Lyrics:

Lorelei whispers
As the river bends
Love letters
They never had the chance to send

A German requiem
A German requiem

Everything is tearing
As there's no one here to mend
Broken windows
And marks you cannot spend

A German requiem
A German requiem

A prince in his castle
A thief in his den
Thirty pieces of silver
And the murder of a friend

A German requiem
A German requiem

Barbed tongues and barbed wire
Dark angels descend
The dead with swords, the dead with pens
A German requiem

A German requiem
A German requiem
A German requiem
A German requiem
