Obviously written from the perspective of one of the few Germans who were no followers of Hitler during World War II. Someone who's waiting for the allied forces to finally bring down his fatherland - so that through total destruction (of the "Thrid Reich") he'll finally have the chance to be free again.
For a German band, these are quite exceptional, impressive lyrics. Although a vast majority of Germans accepts that WWII was caused by Germany, of course, still a large number of people here claim that the bombing of Dresden (and all the other German cities) was a crime or something. Although it actually was the only way to end the reign of terror and was obviously well deserved - what these lyrics make absolutely clear. Thankfully.
