Nailed To The Wheel Lyrics - Edguy

[Music: Sammet & Ludwig / Lyrics: Sammet] 

Good intentions pave the way of the human child 

Heading for the fork as you walk the path of life 

A spell cast from the hiding woods, don't you close your eyes 

The snake is waiting anytime to penetrate your mind 

Don't you hear voices whispering, incline to walk down 

Don't you see the shadow on the wall, angel eyes... the one cast out to fall 

Calling me to look up to the sky we follow but we never know oh why 

A vision revealing a child down where I've sure never been 

An angel who's touching the flame, oh the angel is me 

Nailed, nailed to the wheel - Nailed, let the cut run deep 

Nailed, nailed to the wheel - Nailed, I said go - let bleed! - Go, - let bleed! 

[solo: Jens] 

Feel it crawl, feel the magic coming over like a daze 

Welcome as the poison for the cornered snake 

Taste of sin, bitter sweet, never, never let us go 

But never, never, never is a price we'd pay to grow 

They call it original sin, some call it divine 

The moment the evil appeared... the chance to decide 

[repeat chorus] 

From children in cradles to hangmen who smile 

Lick up the blood from the blade of your knife 

Walk the stairway, leading down, ride on fire, take the crown 

Your mind could be strong but your flesh will be mine 

He's offering those kingdoms, they all could be thine 

Rising powers, tempting gold, but at what price would it be sold? 

It's all up to you... 

[solo: Jens] 

[repeat chorus]
