Snakes of Eden - Out of Grozny
Lyrics:
I cannot say a word so I’ll write my story down
Of walking on my comrades’ bodies lying on the ground
Across the Russian minefield they saved us with their lives
“Meet you in paradise” they shouted as they died
Allah Akbar
Mohammed walks beside me
In the winter out of Grozny
Meet you in paradise
We bribed the Russian general one hundred thousand cash
Our recon team went out ahead but they never made it back
Commander Shamil Basaev said we’ll go out ahead
The first explosion took his leg and left three commanders dead
Allah Akbar
Mohammed walks beside me
In the winter out of Grozny
Meet you in paradise
As the first mines went off and the wind began to blow
Their artillery shells and rockets screamed down into our ranks
So many brave mujahideen we left out on the snow
We didn’t want to leave them there, I didn’t want to go
Allah Akbar
Mohammed walks beside me
In the winter out of Grozny
Meet you in paradise
Allah Akbar
Mohammed walks beside me
In the winter out of Grozny
Meet you in paradise
The villagers of Alxan-Kala took the wounded in their homes
No medicines, no pain killers for the hacksaw cutting bones
Doctor Malika Sabieva turned away from the wounded men
We don’t know what to do, we have nothing for them
Allah Akbar
Mohammed walks beside me
In the winter out of Grozny
Meet you in paradise
