Versailles and the Rise

The first war on a global scale has ended
There's been much devastation on a scale there's no comprehending
Europe now lays in ruins and so who is to blame
The German empire of course and they must feel shame
Full surrender so now must come to terms for the peace
To the victor goes the spoils retribution they seek
So at the palace of Versailles in the Hall Of Mirrors
The global powers converged the Germans had no word
It was take it or leave it sign the treaty or war
Would commence once again and you will be destroyed
What could they do? They had to sign away their pride
The people felt they never lost cause Berlin stood high
Taking full responsibility for destruction and loss
Demilitarize and give up territory the German people are lost
New nations where born from the ashes of war
Poland Czechoslovakia the Rhine Lands no more
Carthaginian peace now befalls the land
Of the German Empire it will be hard to stand
Up again after all of their debt to the world
Deep inside they feel slighted persecuted and more
Oh yeah these feelings will soon give rise to a demon
Yeah Versailles is the fuel to the fire of reason
For the Reich that takes over full of rage and hate
Us against the world what they feel what they say
Versailles
Versailles
Versailles
Versailles
The treaty of Versailles
Versailles
Versailles
Versailles
Reparations 442 Billion
The people oh the people were turned villains and
The darkness that would rise will come swift
If only they could foresee what would come the treaty
It would never stick

Tragedy
Tragedy
And Ironically
Creating peace would lead to war
Tragedy
Tragedy
And Ironically
Creating peace would lead to more war!

A scudo peace would consume the land
And one mans hatred would start to boil like mad
The treaty was a disgrace to their national pride
That same pride would be used by the radical side

To seize power cause the old government was to blame
That type of weakness the new regime grew to disdain
Revolution was needed in the minds of madness
One mind one man would be the leader of this socialist chapter
Hitler a name that would soon chill bones
Saw that the German people longed to feel pride once more
And he would use that longing yes to seize control
Violently rob the world of the new peace that it knows
Hatred anger is the leading cause
1923 the beer hall when the Weimar falls
But he failed yes they failed and accused of treason
But the charisma he possessed would save his demons
5 years was the sentence my struggle the result
So the radicals that grew stronger could have been stopped
The foundations of terror nursed right under their nose
And released with little thought to let his plans run their course

And so it begins!
The rise the rise the rise
Here we go
The rise the rise the rise
Of a wolf in sheep's clothes
Freedom Hitler now has gained
But Germany is booming there's no need for change
A violent political party would never gain their votes
So they need to change their image if they want control
Learn to dress learn to speak learn to fool your foes
Slowly gaining credibility so no one knows
Just the how the monster in their midst had plans to destroy
The innocence of the world so cruel so bold

The rise the rise the rise
The rise the rise the rise
And so it begins!

He rose he rose he rose
In his heart a plan to destroy
He rose he rose he rose
A wolf in sheep's clothes

Propaganda
A wolf in sheep's clothes
An image that is crafted by a man Joseph Goebbels
He was in fact infatuated by the Nazi leader
So he would stop at nothing to feed the German people
Just lie after lie till there was no more denying
Hitler seemed to be the man the Germans could confide in
Lead them to the future rebuild their souls
Not knowing in a few short years he would lead them to War
