Blue Oyster Cult Vengeance The Pact Lyrics

Vengeance The Pact Lyrics

See them standing in the foothills waiting for the kill

On wings of fear the terror sweeps into the city peace(?)



To defend, this is the pact

But when life's scorned and damage done

To avenge, this is the pact



On wings of vengeance (turnibuns) and left for the aliens (??)



To defend, this is the pact

But when life's scorned and damage done

To avenge, this is the pact



Flying over the oasis she is captured and that boy fell down



Feeling (deee)

>From the (left)

Close my eyes

And I am them

I feel I'm falling down in a deep dark pit



Put him down, the soldiers said

I'll put an arrow in his head

But the bird flew off instead

To save his master on his back she fled



Her time has come



Riding the bird, high in the saddle

She gets a chance to fulfill the pact now

As the leader swoops from the clouds

She sticks him with the sword, then she throws him down



The enemy killed, the land died

The enemy killed, the land died



To defend, this is the pact

But when life's scorned and damage done

To avenge, this is the pact
