about

The original recording of this song appeared as 'Volkerschlachtdenkmal' on Sieben's "The Line & the Hook" album in 2001.

lyrics

Sacrifice content

One stone knight, eagles guard his side. Here the Gods toss fire and mortals sleep. One stone knight, face in opposition. Here the Gods tossed fire and mortals wept. Here the Gods set stone and mortals built. And here the Gods set light and mortals wilt and melt. The sacrifice content, the harnessed poor. The unsure chained. Sixteen sentinels, one face between each pair. Here the Gods look down while mortals vie. Immovable—only their stone corrupts. Here the Gods did frown, eighty thousand died. The sacrifice content, the harnessed poor. The unsure chained.
