8. Killing Ground (4:24)
At Fraustadt the Swedish forces faced
An army almost twice its size.
And on that day we showed the world not only
Our superiority in battle but also
How cruel man can be.
Frozen ground,
Ride with the wind
Emerge from the gunsmoke like demons
Rehnskiöld's men
Charging their flanks
The enemy trembles with fear
One by one the Saxons disband
Or die where they stand
Killing ground
Even though you surrender
Turn around
You will never survive
Killing ground
At the battle of Fraustadt
Fall in line
Battle formations
Show no fear
Riding them down
Break their will
Show them no mercy
Caroleans attack
Round them up, look into their eyes
They beg for their lives
See the Caroleans standing tall
All for one and one for all
Enemies fall at their feet
Begging for their mercy
See the Caroleans standing tall
Conquer lands and slaughter all
Enemies fall at their feet
Victory and great defeat
An army almost twice its size.
And on that day we showed the world not only
Our superiority in battle but also
How cruel man can be.
Frozen ground,
Ride with the wind
Emerge from the gunsmoke like demons
Rehnskiöld's men
Charging their flanks
The enemy trembles with fear
One by one the Saxons disband
Or die where they stand
Killing ground
Even though you surrender
Turn around
You will never survive
Killing ground
At the battle of Fraustadt
Fall in line
Battle formations
Show no fear
Riding them down
Break their will
Show them no mercy
Caroleans attack
Round them up, look into their eyes
They beg for their lives
See the Caroleans standing tall
All for one and one for all
Enemies fall at their feet
Begging for their mercy
See the Caroleans standing tall
Conquer lands and slaughter all
Enemies fall at their feet
Victory and great defeat
