Introduced as weapon during World War I
Both used by the Allies and Germany
Among the chocking chlorine and phosgene
Was the blinding mustardgas, its colour yellow-green
Unreliable weapons, primitive minds
Rebounding the attacker, primitive times
Throw another one into air
Should the course alter, would it be fair?
The experience is felt, gasmasks for air
Down in the trenches, the dead are the bare
Patriotic pride, stop at nothing
Dying to see the opponent suffering

Die, in a confrontation
As it comes down
You will never see the light of this declining world again
Die, by the gas
As it comes down
You will never see the light... you're dead

Ypres, Verdun, Somme & Passchendaele
These were the places battles dwelled
Gunnery rumbling, gloomy expressions
Plunging thousands into depression
