|
Unknown soldier, I stand here at your grave |
|
And thoughts are running through my brain |
|
Perhaps, when the war begun you were as old as I am |
|
And it took your dreams, took your dreams |
|
Unknown soldier I stand here at your grave |
|
Only born and brought up for the war |
|
Only killing around to live obediently until death |
|
For your native land |
|
[Chorus:] |
|
Puppet of the mighty |
|
You have seen how they died, belonged to their cries |
|
Not those who wanted the war and fought the battle at home |
|
Puppet of the mighty |
|
The poison of fear has poisoned you |
|
With us the threads of the puppet are destroyed anyhow |
|
Unknown soldier every year in front of your grave |
|
They stand and hold speeches and were never there |
|
The war has hardly passed, new weapons for the country |
|
And your death was for nothing, was really for nothing |
|
[Chorus] |
|
Puppet of the mighty you have seen how they died |
|
Puppet of the mighty belonged to their cries |
|
Day by day only the fear it had poisoned you. |
|
Live for death and die for nothing |
|
Everything senseless all for the mighty |
|
They think they are God |
|
But God doesn't want this insanity |
|
You could say that I'm ill |
|
But one day they'll get their bill |
|
[Chorus] |
|
Puppet of the mighty you have seen how they died |
|
Puppet of the mighty belonged to their cries |
|
Day by day only the fear it had poisoned you |
