スティル・エコーズ (ライヴ・フロム・ロック・アム・リング)

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

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 resistence here

Southeast Asia in a Euro cellblock
Saigon's children conceal what they've got
The opium trail runs west through here
They're selling disease to erase all your fears

A thousand years of failure, a thousand years they bled
To the bear, the blitzkrieg, and the holy father
They just bowed their heads.
I won't bow my head
