Iced Earth Damien Lyrics

Damien Lyrics

So the beast resides in me
Deep down I always knew
I never really did fit
in
So diverse from all of you
Let him who comprehends
Know the number
of the beast
It's a number of a man
A number just for me

As the
boy becomes a man
Father's minions pave the way
Set in motion now,
Armageddon,
Final conflict, end of days

I embrace the hounds of
hell
And the power they oblige
For the task that lies ahead
The
Nazarene I'll crucify
They'll see the raptures of our kingdom
They'll see
the truth to mankind
I'll show what hell truly is
The monotony of their
lives

(Chorus)
When the Jews return to Zion
And a comet fills the
sky
The Holy Roman Empire rises
And you and I must die
From the
eternal sea he rises
Creating armies on either shore
Turning man against
his brother
Till man exists no more

(Bridge)
Now Disciples of the
Watch
See your Prince of Darkness rise
Through famine and
destruction
The Four Horsemen at my side
I demand a victory, I demand a
sacrifice
Or spend all eternity
In the flaccid gut of Christ!
