Powerslave
by
Iron Maiden
Into the Abyss I'll fall - the eye of Horus
Into the eyes of the night - watching me go
Green is the cat's eye that glows - in this Temple
Enter the risen Osiris - risen again.
Tell
me why I had to be a Powerslave
I
don't wanna die, I'm a God, why can't I live on?
When
the Life Giver dies, all around is laid to waste.
And
in my last hour, I'm a slave to the Power of Death.
When
I was living this lie - Fear was my game
People
would worship and fal l- drop to their knees.
So
bring me the blood and red wine for the one to succeed
me,
for
he is a man and a God - and He will die too.
Tell
me why I had to be a Powerslave
I
don't wanna die, I'm a God, why can't I live on?
When
the Life Giver dies, all around is laid to waste.
And
in my last hour, I'm a slave to the Power of Death.
Now
I am cold but a ghost lives in my veins,
Silent the terror that reigned - marbled in stone.
A shell of a man God preserved - a thousand ages,
But
open the gates of my Hell - I will strike from my grave.
Tell
me why I had to be a Powerslave
I
don't wanna die, I'm a God, why can't I live on?
When
the Life Giver dies, all around is laid waste.
And in my last hour, I'm a slave to the Power of Death,
Slave
to the Power of Death...
Slave
to the Power of Death...
