"Still Echoes" lyrics

"Still Echoes"

A thousand heads cut clean across their necks
Right down the hall from me
The Reich's relentless blade, thirsty and shining red
Still echoes of their screams

This is a tarnished heirloom
Passed down through iron fists
A shameful house of doom, a legacy of collapse
Built on a painful truth

A thousand years of failure
A thousand years they bled
To the bear, the blitzkrieg
And the holy father, they just bowed their heads

They meekly did their time, counting the days
While harnessed to their rusty shackles
Forever occupied, folded the crimson star
The rabbits turned to jackals
Still echoes of their screams
Still echoes of their screams!

This is a tarnished heirloom
Passed down through iron fists
A shameful house of doom, a legacy of collapse
Built on a painful truth

A thousand years of failure
A thousand years they bled
To the bear, the blitzkrieg
And the holy father, they just bowed their heads

Soviet hangover, Eastern Bloc
And dirty money still flows through locks
A killing ground of rebels, black marketeers
Restrained, but there's no resistance here
Southeast Asia in a Euro cell block
Saigon's children conceal what they've got
The opium trail runs west through here
They're selling disease to erase all your fears (Fears, fears, fears)
Still echoes of their screams
Still echoes of their screams!

A thousand years of failure
A thousand years they bled
To the bear, the blitzkrieg
And the holy father, they just bowed their heads

Still echoes of their screams
I won't bow my head
Still echoes of their screams
I won't bow my head!
