In Memory of the Fallen Lyrics


Decades have passed since mankind fell to war

World war

Commemorate sacrifices in blood

Liberation, ultimate toll

The spirit of men; destitute, defeated

Endurance withers throughout their ranks

As we bow

In memory of the fallen

Despair entwined

In memory of the fallen

Devastation on a global scale

The circle of death descending

Soldiers, civilians moribund

Humanity fragmented, eroded

As we bow

In memory of the fallen

Lament their fate

In memory of the fallen

Gallant forces trapped, depleted

Days of artillery salvo without end

Countless millions butchered and slaughtered

No emancipation for the brave few

As aggressors pick off survivors with any means necessary

The congregation of dead spiral, bodies organised and aligned

Entire armies now effaced, no military nor civilians remain

The desolation of Europe seems ever certain
