And the shadow sang
In the form of silver lining
The thundering roar was blinding
Imitating the sound of oceans at their wake
Frail statues broken in pieces
Tell the tale of this shameful surrender
In the following silence
Fear formed from the air that we breathed
Saw soldiers waving goodbyes with tears in their eyes
No hope, only certain demise
Approaching end made children see nightmares awake
On bended knee
We accept our new fate to be
Slaving for the master race
Like a portrait depicting new history
The sun coming down from a crimson red sky
Saw soldiers waving goodbyes with tears in their eyes
No hope, only certain demise
Approaching end made children see nightmares awake
So cold in the trenches they lie
Cold and still, utter silence
Save for the shadow who sang
