Generals
City's Last Stand: Decadence, Revenge, and the Fall
Lyrics
Big city all crapped out revenge is not so sweet
Urban decay is evident, and the desire for revenge is bitter.
Once proud once so devout they're tired and they are weak
Once proud and devoted individuals are now tired and weak.
They came from east to west counting up the cost
People came from east to west, assessing the toll of their actions.
Red star soon to arrive they know that all is lost
A red star symbolizes impending doom, acknowledging the inevitable loss.
And only the wounded remain
Only the wounded, physically or metaphorically, are left behind.
The generals have all left the game
Generals, the leaders, have abandoned the conflict.
With no will to fight
Without the will to fight, the conflict dissipates.
They'll fade with the light
The fading of light signifies the decline of the situation.
There's nobody left they can blame
No one remains to take responsibility or blame.
What once was decadence now's nothing but raized land
Decadence has transformed into barren wasteland.
The end so imminent big city's not so grand
Imminent end, and the once grand city is no longer impressive.
They came they saw they conquered people hid in fear
The conquerors instill fear, looting and harming the people.
They looted raped and plundered angry russian bear
An angry Russian force causing destruction.
And only the wounded remain
Survivors are wounded, and leaders are absent.
The generals have all left the game
Generals have abandoned their roles in the conflict.
With no will to fight
Lack of will to fight leads to the dissolution of the conflict.
They'll fade with the light
The fading of light symbolizes the diminishing hope.
There's nobody left they can blame
No one is left to be held accountable or blamed.
Reichstag flies red flag signalling the end
The Reichstag's red flag signals the end of an era.
Party now bad bad suicide the end
A party that was once lively now succumbs to suicide, indicating the end.
There's some who think that golden years might lie ahead
Some believe in a hopeful future, but leaders are no more, alluding to a bleak reality.
No leaders anymore in the bunker dead
No leaders survive in the bunker; all are dead.
And only the wounded remain
Only the wounded, physical or metaphorical, remain amidst the chaos.
The generals have all left the game
Generals, the guiding figures, have deserted the conflict.
With no will to fight
Lack of will to fight leads to the dissolution of the conflict.
They'll fade with the light
The fading of light symbolizes the diminishing hope.
There's nobody left they can blame
No one is left to be held accountable or blamed.
And only the wounded remain
Only the wounded, physically or metaphorically, remain amidst the chaos.
The generals have all left the game
Generals, the guiding figures, have deserted the conflict.
With no will to fight
Lack of will to fight leads to the dissolution of the conflict.
They'll fade with the light
The fading of light symbolizes the diminishing hope.
The whole world is going insane
A declaration that the entire world is descending into madness.
