Sirens are wailing, systems are failing

 Another line has been overrun

 Bombers in the air, raining hatred and despair

 So many that they cover the sun

 Call the counterattack, drive the enemy back

 Through their lines we must break through

 With full scale fighting, our charge becomes lightning

 Breaking the red army in two

 From foxhole to foxhole, over barbed wire

 Dodging the enemy mines

 Past fallen comrades into the face of death

 I charge the enemy lines

 From the deserts of Africa to the Russian steppes

 I've battled through the heat and the cold

 Each scar tells you a story

 And that's why I behold, the iron cross

 Behold, the iron cross

 Behold, the iron cross

 Behold, the iron cross

 Armored divisions pound their positions

 Call in the stuka attack

 Past screaming rockets, we break the encircled pocket

 Never to look back

 Stubborn resistance, full scale persistence

 Orders from the high command

 Make the stand to the last man it's all for the fatherland

 Bogged in mire under constant fire

 Atrocity victims lie dead in the snow

 The guerrilla hunt will be swift and blunt

 Reprisals will be tenfold

 I was awarded for my fierceness in battle

 Even though it all seemed lost

 Crossed swords and oak leaves now

 Decorate my cross! behold, the iron cross

 Behold, the iron cross

 Behold, the iron cross

 Behold, the iron cross

 Panzers rolling death bell tolling

 A nations loss never to be healed

 Smoke and fire a funeral pyre

 Charred remains litter the battle field

 Agony screams shattered dreams

 Another life is lost

 Insanity grows

 Limbs are froze in the dead of the winters frost

 Hard as steel nothing I feel

 Honor has healed my wounds

 Machine gun bursts quench my thirst

 My bayonet is perched to run you through

 Exploding shells frozen hells

 I've survived my every test

 Skorzeny, Meier, Florian Geyer

 I've fought beside the very best

 BEHOLD!
