Bound For Glory

Bound For Glory - 20 Kilometers lyrics

Divisions stand at the border prepared for the Eastern trek

Operation Barbarossa is launched into full effect

The border is crossed, the assault begins, massed in furious waves

The spark is lit, the shelling starts, blitzkrieg sets the stage

Over the marshes and the plains

The panzers start to roll

Death from above raining missiles

The stukas take their toll

The brave soldiers of Europe

Set out to join the East and West

Against the red dragon

Mother Eurpoe sent her best

With full speed ahead, they were gaining ground

Into the heart of the enemy

They liberated the villages and towns from the yoke of tyranny

They were welcomed as heros, over the cities their standard flew

It was mass victory in the East in the summer of 42

They drove on with amazing speed

Until they were outside Moscows gates

They had the kremlin in their sights

But they didn't know what hell awaits

Victory was so close in their grasp

For their volk, their nation and their blood

Then the rain set in for endless days

Turning the ground to mud

Chorus:

There's 20 more kilometers to go

As the November rains turn into snow

Just 20 more kilometers to go

So near, yet so far from delivering the final blow

Their move was coming to a halt,

They were running out of supplies

Their tanks immobile in the mud,

The earth was swallowing them alive

The cold set in, freezing the men,

General winter reared his head

Yet the fight was on in this frozen land

That claimed so many dead

The Bolslevik resistance grew

Their manpower and supplies had no end

Now the attacking soldiers of Europe

Had to turn to defend

Against Asiatic hordes enforced

By allied supplies

How could the allies support communism

And its Marxist lies?

(Repeat Chorus) x2

20 more kilometers to go...
