Panzer wheels roll forward
Grinding steel screaming horses
The reek of death the scent of war
Marching to the front once more
Labyrinth of trenches
Endless maze of corpses
Blistered bodies fill the scene
This horror has never been seen
Death flies on poisonous mist
Death flies on wings of war
Death flies forevermore
The reaping scythe of death
The reaping scythe of death
Blade of poison
Pierce the skin
Cold steel rapture
Flares fired into the night
The silhouette of soldiers
Cannons blitz from miles away
The victims scream in dismay
Muffled voices from all around
The dreaded cry: gas gas gas!
Smoke fills every trench
Beyond their masks the fatal stench
The reaping scythe of death
The reaping scythe of death
Death flies on hell-screaming mortars
Death flies on wings of war
Death flies forevermore
Rising dawn the poison has cleared
Night of the shelling erased
Tormented screams recall the misery
Disfigured bodies left in agony
Desolate landscape
Tomb of millions
Thunder from the bombings
A fading wail of dying forces
Grinding battles
Cauldron of attrition
Grinding battles
Cauldron of attrition
