The Burning Red Army
Blazing trails across the new frontier
Red army suffers near
Their blame laid for all to see
Burning in their empty chests
hollow place scorched dark red
In the minds of their enemy
Their soul on fire
skin pure memory
Fate put them on the path
To history
No skin to make black and blue
No hide to tan
The trail behind them burnt beyond repair
The demonic sound of living nightmares
Fate put them on their path
To history
The enemy Too big to fear
Put the fire in their chests
Their souls made of pure regret
The enemy Too big to care
The enemy Too big to fear
Lit the fire in their heart
Blew the red armies apart
The enemy Too big to care
Fate put them on their path
To history
Skin blistering
In the light of a newly burning sun
Ultra violent reaction
To the taste of blood coagulum
Fate put them on their path
To history
Nothing left to redeem
Time to piece together the reason
Soul fire burns
All those lost in the red legions
Red army suffers near
Their blame laid for all to see
Burning in their empty chests
hollow place scorched dark red
In the minds of their enemy
Their soul on fire
skin pure memory
Fate put them on the path
To history
No skin to make black and blue
No hide to tan
The trail behind them burnt beyond repair
The demonic sound of living nightmares
Fate put them on their path
To history
The enemy Too big to fear
Put the fire in their chests
Their souls made of pure regret
The enemy Too big to care
The enemy Too big to fear
Lit the fire in their heart
Blew the red armies apart
The enemy Too big to care
Fate put them on their path
To history
Skin blistering
In the light of a newly burning sun
Ultra violent reaction
To the taste of blood coagulum
Fate put them on their path
To history
Nothing left to redeem
Time to piece together the reason
Soul fire burns
All those lost in the red legions
