Beyond a Distant Front

Beyond a distant front Deep behind the lines In preparation for a battle Shrouded in secrecy Amounting, the logistics Heavy armour and weaponry Surprise is the key element Before the other could act Deliver a decisive blow Cross the separation line And thrusting forward With unrelenting force Vast columns of battle tanks Catch them all off guard They don’t have the armament Just drive straight to the capital Burn it all down Push straight through Keep the swift advance To avoid the reinforcements Staying on the offensive Which can’t be maintained long Keep the swift advance With unrelenting force

Cold calculations With plans to bleed the French army white Forcing to a defensive stance Launch the indelible insanity War of attrition Colossal bombardment strike will begin Erich von Falkenhayn The architect of it all Solid preparations on the German side Vast amounts of weaponry and equipment Artillery in form Naval guns, thousands of cannons - big berthas in use Howitzers lined up, millions of shells in store Railways built before, everything was geared up For the first nine hours of immensive fire Starting it like never witnessed before Expecting to move at a rapid rate Harsh, muddy soil Shelled to shambles Unexpected resistance The French are defending it at all costs Capturing Fort Douaumont "Without a shot" Closing the village In heavy snowfall "They shall not pass" Supplying through the sacred way Arriving to the meat grinder Into the hell of Verdun To the hell Of Verdun Initial plans of this operation Gericht Not so fulfilled, resulting in a mess Trying to reach all the forts, strongpoints of Verdun The resistance was strong, losses turn out to be high Poison gasses spread over, Flamethrowers annihilate Going over the top The rats are eating the rotting corpses The stench of death is overbearing Soldiers exhausted, grinded to the muddy soil The stench of death is overbearing
