Lyrics :

Spring in Macedonia
The last clean pocket on a blood-soaked coat
In a state of claustrophobia
Waiting for the rain to wash it all out

Chorus 1 :
Fear in their eyes, did the crucifix lie?
Did the words of the church run dry?
Fear in their eyes, did the crucifix lie?
Did the words of the church run dry?

Meeting on the road to Basra
You half-blind in a blood-soaked coat
Me, I'm a fallen angel
Fallen from the burning tree of doubt

(Chorus 1)

Chorus 2 :
I'm a witness to the moon and the stars above
I'm aware of the crimson sky
I'm a witness to the crumbling walls as well
But I'm not your alibi
(2x)

War is the last sensation
The final song with the longest note
Like a silence, never broken
War is the book that nobody wrote

(Chorus 1 & 2)
