Live After Death
Powerslave (Dickinson) 7:06
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 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.
Shell of a man God preserved -- a thousand ages,
But open the gates of my Hell -- I will strike from the 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.....
