The eyes behind the smoke

Why rid the earth of filth when the filth was you
you took over in Germany when they had no idea what to do
You led them to dismay, you took our rights away
you told them that because we were different we were wrong
to our death sentence we march on
you tore through our houses, smashed the windows of our store,
but to my heart I rid the pain because the sight of you is no more
you told the people because we were different, we were wrong
to our death sentence we march on,
onto the trains we were shoved
being seperated from our blood
the ones we loved
we arrived at the camp, the sight of scare,
there we were tattooed, yanked, and ripped of our hair
we worked to death, and to death we were worked
and even at times when I needed to stop I couldn't even though it hurt
you told the people because we were different, we were wrong
to our death sentence we march on
even though I was very tired, and wished to sleep at night
I couldnt get in a single rest due to coldness and fright
we weren't fed much so I was pale and thin
I cried on the inside, hoping not to give in
you told the people, because we were different we were wrong
to our death sentence we march on
I saw the building with smoke about
I heard a scream of pain cry out
that there is a crematorium where people are burned
my heart sank into my shoes as a new pain I earned
I walked past the execution wall where the people were shot
as they laughed saying they deserved what they got
I walked among the gallows where the people were hung to their death
as I touched the ropes hoping in peace they will rest
you told the people because they were different they were wrong
to our death sentence we march on
the next horror I passed were the chambers filled with gas
as it filled the innocence lungs
I know they wouldn't last
I wished to leave this place, escape
to run through the barbed wire at the top of the gate
it wasn't Germany I was furious with
it is Hitler I hate
you told the people because we were different we were wrong
to our death sentence we march on
you thought you were successful, that you had reached total fame,
but it was us who wereblessed when the Americans came
this is the story of the little Polish girl
who once lived in a place called the prejudice world
