Lyrics to Weapons Of The Modern Age [EP 2022] by Sabaton

Tracklist: 01. Father A long ago in eastern Prussia Young men with great ambitions rise So who can tell me who can say for sure Which one will win the Nobel Prize? It was a golden age for science The kaiserreich would hold the key And as the conflict came and tension rose The manifest of the 93 Haber-Bosch, the great alliance Where's the contradiction? Fed the world by ways of science Sinner or a saint? Father of toxic gas, and chemical warfare His dark creation has been revealed Flow over no man's land, a poisonous nightmare A deadly mist on the battlefield "Perversion of ideals of science" Lost words of alienated wife And in the trenches of the western front Unknowing soldiers pay the price And on the battlefield they're dying And on the fields the crops are grown So who can tell us what is right or wrong Maths or morality alone? Haber-Bosch, the great alliance Where's the contradiction? Fed the world by ways of science Sinner or a saint? Father of toxic gas, and chemical warfare His dark creation has been revealed Flow over no man's land, a poisonous nightmare A deadly mist on the battlefield Father of toxic gas, and chemical warfare His dark creation has been revealed Flow over no man's land, a poisonous nightmare A deadly mist on the battlefield During times when there's peace he belonged to the world During times when there's war he belonged to his place of birth Where, will this lead? What's coming next from your inventions? We wonder where, where does it end? Who can foresee, see what will be? Haber-Bosch, the great alliance Where's the contradiction? Fed the world by ways of science Sinner or a saint? Father of toxic gas, and chemical warfare His dark creation has been revealed Flow over no man's land, a poisonous nightmare A deadly mist on the battlefield Father of toxic gas, and chemical warfare His dark creation has been revealed Flow over no man's land, a poisonous nightmare A deadly mist on the battlefield 02. The Red Baron Man and machine and nothing there in between A flying circus and a man from Prussia The sky and a plane, this man commands his domain The western front and all the way to Russia Death from above, you're under fire Stained red as blood, he’s roaming higher Born a soldier from the horseback to the skies That's where the legend will arise And he's flying Higher, the king of the sky He’s flying too fast and he's flying to high Higher, an eye for an eye The legend will never die First to the scene he is a lethal machine It's bloody April and the tide is turning Fire at will it is the thrill of the kill Four in a day shot down with engines burning Embrace the fame, red squadron leader Call out his name, Rote Kampffieger In the game to win, a gambler rolls the dice Eighty allies paid the price And he's flying Higher, the king of the sky He's flying too fast and he's flying to high Higher, an eye for an eye The legend will never die Higher Higher, the king of the sky He's flying too fast and he's flying to high Higher, an eye for an eye The legend will never die Higher Born a soldier from the horseback to the skies And the legend never dies And he’s flying And he’s flying And he's flying Higher Higher, the king of the sky He’s flying too fast and he's flying too high Higher, an eye for an eye The legend will never die Higher Higher, the king of the sky He's flying too fast and he's flying too high Higher, an eye for an eye The legend will never die 03. Dreadnought A shadow moves across the water in pursuit It splits the waves, commands the sea and defies the wind Instilling fear among its prey, feels nought for itself Ahead the sea lies calm awaiting the storm Displace the water in its path Reveal the cannons, align the guns, unleash their wrath Unopposed under crimson skies Immortalized, over time their legend will rise And their foes can't believe their eyes, believe their size, as they fall And the dreadnoughts dread nothing at all A hull of steel and all big guns to serve the fleet Unrivalled firepower riding the waves to war A devastating blow will send their foes down below Fearless armada now bombarding their shore Light up the night when cannons roar In fear of nothing, they lead the navy into war Unopposed under crimson skies Immortalized, over time their legend will rise And their foes can't believe their eyes, believe their size, as they fall And the dreadnoughts dread nothing at all The North Sea has drawn them near The Fleet of the High Seas approach A contest of titans commence These days will dictate their fate The grand fleet prepares their guns Unleashed as the dreadnoughts clash at last Unopposed under crimson skies Immortalized, over time their legend will rise And their foes can't believe their eyes, believe their size, as they fall And the dreadnoughts dread nothing at all 04. The Attack Of The Dead Men Turmoil at the front Wilhelms forces on the hunt There's a thunder in the east It's an attack of the deceased They've been facing poison gas 7,000 charge en masse Turn the tide of the attack And force the enemy to turn back And that's when the dead men are marching again Osowiec then and again Attack of the dead, hundred men Facing the lead once again Hundred men Charge again Die again Osowiec then and again Attack of the dead, hundred men Facing the lead once again Hundred men Charge again Die again Two combatants spar Hindenburg against the Tsar Move in 12 battalions large Into a Russian counter-charge They'll be fighting for their lives As their enemy revives Russians won't surrender, no Striking fear into their foe And that's when the dead men are marching again Osowiec then and again Attack of the dead, hundred men Facing the lead once again Hundred men Charge again Die again Osowiec then and again Attack of the dead, hundred men Facing the lead once again Hundred men Charge again Die again And that's when the dead men are marching again Osowiec then and again Attack of the dead, hundred men Facing the lead once again Hundred men Charge again Die again Osowiec then and again Attack of the dead, hundred men Facing the lead once again Hundred men Charge again Die again That's when the dead men are marching again, marching again That's when the dead march again 05. The Future Of Warfare Standing in the line of fire 32 will lead the way Coming over trench and wire Going through the endless grey A desolate wasteland Infernal depiction of Hell The birth of a new way September 15, 1916 The first wave approaches At Flers-Courcelette Through fire and brimstone Breaking away, coming your way Standing in the line of fire 32 will lead the way Coming over trench and wire Going through the endless grey Standing in the line of fire Moving on through the fray Coming over trench and wire Live to fight another day The spell has been broken A new way to wage war has come The future of warfare For all to be seen, 1918 The new world approaches Villers-Bretonneux Mechanized warfare Breaking away, coming your way Standing in the line of fire 32 will lead the way Coming over trench and wire Going through the endless grey Standing in the line of fire Moving on through the fray Coming over trench and wire Live to fight another day Standing in the line of fire Moving on through the fray Coming over trench and wire Live to fight another day Standing in the line of fire 32 will lead the way Coming over trench and wire Going through the endless grey Standing in the line of fire Moving on through the fray Coming over trench and wire Live to fight another day 06. Stormtroopers Now there's a standstill in the war, repeating what's been done before It must come to an end, a few will transcend They were under twenty five, and under fire they would thrive The Sturmmann is born, their enemies scorn A glimpse of the future, new tactics in war New doctrine in combat explored As fast as lightning, there's no time to mourn A glimpse of the future and Blitzkrieg is born Strike at zero hour With overwhelming firepower They're fueled by the fear in their enemies eyes It's a shock troop infiltration A fast and violent escalation Out of the trenches the stormtroopers rise Jägers led the way, the pioneers would join the fray Initiative gained, advancement sustained Lead through direct command, as they're advancing through the land Encircling their flanks, and ravage their ranks Expose their reinforcements, destroying their lines New doctrine in combat aligns Infantry attacks, exposing the cracks New combat ideals, on the Kaiserschlacht's fields Strike at zero hour With overwhelming firepower They're fueled by the fear in their enemies eyes It's a shock troop infiltration A fast and violent escalation Out of the trenches the stormtroopers rise A glimpse of the future, new tactics in war New doctrine in combat explored As fast as lightning, there's no time to mourn A glimpse of the future and Blitzkrieg is born Strike at zero hour With overwhelming firepower They're fueled by the fear in their enemies eyes It's a shock troop infiltration A fast and violent escalation Out of the trenches the stormtroopers rise Strike at zero hour With overwhelming firepower They're fueled by the fear in their enemies eyes It's a shock troop infiltration A fast and violent escalation Out of the trenches the stormtroopers rise
