Stalingrad

The memories remain from when I was alive All I used to be is buried in the snow I lie there all alone faraway from home I Fought until the end, with nothing to defend We were told that we were heroes Not to be defeated And found it out the hard way, they all lied I can see the few remaining dying all around me None of them will go to heaven Let me take you back to where it began Remind you of the pain gathered here today I was young, the road before me Wide and never-ending Heading for a life of you and me The days of joy, the tears of laughter Echoes here forever The time had come to prove I was a man One of a million marching into a certain grave I made the war my enemy, no glory to the brave If only I could find, a way to ease my mind Leave all this pain behind Why I am here. Tell me why This world I knew was out of reach Reality was under siege The innocent was torn apart In this hell out there we were dying one by one Faraway from the battlefield By the choices made our fate was sealed The visions of a mind insane Is to blame for this massacre in vein Never to retreat Never say surrender The winter and the cold The invincible defender They had the nation and Mother Nature on their side: I was told I'd be a hero I would be rewarded But I don't see the stone upon my grave Now I am just a lonely spirit Trapped inside a nightmare The souls of all I killed won't let me go
