The Book Of Souls Lyrics - The Book Of Souls - Iron Maiden

Sacrifices buried with kings 

Accompany them on a journey with no end 

To an afterlife that's rich with fruit of all the gods 

And to face the demons 

Of their underworld haunts 

The sentient is sent to seek out all the truth 

A flight to earth that is a given from his birth 

To rise from ashes of the dead 

Out of the fire is sent to fulfil man's desire 

By power day and night and death he ruled them 

The sky and earth and the fires too 

Two headed reptile symbol of his reign 

Universes of the underworld

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

A life that's full of all the wealth and riches 

Can never last for an eternity 

After living in a golden paradise 

The ultimate sacrifice 

Prophecy of sky gods, the sun and moon 

Passing of old ways will come true soon 

Falling of ages, forest of kings 

The search for the truth, the book of souls 

The rulers of planets and stars 

The power of the kings of traders and the wars 

Planetary cycles and the phases of the moon 

Is in the document a kingdom they will learn 

They were praying to the gods of nature 

And were living in the cities of stone 

Towers reaching upward to the heavens 

Sacred wonders for the world unknown 

Photos 

Make their lives be a mystery no more 

Records kept and the passing of laws 

Sacred gods to the book of lies 

When a civilization dies 

Prophecy of sky gods 

The sun and moon 

Passing of old ways will come true soon 

Falling of ages 

Forest of kings 

The lost book of souls, destruction begins 

Ascending the throne wearing feathers and shells 

He brought back their lives from the void 

Alien invasion brings nothing but death 

Mass exodus and plant life destroyed 

Domain of the earth to the journey of truth 

The underworld caves mayan slaves 

Defeat of the dark lords 

The ultimate proof 

In the place where the ancestors rule 

The book of souls
