Powerslave Lyrics - Powerslave - 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 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. 

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- 

For 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...
