for years we hide in blackness,
we have to sink into oblivion,
this agony of fear absorbs my thinking,
this anguish suffocates my souls,
suffocates my soul...

i saw countless acts of treason,
once this heart was filled with force and comfort,
but now there is nothing anymore,
the home i knew has crumbled into dust,
i know so many of these ruins...

i watch it burn,
i watch it bled, my fatherland,
to blood-red skies i pray,
impatiently i wait, i'm waiting for the end,
as i hail the,
as i hail the bombs,
the bombs of my saviours...

as i'm craving for these sirens wailing,
to leave this cell to cross the night,
as they crawl into, into their bunkers,
as they hide away and shake with fear...

i watch it burn,
i watch it bled, my fatherland,
to blood-red skies i pray,
impatiently i wait, i'm waiting for the end,
as i hail the,
as i hail the bombs,
the bombs of my saviours...

i dare to raise my eyes and whisper,
i fill my lungs with life again,
walking empty streets and orphaned quarters,
a shine like daylight in the light...

i watch it burn,
i watch it bled, my fatherland,
to blood-red skies i pray,
impatiently i wait, i'm waiting for the end,
as i hail the,
as i hail the bombs,
the bombs of my saviours...
