(Opens with machine gun fire and war atmosphere, screaming, crying)
(Verse I)
Bodies fill the streets tonight, fire lights the sky
Young men march through ruined lines, ordered there to die
Running through the shattered blocks, smoke above us all
Victims of the grand design
Still we heed the call
(Pre-Chorus)
Sirens cry through avenues
Gunships shake the night
Every district burns the same
Under satellite light
(Chorus)
Back to the front!
Hold the line and never break, never break!
Back to the front!
Fight and die for their mistakes, their mistakes!
Back to the front!
No surrender!
No salvation!
No way home!
(Verse II)
Autocannons crack at dawn, echoes through the rain
Convoys push through shattered roads, nothing now remains
Federal banners soaked in ash, hanging over walls
Every side cries “Victory”
While another city falls
(Pre-Chorus)
Drones above the boulevard
Scan the streets below
Another squad sent forward
To a fight nobody knows
(Chorus)
Back to the front!
Hold the line and never break, never break!
Back to the front!
Fight and die for their mistakes, their mistakes!
Back to the front!
No surrender!
No salvation!
No way home!
(Bridge)
Why are we dying?
Whose war is this?
Lies from the briefing
Turned into this
Hell over Paleto
Smoke over the coast
Young men disappear now
Like they mattered most
Why are we dying?
Still no one knows
Marching through the fire
Where the black flag blows
(Verse III)
Twenty one, another son, buried with his gun
Letters folded in his vest, unread by anyone
Looking back through thermal sights, nothing now feels real
Only orders, only smoke
Only broken steel
(Pre-Chorus)
Machine fire through the darkness
Ships out in the bay
Every soldier understands
They're all thrown away
(Final Chorus)
Back to the front!
Hold the line and never break, never break!
Back to the front!
Fight and die for their mistakes, their mistakes!
Back to the front!
No surrender!
No salvation!
No way home!
Back to the front!
Back to the front!
Back to the front!
Back to the front!
Stahlkrieg
