The huge metal letters loom high and dark above the gothic gate like a sinister crown.
She gives an insane shriek.
Racism must never be allowed to wrap its barbed wire of hatred around humanity again.
Arbeit Macht Frei, work sets you free.

She gives an insane shriek.
The immense portals of the gate open.
Arbeit Macht Frei, work sets you free.
Next minute they will be shot.

The immense portals of the gate open.
The noise is like a roaring tidal wave hurling back and forth.
Next minute they will be shot.
A blank, senseless stare emerges on the thousand faces.
