Lyrics
My friend it’s getting darker and late the hour is
Join me and sail an ocean of blood red memories
The sun is slowly dying and soon will fall the night
So listen to my words of times when god forgot his child
I only was a young boy and ne’er would be a man
When forces of the dark would claim my soul
They took my mother, father, left me in this hell
Until death finally of my hand took hold
The house that I was born in and where my cradle stood
Has fallen prey to a tyrant’s hands that stole all that they could
The light of god it has become a golden eagle’s eyes
Foretelling a prophecy of a storm that soon will rise
I now have found a new home, its walls are made of death
And pain is what we call our daily bread
Our hands are bleeding for their gods, for honour, race and land
While our human souls are left for dead
Amidst these moors of misery the days passed one by one
Our backs would break from drudgery beneath the burning sun
The old ones died, the young grew old, the reaper at our side
He marched along through killing fields but could not break our pride
And when the tyrant’s day had come we saw our destiny
What had been our hell on earth no other man should see
All traces disappearing when the end of war was waged
And in our home of pain the storms of death forever raged
Our prayers we prayed, our songs we sang but there was no way out
The chamber’s where we breathed our last
Forced in like animals, stripped of our human souls
First came the pain, then came the gas
Holocaust, millions dead, genocide, where is god
Eyes can’t see, words can’t say, armageddon, blackest day
The century has passed by and long gone are our days
The misery will never leave, the memory still stays
Our ashes scattered by the winds, our graves covered with dust
Yet in your history our souls will never rust
Our darkness shines within your souls, our light drowns out the night
The loudest silence deafens every ear
Until the spark of malice lives no more in each man’s heart
The fires of remembrance will be here
Join me and sail an ocean of blood red memories
The sun is slowly dying and soon will fall the night
So listen to my words of times when god forgot his child
I only was a young boy and ne’er would be a man
When forces of the dark would claim my soul
They took my mother, father, left me in this hell
Until death finally of my hand took hold
The house that I was born in and where my cradle stood
Has fallen prey to a tyrant’s hands that stole all that they could
The light of god it has become a golden eagle’s eyes
Foretelling a prophecy of a storm that soon will rise
I now have found a new home, its walls are made of death
And pain is what we call our daily bread
Our hands are bleeding for their gods, for honour, race and land
While our human souls are left for dead
Amidst these moors of misery the days passed one by one
Our backs would break from drudgery beneath the burning sun
The old ones died, the young grew old, the reaper at our side
He marched along through killing fields but could not break our pride
And when the tyrant’s day had come we saw our destiny
What had been our hell on earth no other man should see
All traces disappearing when the end of war was waged
And in our home of pain the storms of death forever raged
Our prayers we prayed, our songs we sang but there was no way out
The chamber’s where we breathed our last
Forced in like animals, stripped of our human souls
First came the pain, then came the gas

Eyes can’t see, words can’t say, armageddon, blackest day
The century has passed by and long gone are our days
The misery will never leave, the memory still stays
Our ashes scattered by the winds, our graves covered with dust
Yet in your history our souls will never rust
Our darkness shines within your souls, our light drowns out the night
The loudest silence deafens every ear
Until the spark of malice lives no more in each man’s heart
The fires of remembrance will be here
