Колизей [Kolizey] [English translation]

Crazy Rome was cursed by the gods

City of cripples and widows yeah.

People breathe in the toxic smoke here

Cut their veins open with blades

Here on holidays they go and watch

People suffer and writhe in agony

Ruthless death has its feast

On the floor of the screaming arena.

Power and strength bring you freedom

Win and you’ll become a star,

Or maybe

This will be your last hour.

Your rival’s down

Lying in dust

Cornered prey

Injured slave

Just one more second and you’ll get the sign (Kill!)

Thumb of the emperor

Do not resist

The holy fate!

Craving for blood

The crowd goes insane

The gladiator’s life

Is not worth

The sorrow of friends and wives

Colosseum

Like two dogs that fight for a bone

The condemned tear each other’s flesh apart.

There’s no anger or gamble in their eyes

There is nothing but pain.

You’re the only one still standing tall

God’s been saving you from the deadly blows

See Caesar come down on the sand

To grant you the freedom you’ve gained

Power and strength bring you freedom

Win and you’ll become a star,

Or maybe

This will be your last hour.

Your rival’s down

Lying in dust

Cornered prey

Injured slave

Just one more second and you’ll get the sign (Kill!)

Thumb of the emperor

Do not resist

The holy fate

Craving for blood

The crowd goes insane

The gladiator’s life

Is not worth

The sorrow of friends and wives

Colosseum

Remember

Do you remember

Being a leader, wise and proud

Remember

Do you remember

When the soldiers entered your house

Your days dawned

Among the scorched rocks

Time went by and now

It is revenge o’clock

Bread and circuses for people

Always there!

Power and strength bring you freedom

Go ahead!

Your rival’s down

Lying in dust

Cornered prey,

Injured slave

The gladiator’s sword struck out sparks

Out of the grey rocks

Do not resist

The holy fate!

Craving for blood

The crowd goes insane

The emperor’s life

Is not worth

The sorrow of friends and wives

Colosseum
