In a haunting tribute to resilience and bravery, Sabaton's song narrates the historical event during World War I where Russian soldiers, despite being severely injured by German gas attacks at Osowiec Fortress, mounted a counteroffensive. Dubbed "The Attack of the Dead Men," these soldiers, appearing like zombies with their injuries and bandages, shocked and repelled the advancing German troops. The lyrics powerfully convey the eerie yet awe-inspiring sight of these men who, facing certain death, chose to fight on heroically. This song serves as a reminder of the extraordinary courage shown in desperate times and honors those who fought against overwhelming odds.
The Attack of the Dead Men
Lyrics
Turmoil at the front
Wilhelms forces on the hunt
There's a thunder in the east
It's an attack of the deceased
They've been facing poison gas
7,000 charge en masse
Turn the tide of the attack
And force the enemy to turn back
And that's when the dead men are marching again
Osowiec then and again
Attack of the dead, hundred men
Facing the lead once again
Hundred men
Charge again
Die again
Osowiec then and again
Attack of the dead, hundred men
Facing the lead once again
Hundred men
Charge again
Die again
Two combatants spar
Hindenburg against the Tsar
Move in 12 battalions large
Into a Russian counter-charge
They'll be fighting for their lives
As their enemy revives
Russians won't surrender, no
Striking fear into their foe
And that's when the dead men are marching again
Osowiec then and again
Attack of the dead, hundred men
Facing the lead once again
Hundred men
Charge again
Die again
Osowiec then and again
Attack of the dead, hundred men
Facing the lead once again
Hundred men
Charge again
Die again
And that's when the dead men are marching again
Osowiec then and again
Attack of the dead, hundred men
Facing the lead once again
Hundred men
Charge again
Die again
Osowiec then and again
Attack of the dead, hundred men
Facing the lead once again
Hundred men
Charge again
Die again
That's when the dead men are marching again and again
That's when the dead march again
