[Verse 1]
Combing the streets
Public addressing
The people are sorted
By gender and age
[Chorus]
Shadow of the future
Shadow of the past
One minute of silence
Made out of wood
[Verse 2]
The men are lined up
Then shot into graves
The children are murdered
The women enslaved
[Chorus]
Shadow of the future
Shadow of the past
One minute of silence
Made out of wood
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Chorus]
Shadow of the future
Shadow of the past
One minute of silence
Made out of wood
Shadow of the future
Shadow of the past
One minute of silence
Made out of wood
