He sat in a room
in a square of the color of blood.
He'd rule the whole world
if there was a way that he could.
He'd sit and he'd stare
at the minreds on top of the towers.
For he was a beast
as he hatched his new plans to gain power.
And the snow fell
covering the dreams and ideals.
And the snow fell
freezing the blood and the wheels.
And the snow fell
they had to keep up for survival.
And the snow fell
defeating the beast's only rival.
They took the old roads
that Napoleon had taken before.
They fought as a force as a light
against the darkness in a holy war.
One day they were looking around
and the sun was shining on the cold flowers.
The next day they were freezing to death
in the sleet and the ice cold showers.
And the snow fell
covering the dreams and ideals.
And the snow fell
freezing the blood and the wheels.
And the snow fell
they had to keep up for survival.
And the snow fell
defeating the beast's only rival.
Then came the deadly roads
back from the stairs of their retreat.
The cold racked their bodies
but worse was the pain of defeat.
Many people who had hailed them once
now turned and looked away.
These people now knew
that the beast was on it's way.
And the snow fell
covering the dreams and ideals.
And the snow fell
freezing the blood and the wheels.
And the snow fell
they had to keep up for survival.
And the snow fell
defeating the beast's only rival.
You finally came back
to the borders of your fatherland.
Now enemies came
traitors everywhere at hand.
Many people who had fought and died
knowing that they had to win.
It still sickens my heart
to see the picture of the red flag in Berlin.

I think that people should know that Saga is signed with Resistance Records, a "pro-White activism" label. This song is clearly highlighting the fact that she is pro White power. Whether you agree with this position or not, you should know what this song is about.
To me this song appears to be about WW2 when the Germans tried to invade Russia.

"in a square of the color of blood" - the Red Square in Moscow

"And the snow fell, defeating the beast's only rival" - the beast is Stalin and the German army suffered heavy defeats in WW2 due to the cold winter (the plan was to have won the war with Russia prior to snow fall - hence most likely the reason for the song's title).

"to the borders of your fatherland" - reference to Germany

I also...
I also believe this is a Skrewdriver cover. The song writer (Ian Stuart) was a "white power" supporter, and it appears this song sympathises with the plight of the German army (but probably in the writer's opinion more with the ideals of Hitler and Nazism).
"to see the picture of the red flag in Berlin" - the establishment of East Berlin (the Communist Bloc)
this is for the prog rock band Saga, not the swedish singer.

anyone with an IQ above room temperature will instantly know this song is about WW2 and the defeat of the last great heroes we will probably ever see. Remember: The victors write history books. Yes, we can pin at least 6 million Jewish deaths on Hitler but far greater tragedies have happened before and will in all likeliness happen again. The heroic communists in the USSR are responsible for at least 10 million deaths, The venerable Chinese are responsible for (some experts estimate) as many as 100 million deaths. Chairman Mao murdered 16x more people and is not nearly as reviled as Hitler.
she is sick when singing:
They took the old roads that Napoleon had taken before. They fought as a force as a light against the darkness in a holy war.
Nazis attacked Russia, exactly as Napoleon did in the past, but were crushed by Russians and their winter! :) Russians are the only true nordic people, not the stupid and incapable so called "nordic" german tribes...no one will ever conquer Russia just because of its vastness and harsh condition during winter. And she is soo stupid calling Hitler and Napoleon holy warriors! Agressive bastards they were...
@tomas10154 - The good guys lost WW2 & you're the product of an indoctrinated, brainwashed class of imbeciles too stupid to study history. Germany the size of Texas, Italy the size of Florida, Japan the size of California... so basically 3 US states took on the entire planet Earth, including 2 superpowers & ALMOST won. They were clearly superior & the spoils of war which included NASA, CIA, priceless science stolen from Berlin prove it to this day. The 40 million Germans (mostly civilians) that died is hardly mentioned as they were slaughtered like cattle after...

The 40 million Germans (mostly civilians) that died is hardly mentioned as they were slaughtered like cattle after the war...but we always here about 6 million Jews. This song is not only GREAT...but catalogues a great group of soldiers retreating against a Russian Force who's only choice was to die in the field or die in retreat from Stalin's hand. REAL history is complex with layers of variables & what happened to Germany after this retreat is the crime of 1000 years. You're a public schooled clown dipshit who has zero clue & should be slapped in the face for having such a low IQ.
@tomas10154 You're actually cheering the victory of the USSR? Because Europe was such a paradise for the next 50 years, or what? "We have defeated the wrong enemy." Gen. George Patton
