Number of the beast – Iron Maiden
I
lived alone, my mind was blank
I needed time to think to get the
memories from my mind
What did I see, could I believe
That
what I saw that night was real and not just fantasy
Just what I
saw, in my old dreams
Were
they reflections of my warped mind staring back at me
’Cause
in my dreams, it's always there
The evil face that twists my mind and brings me to despair
Yeeeaaaaaaahhhhh
Night
was black, was no use holding back
'Cause I just had to see, was
someone watching me
In the mist, dark figures move and twist
Was
all this for real, or just some kind of hell
6, 6, 6, the number
of the beast
Hell, and fire, was spawned to be released
Torches
blazed and sacred chants were praised
As they start to cry, hands
held to the sky
In the night, the fires are burning bright
The
ritual has begun, satan’s work is done
6, 6, 6, the number
of the beast
Sacrifice is going on tonight
(guitar)
This
can't go on, I must inform the lord
Can this still be real, or
just some crazy dream
But I feel drawn, towards the chanting
hordes
Seem to mesmerise, can't avoid their eyes
6, 6, 6, the
number of the beast
6, 6, 6, the one for you and me
I'm
coming back, I will return
And I'll possess your body and I'll
make you burn
I'll have the fire, I'll have the force
I'll have
the power to make my evil take its course
