Hearts of Iron

See the reich in flames
Try to save Berlin in vain
It’s a road through death and pain
On the other shore there’s the end of the war
Who could ever have believed seems like nothing’s been achieved
Just to walk a day go all the way the fronts are closing in
As the end is drawing near the 12: th army interfere
Open up a route get people out its forces spread out thin
It’s the end of the war
(Hold the corridor)
Reach for Elbe’s shore
It’s the end the war has been lost
Keeping them safe 'til the river’s been crossed
Nicht ein schlacht ein rettungsaktion
Holding their ground 'til the final platoon
«Hurry up we’re waiting for you»
Men of the 9: th and civilians too
Dispossessed surrendering to the west
Who’ll survive and who will die up to Kriegsglück to decide
Whose who made it cross without a loss have reason to reflect
It is not about Berlin it is not about the reich
It’s about the men who fought for them what peace can they expect
It’s the end of the war
(Hold the corridor)
Reach for Elbe’s shore
It’s the end the war has been lost
Keeping them safe 'til the river’s been crossed
Nicht ein schlacht ein rettungsaktion
Holding their ground 'til the final platoon
«Hurry up we’re waiting for you»
Men of the 9: th and civilians too
Dispossessed surrendering to the west
See the city burn on the other side
Going down in flames as two worlds collide
Who can now look back with a sense of pride
On the other shore there’s the end of the war
It’s the end the war has been lost
Keeping them safe 'til the river’s been crossed
Nicht ein schlacht ein rettungsaktion
Holding their ground 'til the final platoon
«Hurry up we’re waiting for you»
Men of the 9: th and civilians too
Dispossessed surrendering to the
See the city burn on the other side
Going down in flames as two worlds collide
Who can now look back with a sense of pride
On the other shore there’s the end of the war
See the reich in flames
Try to save Berlin in vain
It’s a road through death and pain
On the other shore there’s the end of the war
