lyrics

WORK MAKES US FREE

Pitiless the barbed wire dealing Death
that round our prison runs
And a sky that knows no feeling
Sends us ice and burning suns

Lost our homes
Lost our loves
Lost our all
To their work in silence fall

Song of Dachau is burnt on our brains
As unyielding as steel we shall be
Work on, we'll go through with the task we've begun
For work, my brothers, work makes us free

Haunted by the gun mouths turning
All our days and nights are spent
Toil is ours - the way we're learning
Harder than we ever dreamt

Lost our homes
Lost our loves
Lost our all
To their work in silence fall

Song of Dachau is burnt on our brains
As unyielding as steel we shall be
Work on, we'll go through with the task we've begun
For work, my brothers, work makes us free

Weeks and months we cease to reckon
Pass, and some forget the years
And so many men are broken
And their faces changed with fears

Song of Dachau is burnt on our brains
As unyielding as steel we shall be
Work on, we'll go through with the task we've begun
For work, my brothers, work makes us free
