Afterglow Of Ragnarok lyrics - Bruce Dickinson

I am your very soul
The one you do not know
I am the truth that's playing hide and seek
And I will not be free
I cannot choose to be
'Til my creator takes the chains off me

All is come to nothing
All will burn in hell
Now the bridge has broken
All is come undone

I cross the shining seas
Eyes of creatures follow me
Moonlight guides us on a steady course
Afterglow of Ragnarok
Becomes the shadow of the dawn
From the night the sun will rise again
Again

For me, there's no escape
No opening of the gate
Incarnate freedom just a hopeless dream
I read your silent mind
I feel your hate refined
And the burning will begin in the circle of lust

All has come to nothing
Saved but you can't run
Now the bridge has broken
All is come undone

I cross the shining seas
Eyes of creatures follow me
Moonlight guides us on a steady course
Afterglow of Ragnarok
Becomes the shadow of the dawn
From the night the sun will rise again
Again

All has come to nothing
The world is only dust
Now the bridge is broken
There's a fire in the ice

All is come to nothing
All is burned in hell
Now the bridge is broken

I cross the shining seas
Eyes of creatures follow me
Moonlight guides us on a steady course
Afterglow of Ragnarok
Becomes the shadow of the dawn
From the night the sun will rise again
Again

Afterglow
Afterglow of Ragnarok

Many Doors To Hell lyrics - Bruce Dickinson

All things of love and beauty lost in clouds of fiery dust
Beneath the blood-red sky, the shifting sands will cover us
We drink the cup of secrets, dreaming of the afterlife
The sun begins its journey, taking us from day to night

So where was God when I needed Him most?
What salvation is the Holy Ghost?
For what I've done, you can't blame me
I've lived across the centuries

When the sun goes down
I wear my thorned crown
I know them all so well
So many opening doors to hell

I drink the cup of starlight, dreaming of the day to come
My fingers turn the pages of the Book of Life that's yet to come
My blood is thin, my body ache
To lie on Earth is still my fate
Eclipse will come to set me free
And for that moment, I can't wait

Telling you now I will come again
With the knowledge from my secret room
Show me treasure with humankind
Drink of me, lose your mind

When the sun goes down
I wear my thorned crown
I know them all so well
The many opening doors to hell
I made the earth unbound
Tears of desolation felt
Believe the tales I tell
The many opening doors to hell

Our life will leave us with wounds
So we must
Human deceivers of your soul
Retrievers

When the sun goes down
I wear my thorned crown
I know the world so well
The many opening doors to hell
I made the earth unbound
Tears of desolation found
Believe the tales I tell
The many opening doors to hell

The many opening doors to hell
The many opening doors to hell

Rain On The Graves lyrics - Bruce Dickinson

In a country churchyard
I came across a man
He smiled and slowly beckoned me
With a trembling hand
Did you come to gamble
Or did you come to pray
What's the meaning of your business here
On a stormy day
The raindrops spattered on the tomb
From grey and leaden skies
Deny me once, deny me twice
But don't look in my eyes

There is rain on the graves
There is rain on the graves
There is rain on the graves
It's just rain, rain, rain
There is rain on the graves
But you came to be saved
There is rain on the graves
Let it wash your soul of dying

Faithless, he denied the truth
That he had come to steal
To kneel before the poet
Not the altar or the priest
He's washed himself in misery
Before he came to pray
He'd hoped in his false penitence
Some sympathy he'd sway

There is rain on the graves
There is rain on the graves
There is rain on the graves
It's just rain, rain, rain
There is rain on the graves
But you came to be saved
There is rain on the graves
It's just rain, rain, rain

I am the God of sinners
You are what I have made
You're talking to your likeness
And my shadow is your shade
Stand up and face the mirror
It's the image that you crave
But I'll be here when you're long gone
I'll see you in that grave
Ha, ha, ha

There is rain on the graves
There is rain on the graves
There is rain on the graves
It's just rain, rain, rain
There is rain on the graves
Rain on the graves
There is rain on the graves
Rain, rain, rain, rain
Rain on the graves
Ha, ha, ha
