After years of torture
the war is over now
Our so called leader found another path to go
So I'm on my way back to my homeland to my friends
And I'm looking forward to see my wife and son again
Then I see some black smoke in the air
Where is my house, where is my land
They say the ruins
I'm standing on
Are the graveyard of my son.
Thunder in the silence
Our soldiers fought and died
Thunder in the silence
Our leader grew their might
Thunder in the silence
See the burning land
Thunder in the silence
I'm coming home again
I'm coming home again
They said we'd fight for glory
For our children to be free.
But now that all is over, there is no one left to be
I'm standing on that wasteland.
Under blackened trees
And below the ashes lies my family
And I still remember the day I left
When my little son stood up from bed
"Will we meet again with tears he asked
And I betrayed 'cause
I said: "Yes!"
Thunder in the silence
Our soldiers fought and died
Thunder in the silence
Our leader grew their might
Thunder in the silence
See the burning land
Thunder in the silence
I'm coming home again
I'm coming home again
And what if all the ones I killed
Where the sons of a father like myself
Thunder in the silence
Our soldiers fought and died
Thunder in the silence
Our leader grew their might
Thunder in the silence
See the burning land
Thunder in the silence
I'm coming home again
I'm coming home again
What will our children learn
When all our houses burn?
What will our children learn
When all our houses burn?
When the thunder fills the sky
And on the earth our children die.
Then a man of true honor feels the pain.
With his hands full of blood he is home again
A false king has told him lies
He lost his son, he lost his wife
He takes his sword for the last, casts his spell
And he judged all false leaders, than himself
When the thunder fills the sky
And on the earth our children die.
Then a man of true honor feels the pain.
When all our houses burn?
What will our children learn
When all our houses burn?
When all our houses burn?
What will our children learn
