Tannenberg

(album: War Of Ages - 2013)

Mid of July, the summer breeze
Carries scents of blood along
Those times we fear to lose a dream, to lose a nation

Our strategy, a master plan
Slowly writing history
A genius trap coming their way
Fate will not let us down today

I don't defeat an enemy
I defend what I believe is right
My role in the war is to bring to my country a glory to taste

Tannenberg, where they lost the game
Surrounding their men we let them no chance
Tannenberg, luck was on our side
That they never changed their mind
Tannenberg, when I chose that name
I remember the knights who fell in the past
Shall this victory lighten their memory
Everywhere, all the same

Together as one, in the fronting line
Men are ready for the fight
I know they fear to lose their dreams, to lose their reason

Falling around one by one
Victims of fate will soon abound
But rules are clear as they see
They can only survive by killing

They don't defeat an enemy
They obey orders we have given
Your soldiers of fortune know
We owe you the glory we taste

Tannenberg, where they lost the game
Surrounding their men we let them no chance
Tannenberg, luck was on our side
That they never changed their mind
Tannenberg, when I chose that name
I remember the knights who fell in the past
Shall this victory lighten their memory
Everywhere, all the same

Here I stand (here I stand)
Watching the line (watching the line)
There they stand, together
Fall with pride (fall with pride)
On both sides (on both sides)
Men are a band of brothers

But counting the dead is somehow
Changing the glory to waste

Tannenberg, if I had done wrong
I wouldn't live to long... a regret so strong
Tannenberg, luck was on our side
That they never changed their mind
Tannenberg, when I chose that name
I remember the knights who fell in the past
Shall this victory lighten their memory
Everywhere, all the same
