Revelations Lyrics - Piece Of Mind - Iron Maiden

O God of Earth and Altar 

Bow down and hear our cry 

Our earthly rulers falter 

Our people drift and die 

The walls of gold entomb us 

The swords of scorn divide 

Take not thy thunder from us 

But take away our pride. 

Just a babe in a black abyss 

No reason for a place like this. 

The walls are cold and souls cry out in pain. 

An easy way for the blind to go 

A clever path for the fools who know. 

The Secret of the Hangman

The smile on his lips. 

The light of the Blind 

You'll see 

The venom that tears my spine 

The Eyes of the Nile are opening 

You'll see. 

She came to me with a serpents kiss 

As the Eye of the Sun rose on her lips. 

Moonlight catches silver tears I cry. 

So we lay in a black embrace 

And the Seed is sown in a holy place 

And I watched and I waited for the Dawn. 

The light of the Blind 

You'll see 

The venom that tears my spine 

The Eyes of the Nile are opening 

Photos 

You'll see. 

Bind us all together 

Ablaze with Hope and Free. 

No storm or heavy weather 

Will rock the boat you'll see. 

The time has come to close your eyes 

And still the wind and rain. 

For the one who will be King 

Is the watcher in the Ring. 

It is You.
