Fatherland Lyrics


Awake from your sleep

It's been a long slumber

It's been over 50 years

of the spell you've been under

Awake o' Fatherland

Destruction and prosperity--

you've seen it all

Built the greatest empire,

then seen it fall

You stood alone against

jealousy and hate

The world couldn't stand

to see you so great

[repeat chorus]

You were ravaged and torn,

your will defiled

Villanized by the world

in a series of trials

Now broken, they tried

to drown you in guilt

You picked up the pieces

and now you've rebuilt

[repeat chorus]

Your citizens divided

and families kept apart

Divided by a wall

built right through your heart

Prisoners of twin evils,

their fates were decided

But then the wall fell

and the people were reunited

[repeat chorus]

[repeat chorus]

Awake from your sleep

It's been a long slumber

It's been over 50 years

of the spell you've been under

I look to the future,

it's in your hands

It's time to awake, my fatherland

[repeat chorus]

Awake, my fatherland
