feuer frei
Paint the skies
With their blood
Our masterpiece
Feed the heavens
With their souls
Have no heart
Blow them apart
Feuer
Feuer frei
Feuer
Feuer frei
The war is lost
They've breached all fronts
Passed our borders
Crossed our rivers
Burnt our homes
Yet we stand,
To the bitter end
Here we stand
The last line of defence
This is where we end
Where we fall
Perished in the flames
Just faces with no names
We lay down our lives
A final sacrifice
Here we stand
The final sacrifice
Just faces with no names
Perished in the flames
3. Finest Hour
1,5 tonnes, massive warhead
Manned by heroes, eager to die
Devastating submerged deathbed
In the hands of the Shimbo-tai
Spiritual successors
Deadly aggressors
Ancestors guide(s) us on this day
Sealed is my fate
Sealed is my hate
Bushido code leads our way
Whatever it may take
The fate of our nation
Is at stake
In this our finest hour
Let us be remembered
I serve with burning conviction
In the name of the emperor
We commit --- voluntarily
As - fortune favours the brave
A greater purpose
Trapped in flesh
Now to transcend
I welcome the end
Whatever it may take
The fate of our nation
Is at stake
In this our finest hour
Let us be remembered
Approaching target
Lest you forget
We paid our debt
Honor in death
In noble defense
As I return -
Return to heaven
Whatever it may take
The fate of our nation
Is at stake
In this our finest hour
Let us be remembered
Remember me
4. Like So Many Before Them
Saddled with disgraced command
Shallow slit trenches, blasted by sand
Inexperienced troops were spread thin
Dispersed, by harsh terrain
The scorching sun blaze, on withered men
Exhausted and mauled, slaughtered one to ten
Exasperated and exposed, on topographic crests
Their ghastly silhouettes were marked for death
It was murder!
Into the muzzles of concealed eighty-eights they rolled
It was murder!
Tank after tank, blown to bits, lured into the fold
Air superiority was forfeited
The gruesome shelling intensified
Howling Stukas piling up the dead
Their lifeless eyes looks to the sky
Another nail in the coffin hammered down
Bearing the mark of the Afrika Korps
Cold winds of death, sweeps the battered ground
Grinded into dust, lies the allied force
Before them, the victorious amass
Silence falls upon the Kasserine Pass
It was murder!
Into the muzzles of concealed eighty-eights they rolled
It was murder!
Tank after tank, blown to bits, lured into the fold
Just like so many before them
Returned to earth condemned, condemned
Just like so many before them
Returned to earth condemned
Just like so many before them
Returned to earth condemned
Condemned
5. Decrowned
Bolt upright
Staring down the sights
Still holding firing position
Behind the breech of the MG 92
Squad arranged
By the book
But taken out
Decrowned
Decrowned
Decrowned
Still in death
Throughout eternity
About to fire
Longing to kill
Kill
Top of skull
Blasted off
Brains exposed
Scalped by heavy fire
Decomposed
He met the bitter end
Steadfast in defence
Frozen in time
Redesigned
As brass slugs corrode
His body rots away
No more to be done
For his emperor
A setting sun
His head
Decrowned
His head
Decrowned
6. Obscure the Sun
Arrows of fire, infernal machines
Coming disaster, harrowing screams
Rockets propelled, engulfing the skies
Where no sun, will ever rise
Mounted artillery, quick to deploy
No man's land, domain is destroyed
Burn the earth, lay them to waste
Halt the terror regime
Fire shall reign
Upon the throne of war
Shrieks of death
Paralyzing fear
Secret development - special ops
Experimental - battery set loose
Extinguished battalion of tanks
Massive losses of armor and troops
Fire shall reign
Upon the throne of war
Shrieks of death
Paralyzing fear
Fire shall rain
Upon our homeland's soil
Flames of hell
Agonizing terror
Katyusha
Parallel rails, on folding frames
Set launch position, 4 tonnes of flames
Full saturation, effective shock made
Vastly deployed, counter denied
Counter denied
They will fall
Obscure the sun for good
There is no God here for you
As darkened skies sets in
They will fall
Obscure the sun for good
There is no God here for you
The end is nigh
And now
The fire shall reign
Upon the throne of war
Shrieks of death
Paralyzing fear
Fire shall rain
Upon our homeland's soil
Flames of hell
Agonizing - terror
Scorch them to break
Their will to fight
Bring the end
Bring the
Katyusha
7. Titan Grip
RHSA, law enforcement
Establishing total control
Hordes of informants
Watchful eyes patrol
A titan grip
Retains the monolith
Autocracy, refined and vile
Tyrannical oppressors
Swings of the hammer
Quells the defiant
Incarcerating the resistance
Eliminate the opposition
The hangmans' noose has tightened
The iron heart beats no more
Even in death it has hardened
No grave can restrain the beast
Hunt forevermore
Sheer affliction
Unlimited jurisdiction
Evil by nature
Sovereign authority
Deadly legislature
Enslaves society
Silence will fall
Complete stranglehold
Terminal retaliation
They're all traitors
Kill them all, crowd the gallows
Disregard all life
Slay the men, abduct their women
Purify the exemplary
Execute the rest
Exterminated bloodlines
Repressed, oppressed
The hangmans' noose has tightened
The iron heart beats no more
Even in death it has hardened
No grave can restrain the beast
Hunt forevermore
The hangmans' noose has tightened
The iron heart beats no more
Even in death it has hardened
No grave can restrain the beast
Hunt forevermore
The hangmans' noose has tightened
The iron heart beats no more
8. March of the Elephant
65 tonnes, pure death and destruction
Industrial prowess, redefine annihilation
Mammoth sized, crawling fortress of war
Spearhead of the 654
Behold, the Elephant
Stampede into the breach
By heaven sent
Take heed, let the cannon preach
Once in its sights
You're sentenced to die
A 16 pound shell
Sends you straight to hell
Once in its sights
sentenced to die
16 pound shells
Straight to hell
Mounted KwK 43 - colossal pinnacle,
200 millimeter armour - colossal pinnacle,
of the Wunderwaffe craft
Breaking the east, axis glory reborn
Engineering the Soviet epitaph
Behold, the Elephant
Storming the breach
By heaven sent
Let the cannon preach
Once in its sights
You're sentenced to die
As the 16 pound shell
Sends you straight to hell
Commanded to seal off the salient
Envelop the reds, in a cloud of dust
Sheer firepower, pure devastation
Massive frontline stronghold
Drenched in guts
Mounted KwK 43, death's architect
Split torsos and splattered heads
No amount of armour can protect
The already dead
Already dead
Behold, the Elephant
Storming the breach
By heaven sent
Let the cannon preach
Once in its sights
You're sentenced to die
As the 16 pound shell
Sends you straight to hell
March of the Elephant
Thunderous advance
With deadly intent
Sweep the motherland
Behold, the Elephant
The lance of empires
Vanguard regiment
Death toll amplifier
9. Wandering Soul
A message meant to sow despair
Defect to escape this senselessness
Hear the sound of their sorrow
The wailing of the dead
Unearthly wail, fills the forest
Funeral songs, eerie voices
Dreadful cries, raise ground fire
The burden of its beauty, too extreme
The alien noise, clashing cymbals
Evocating superstition
Wandering in the thousands
Bearing their eternal hatred
Your loved ones await, a hope for life
In the south, is only hell
Aimless wanderer, lost and suffering
Buried far from home
The alien noise, clashing cymbals
Evocating superstition
Wandering in the thousands
Bearing eternal hatred
No sticks burned
No comfort given
For wandering soul
No end in sight
These endless nights
No rest for wandering soul
Your loved ones await, a hope for life
In the south, is only hell
Aimless wanderer, lost and suffering
Buried far from home
By strangers buried, in shallow graves
No rites no nothing, disgraced and ravaged
No stones risen, no incense wreaths
There'll be no peace, for the deceased
No rest for wandering soul
No rest for wandering soul
