Dresden

"History is written by the winners."
Alex Haley

We won't forget that fateful night
A sea of flames was the only sight
Firebombs being dropped endlessly
Thousands of refugees running desperately

Remember all the panic and terror
Of human targets amongst the ruins
And never forget the screams of pain
Of those who died in the flames

How could they escape that living hell?
Fiery death descending from the sky
Innocent victims in a war of madness
Sacrificed in the real Holocaust

Remember the former greatness
Now crumbling down in desolation
Whole cities devastated
No way to stop this mass extermination

Amongst destruction and chaos
Our faith remains unbroken
We're like phoenix rising
From the ashes of death
