Wake of a Nation

"I know how you're going to die" Whispers weary mother to child We’ve seen this all before you were born We've seen this all before I know how you're going to waste It’s written in the hidden sides of your face The cries and screams of all you have done It tears at the seams today While others bleed from all you have done You tend to your own wounds I know how you're going to die It's written into menace and pride The cries and screams of all you have done It tears at the seams today Er hat dir gesagt, dass er keine Luft bekommt Acht Minuten lang Ein Schrei ins Dunkle

We brought you up, we'll bring you down We're riling up We're riling up This American carcass beckons Don't fall asleep at the wake of a nation The king is dead Dies irae... Beyond the shadow of a doubt again The king is dead Better look alive than disappear my friend Dies irae Now you're just one of a billion The king is dead Not worth the hassle but you can still pretend Dies irae Gib uns die Gabe, gib uns deine Lorbeeren Gib uns die gäbe sofort The king is dead And it seems we ain't playing anymore Pick it out, file your complaint at the door Don't you think we grow tame over time The king is dead, don't you get Dies irae This American carcass beckons Don't fall asleep at the wake of a nation Dies irae This American carcass beckons Don't fall asleep Gib uns die Gabe, gib uns deine Lorbeeren Gib uns die Gabe sofort Gib uns die Gabe, gib uns deine Lorbeeren Gib uns die Gabe sofort The king is dead
