Black Blade Lyrics - Blue Oyster Cult

I have this feeling that my luck is none too good 

This sword here at my side don't act the way it should 

Keeps calling me its master, but I feel like it's slave 

Hauling me faster and faster to an early, early grave 

And it howls, it howls like hell 

I'm told it's my duty to fight against the law 

That wizardry's my trade and I was born to wade through gore 

I just want to be a lover, not a red-eyed screaming ghoul 

I wish it'd picked another to be its killing tool 

Black Blade, Black Blade 

Forged a billion years ago 

Black Blade, Black Blade 

Killing so its power can grow, grow, grow 

It's death from the beginning to the end of time 

And I'm the cosmic champion and I hold a mystic sign 

And the whole world's dying and the burden's mine 

And the black sword keeps on killing 'till the end of time 

Black Blade, Black Blade 

Bringing chaos to the world we know 

Black Blade, Black Blade 

And it's using me to kill my friends 

Black Blade, Black Blade 

Getting stronger so the world will end 

Black Blade, Black Blade 

Forcing my mind to bend and bend 

I am the Black Blade 

Forged a million billion years ago 

My cosmic soul it goes on for eternity 

Carving out destiny 

Bringing in the Lords of Chaos 

Bringing up the Beasts of the Hades 

Sucking out the souls of the heroes 

Laying waste to knights and ladies 

My master is my slave 

You poor ugly humans
