Powerslave

"Powerslave" Lyrics by Iron Maiden

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.

[Chorus:]

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.

[Chorus:]

Now I am cold but a ghost lives in my veins,

Silent the terror that reigned –

Marbled in stone

A Shell of a man God preserved –

For thousand ages,

But open the gates of my hell –

I’ll strike from the grave

[Chorus:]

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…
