I had grand dreams, oh yes, Steel eagles, golden banners, the whole grotesque mess. I danced with bankers in shadowed halls, While painting swastikas on crumbling walls... I roared on balconies, I strutted the stage, But they pulled the strings, I just mouthed the rage. They fed me thunder, they sold me flame, But took the profits in someone else’s name. They kissed my boots, then ran to Zurich, Took their gold and left me in the dirge. I spoke of purity, fire and land, But they just wanted oil and a steady hand. You think I ruled? I was ruled. They printed my face, then used me like a tool. Now I rot in the attic of Europe’s shame, While they toast new wars in a different name. They sold me out, oh what a joke! Fed me smoke, left me broke. I died in fire, they thrived in suits, Now I’m just dust beneath their boots. Fascism’s a circus and I was the clown, They cheered while I burned the town. They won. I screamed. The dream? Diseased. You! Boy in the black coat, look away. Don’t you dare march where I once swayed. I wasn’t strong, I wasn’t wise, Just a puppet with louder lies. They needed a monster... And I fit the mold. But monsters die While markets hold. They sold me out, champagne cold, Hung me up, then bought more gold. I raved, I screamed, I claimed a throne, But in the end, I died alone. Now kids wear boots they don’t understand, While suits redraw lines on someone else’s land. So sing! Sing of my fall! And don’t believe the uniforms at all. Not glory... Not fate... Just fear... Just hate. They wrote the script... I wore the mask. And when the act was done, They never looked back.
