A thousand heads cut clean across their necks

Right down the hall from me

The Reich′s relentless blade, thirsty and shining redStill echoes of their screams

This is a tarnished heirloom, passed down through iron fists

A shameful house of doom

A legacy of collapse, built on a painful truth

A thousand years of failure

A thousand years they bled

To the bear, the blitzkrieg and the holy father

They just bowed their heads

They meekly did their time

Counting the days while harnessed to their rusty shackles

Forever occupied, folded the crimson star

The rabbits turned to jackals

Still echoes of their screams

(Still echoes of their screams)

This is a tarnished heirloom, passed down through iron fists

A shameful house of doom

A legacy of collapse, built on a painful truth

A thousand years of failure

A thousand years they bled

To the bear, the blitzkrieg and the holy father

They just bowed their heads

Soviet hangover, eastern bloc

And dirty money still flows through locks

A killing ground of rebels, black marketers

Restrained but there's no resistance here

Southeast Asia in a Euro cellblock

Saigon′s children conceal what they've got

The opium trail runs west through here

They're selling disease to erase all your fears

(Fears, fears, fears, fears, fears, fears)

Still echoes of their screams

Still echoes of their screams

A thousand years of failure

A thousand years they bled

To the bear, the blitzkrieg and the holy father

They just bowed their heads

Still echoes of their screams

I won′t bow my head

Still echoes of their screams

I won′t bow my head
