27,000 Days Ago

Give or take a few days, oblivion ended in Europe
The greatest threat to world peace had been ended
Red Army units broke through to Berlin, Germany
American, French and British Empire units drove
Into those realms shattered by the Nazi occupation
This is so very long ago, why keep speaking of it?
We should remember, the Holocaust, damnation
The people killed for their race, forced starvation
So remember the end, remember what it required
Let us honor the dead
Let us lift their bodies upon the pyres
