(Bruce Dickinson)



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 To 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-maarbled In Stone

Shell Of A Man God Preserved-a Thousand Ages

But Open The Gates Of My Hell-I Will Strike From The Grave.



CHORUS
