Now we face again, history recurs, west vs. east, tensions grow again
The skirmish reigns for 100 years, which system will disappear
who will be the stronger one, proven through superior force
Who, will push, the red, button
Cuba crisis, power measurement, black saturday, world on the edge
powerless we watch the scene, the future brings uncertainty
the game the mighty ones now play, will they drop the bomb, give in
Old world order, nuclear tyrants reborn
ready to crush the earth, no one would survive
madness or sanity, will we live or die
Cold war shadows, mutual distrust, evil empires, propaganda art
red star against stars and stripes, collectivism against individual strenght
secret wars decide the game, wepons for confederates
Missiles in position, aircraft in the skies, submarines prepare , for the final strike
Missiles in position, millions watch the tv screens
aircraft in the skies, children playing on the streets
submarines prepare, mankind holds its breath again, for the final strike
When the clock strikes midnight, mushroom clouds grow worldwide
few decide about mankind, they lead us to eternal night
when the clock strikes midnight, there’s no sign of hope just lifeless eyes
the leaders of the endtime dare to open pandoras box
Even now, after the wall dropped, they show their fists again, the story never ends
an ancient rivalry, cold war and conspiracy, thousands of nuclear arms, m.a.d. doctrine
