Traitors Gate Lyrics - Judas Priest

The river shows no mercy 

The tower looms into my view 

I sense my execution's closing 

With darkness all around me 

The axe is ground to end my days 

The raven's cry proclaims repentance 

Out of the dark 

Into the light 

Leaving my mark 

Free from the traitors gate 

Into the storm 

I'm gonna win 

Killer of sin 

Saved by the traitors gate

A man betrayed for treason 

I only wanted what was right 

To bring a purpose by rebellion 

The storm is soon arriving 

And rain will wash away my blood 

This walk of death will bring survival 

Out of the dark 

Into the light 

Leaving my mark 

Free from the traitors gate 

Ready to die 

Carry the day 

Bury the lie 

Tear down the traitors gate 

Forgive me for my sins 

I meant no harm to you 

So let the axe man fall 

To justify what I begin 

Photos 

Where will you be tomorrow 

Now they've removed this mortal coil 

I hope and pray I bring you freedom 

For honour God and country 

This world can be a better place 

As I ascend from my conviction 

Out of the dark 

Into the light 

Leaving my mark 

Free from the traitors gate 

River of blood 

Turning the tide 

Cause of the flood 

Destroying the traitors gate 

Out of the dark 

Into the light 

Leaving my mark 

Free from the traitors gate 

Losing my head 

Blunt of the axe 

Alive when I'm dead 

Escape from the traitors gate
