Lyrics

In this cold aftermath

In the aftermath of a cold event

Where the blood has dried at last

Where the blood has finally dried

Soldiers lay scattered around

Soldiers are scattered around

In the fields of death, a fading sound

In the fields of death, a fading sound is heard


They came to die they came to die

Expressing the purpose: They came to die

They came to die

Reiteration of the purpose: They came to die


A shameful march without a sound

Describing a march marked by shame and silence

With weapons pointed at the ground

Soldiers with weapons lowered, perhaps symbolizing surrender

They came out of the mist

Emerging from obscurity or danger

So it all came down to this

Alluding to a critical moment or decision

Now approaching our lines

Advancing towards their enemy's lines

Heavens cry, their souls have died

Heavens cry, suggesting a tragic and sorrowful event

Christ is dead or so it seems

Reference to the death of Christ or a loss of faith

Death before loyalty they came to die

Choosing death over loyalty

They came to die they came to die

Reiteration of the purpose: They came to die


In nomine Patris et Filii et Spiritus Sancti

Latin phrase: In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit

Death before loyalty

Choosing death before loyalty (repeated)


They came to die they came to die

Reiteration of the purpose: They came to die

They came to die

-

In nomine Patris et Filii et Spiritus

Latin phrase: In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit

They came to die

Reiteration of the purpose: They came to die
