lyrics

Letters to the front
Daddy, please, write me a letter, as I am longing for you
Every evening on the doorstep, I am looking out for you

Daughter, I’m coming home as soon as possible
I’ve met some enemies, I feel invincible

Over and over on the radio war news reports about the fight
I have to fear about your life, I suffer day and night

Sweet daughter, there’re still a few bullets in my gun
My mission on the enemy line’s not yet done

I heard the old devil laugh and yell
When I was marching to the gates of hell
They gave me a gun and an order to strike
But I was killing with an open dislike

Father, oh, but at war, there are usually two unfriendly sides
I'm not sure which is the right one, If you’re fighting for freedom

My daughter, I’ll tell you when you grow old
That despite the torment I learned to be bold

I heard the old devil laugh and yell
When I was marching to the gates of hell
They gave me a gun and an order to strike
So I was killing but without much pride

Father, in these concrete walls, there are many bullet holes
Footprints on the bloody floor, what happened a while ago?

My daughter, believe me, the world is not kind
You were young, now you’re grown, make up your mind

Father, in these concrete walls, there are many bullet holes
People lying on the floor, they won't wake up anymore

Sometimes you wake up and the world has been changed
It has a deep scar and it will remain there

I heard the old devil laugh, and yell
When I was marching to the gates of hell
They gave me a gun and an order to strike
And I was killing with obvious pride

My conscience was gone when I got power
I locked myself in a golden tower
Since then I’ve lived nowhere but in my illusions
I deceived myself by many delusions
I ended up lying in mud and clay
And there I dreamed about your face and prayed

Grandfather, now you have three grandchildren
In the attic, they found your rifle hidden
They know you only from moth-eaten pictures
Yet they keep asking me questions
They know you only from moth-eaten pictures
Yet they keep asking me questions
What am I supposed to tell them now?
