Wehrmacht

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 larger 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 Form the Wehrmacht's spine Lethal grand design What about the men executing orders? Panzers on a line Form 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 Form the Wehrmacht's spine Lethal grand design What about the men executing orders? Panzers on a line Form the Wehrmacht's spine Lethal grand design What about the men?
