Cloaked in Silence - Minenwerfer

Alone

In Silence I hunt

Holding my breath

Concealed I am death

Eyes of an eagle

Searching for prey

Through sights of iron

Hidden in grey

Through forests and fog

The smoke and the smog

A single shot

From your blind spot

All becomes quiet

Except a cold breeze

A hunter in silence

Hidden among the trees

Nothing but prey in my sights

A tracker at night

Haunting the cliffs

Exploiting weaknesses

Encamped in mist

Saluting your officers

Simplifies my job

Take aim with my rifle

His life I will rob

A mountian of fire

I take my revenge

Chamber a round

And look through the lens

My homeland invaded

By foreign empires

A silent assassin

Behind the barbed wire

A vanguard sharpshooter

With nothing to lose

I collect your medals

Souvenirs I choose

Cloaked in silence

A hunter’s gaze

Cloaked in silence

A sniper’s last days

Cloaked in silence

Never a sound

Cloaked in silence

Welcome to the hunting ground

Searching for glory

As blood covers the snow

The peaks and praries

Of my alpine home

Searching for glory

I hold my breath

Through meadows and hilltops

The alps are your death
