Inmate 4859

The dawn of century, a boy born by a lake

Resettled from Karelia's plains

Grown to a man in exile as the great war came

Unleashed the shadow on his world

Whoa, no

Whoa, no

Who knows his name?

Inmate in Hell or a hero imprisoned?

Soldier in Auschwitz, who knows his name?

Locked in a cell, waging war from the prison

Hiding in Auschwitz, who hides behind 4859?

Outside help never came, decided to break free

The end of April '43

Join the uprising, fight on the streets while hidin' his rank

Takes command all while serving his country in need

Whoa, no

Whoa, no

Who knows his name?

Inmate in Hell or a hero imprisoned?

Soldier in Auschwitz, who knows his name?

Locked in a cell, waging war from the prison

Hiding in Auschwitz, who hides behind 4859?

Sent to a prison, where the heroes are judged as traitors

Accused of treason by his own

Sentenced by countrymen

Under pressure of foreign influence

Men he once fought to free

Inmate in Hell or a hero imprisoned?

Soldier in Auschwitz, we know his name

Locked in a cell, waging war from the prison

Hiding in Auschwitz, he hides behind 4859
