Powerslave
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.
Chorus:
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 fall -
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.
Chorus:
Now I am cold but a ghost lives in my veins,
Silent the terror that reigned -
maarbled in stone .
A shell of a man God preserved -
a thousand ages,
But open the gates of my Hell -
I will strike from the grave.
Chorus:
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.
Slave to the Power of Death...
Slave to the Power of Death...
