Sacrifice your son, husband, and father
For the motherland yes this is war
Coming to the aid of an allie in peril
Serbia facing guns more and more
The German Empire shares an eastern border
The Russian generals move to mount
Mobilizing troops the likes that's never been seen
And history will shudder to recount
The German cities in the east start to panic
One by one all the way to Tennenberg
The German high command looks to conjure up images
Teutonic Knights make a stand that is heard
And the Russians march advancing the line
When the two armies meet it's an all out inferno
This battle will be crucial to both empires
In the end even more so
When they think about empires rising
They will remember how they fall
When they think about an empires fall
They will think of the battle fields, we cross
We cross
Struggle struggle
Their pushing their pulling
All along the one the way
People falling or moving
It's a struggle a struggle
Their pushing their pulling
All along the way
Soldiers falling not moving
Not moving
Assurances made to the French they will attack
The Russians will advance before they're ready to advance
Two army groups under command of Zhillinsky
Move waves of men so vast it's an ocean
Set to crash down on the shores of Eastern Prussia
And to the South envelope Germans is the notion
Communication lax so there plans are intercepted
By the German high command a disaster in motion
The Russians two armies are slowed by logistics
The soldiers lack provisions the armies are spread
Spread apart by a 60 mile gap
Dense forest and lakes dot the land where there at
Chaos the men in disarray
Rennekampfs army crosses into East Prussia
As Samsanov reaches the Southern frontier
But both Russian armies are slowing to a crawl
In Germany command is shifting
Hindenburg and Ludendorff seize on this moment
The Germans launch a plan to hit the flanks and encircle
Hoffman is the architect of this move, so potent
So potent
Struggle struggle
Their pushing their pulling
All along the one the way
People falling or moving
It's a struggle a struggle
Their pushing their pulling
All along the way
Soldiers falling not moving
Mar-ching
Marching to battle
Lo-sing
Your wits when your dismantled
The Germans move swift
While the Russians they stalled
Attacking Samsanov
Hit his flanks watch them fall
No communication for the two russian armies
So Samasanovs men are doomed to the folly
The Germans set up to bombard they have won
The Russian line disintegrates the men feel the guns
At their mercy you don't want to surrender
But at their mercy life or death you remember
In the dense forest that is shrouded they surrender
Wanna set eyes on the home you remember
At their mercy you don't want to surrender
But at their mercy life or death you remember
In the dense forest that is shrouded they surrender
Wanna set eyes on the home you remember
Again
Again
Again
Again
Tanenberg
Where they claim victory
And in droves
They surrender a real tragedy
Samsanov wanders
On his horse so lost
Till he stops and dismounts
Ends his life with a shot
92 thousand are taken prisoner
When the German army completely encircles
A victory with implications on the Western front
So the Germans can focus on the French and British Entente
At their mercy you don't want to surrender
But at their mercy life or death you remember
In the dense forest that is shrouded they surrender
Wanna set eyes on the home you remember
At their mercy you don't want to surrender
But at their mercy life or death you remember
In the dense forest that is shrouded they surrender
Wanna set eyes on the home you remember
Again
Again
Again
So when they think about empires rising
They will remember how they fall
When they think about an empires fall
They will think of the battle fields, we cross
We cross
We cross
We cross
Tanenberg
