Crooked Cross

A generation lost and burned in fire
A knight bearing a Cross of Iron
His brothers served a crooked cross
Each in uniforms of black and gloss
The nation paid a price of sacrifice
Each gave all, the entire of their life
Fighting for a wrong and lost cause
For a leader awash in moral flaws
But what could they do
They obeyed
They fought
Raised to die
They were consumed
