The Volcano -
is a hard and dramatic rock song. A volcano, located next to a big city, is silent since centuries. But one night, when everybody sleeps, the volcano erupts and destroys the city completely. The people fight for their survival and die. Although their struggle is filmed from the distance and broadcasted around the world and despite all their pleading, nobody can help them because everything happens so quickly. At the end, the bewailing voices of the dead ask the world: "Why did you leave us alone?"

The Volcano was silent for many centuries.
The daily fun and sorrows, the people lived in peace.
But in the middle of the night when everybody was asleep,
all things changed in a second: The volcano, he began to speak!
The earth was hot as fire. The people couldn't breathe.
The awful cries of children: "Oh daddy, mom, don't leave!"
There was no social action, everyone fought for himself
in search for pure survival, no ears for cries for help.
And up there in safe distance the agonies were filmed
from television helis and sent around the world.
All candle-lights extinguished and the moon was shining bright,
illuminated dead bodies of daughters, fathers, sons and wives.
It's been raining burning stones and the ground it shook like hell.
Collapsing buildings were the grave for people everywhere.
No one could help when the mega-city died.
The world watched on the tele a million people's fight.
"Please, please, please, please, come and help us!
Please, please, please, please, come and help!"
"Why did you leave us, why did you leave us
why did you leave us, why did you leave us alone?"
