Seven-zeroes sky, cold and vast
Across the iron curtain, shadows cast
A silver bird on currents high
Carrying souls beneath a watchful eye
Destination marked, a route defined
Leaving the free world far behind
Innocence aloft, a mundane flight
Heading unaware into the endless night
Engines hum a steady drone
Over lands forbidden, seeds are sown
Of paranoia, fear, and hate
Too close to borders, sealed by fate!
On radar screens, a blip appears
Confirming all the darkest fears!
(Chorus - Powerful, anthemic vocals over heavy chords and driving rhythm)
FIRE IN THE FROZEN SKY!
Red Star fighters closing nigh!
CIVILIAN WINGS TORN DOWN IN HATE!
A metal whale meets burning fate!
No warning given, orders screamed!
A fireball where cabin lights once gleamed!
SHOT DOWN! Over unforgiving land!
By the Cold War's iron hand!
Delta wings ascend with deadly grace
Predators hunting in this hostile space
Pilot's eyes behind a visor's sheen
Target acquired, cold and mean
Orders crackle, sharp and low
"Unidentified hostile, let the cannons flow!"
Was it error? Was it planned?
A question lost in no-man's-land!
The interceptors scream and dive
No chance for passengers left alive
A flicker bright, a missile's streak
Against the chrome, defenses weak!
A moment frozen, time stands still
FIRE IN THE FROZEN SKY!
Red Star fighters closing nigh!
CIVILIAN WINGS TORN DOWN IN HATE!
A metal whale meets burning fate!
No warning given, orders screamed!
A fireball where cabin lights once gleamed!
SHOT DOWN! Over unforgiving land!
By the Cold War's iron hand!
Cabin ruptures! Pressure steals the breath!
A terrifying plunge towards icy death!
Shrapnel tears through seats and bone!
Final prayers, a helpless groan!
Falling debris, a burning pyre!
Fueled by suspicion's deadly fire!
The world below looks up in dread
Another pawn game leaves hundreds dead!
FIRE IN THE FROZEN SKY!
Red Star fighters closing nigh!
CIVILIAN WINGS TORN DOWN IN HATE!
A metal whale meets
Oh, oh, god no fire in the sky.
Needless suffering, there lives have been denied.
