Iron Maiden - Powerslave Lyrics
(bruce dickinson)Into the abyss Ill fall-the eye of horusInto the eyes of the night-watching me goGreen is the cats eye that glows-in this templeEnter the risen osiris-risen again.ChorusTell me why I had to be a powerslaveI dont wanna die, Im a god, why cant I live on?When the life giver dies, all around is laid to waste.And in my last hour,Im a slave to the power of death.When I was living this lie-fear was my gamePeople would worship and fall-drop to their kneesSo bring me the blood and red wine for the one to succeed meFor he is a man and a god-and he will die too.ChorusNow I am cold but a ghost lives in my veins,Silent the terror that reigned-maarbled in stoneShell of a man God preserved-a thousand agesBut open the gates of my hell-i will strike from the grave.Chorus
