Puppet of the Mighty

歌詞

Unknown soldier, I stand here at your grave And thoughts are running through my brain Perhaps, when the war begun you were as old as I am And it took your dreams, took your dreams Unknown soldier I stand here at your grave Only born and brought up for the war Only killing around to live obediently until death For your native land [Chorus:] Puppet of the mighty You have seen how they died, belonged to their cries Not those who wanted the war and fought the battle at home Puppet of the mighty The poison of fear has poisoned you With us the threads of the puppet are destroyed anyhow Unknown soldier every year in front of your grave They stand and hold speeches and were never there The war has hardly passed, new weapons for the country And your death was for nothing, was really for nothing [Chorus] Puppet of the mighty you have seen how they died Puppet of the mighty belonged to their cries Day by day only the fear it had poisoned you. Live for death and die for nothing Everything senseless all for the mighty They think they are God But God doesn't want this insanity You could say that I'm ill But one day they'll get their bill [Chorus] Puppet of the mighty you have seen how they died Puppet of the mighty belonged to their cries Day by day only the fear it had poisoned you
