The Number Of The Beast — текст песни (Iron Maiden)

I LEFT ALONE MY MIND WAS BLANK
I NEEDED TIME TO GET THE MEMORIES FROM MY MIND

WHAT DID I SEE CAN I BELIEVE THAT WHAT I SAW
THAT NIGHT WAS REAL AND NOT JUST FANTASY

JUST WHAT I SAW IN MY OLD DREAMS WERE THEY
REFLECTIONS OF MY WARPED MIND STARING BACK AT ME

COS IN MY DREAMS IT`S ALWAYS THERE THE EVIL FACE THAT TWISTS
MY MIND AND BRINGS ME TO DESPAIR

THE NIGHT WAS BLACK WAS NO USE HOLDING BACK
COS I JUST HAD TO SEE WAS SOMEONE WATCHING ME
IN THE MIST DARK FIGURES MOVE AND TWIST
WAS THIS ALL FOR REAL OR SOME KIND OF HELL

666 THE NUMBER OF THE BEAST
HELL NAD FIRE WAS SPAWNES TO BE RELEASED

TORCHES BLAZED AND SACRED CHANTS WERE PRAISED
AS THEY START TO CRY HAND HEID TO THE SKY
IN THE NIGHT THE FIRES BURNING BRIGHT
THE RITUAL HAS BEGUND SATAN`S WORK IS DONE

666 THE NUMBER OF THE BEAST
SACRIFICE IS GOING ON TONIGHT

THIS CAN`T GO ON I MUST INFORM THE LAW
CAN THIS STILL BE REAL OR SOME CRAZY DREAM
BUR I FEEL DRAWN TOWARDS THE EVIL CHANTING HORDES
THEY SEEM TO MESMERISE ME ... CAN`T AVOID THEIR EYES

666 THE NUMBER OF THE BEAST
666 THE ONE FOR YOU YOU AND ME

I`M COMING BACK I WILL RETURN
AND I`LL POSSESS YOUR BODY AND I`LL MAKE YOU BURN
I HAVE THE FIRE I HAVE THE FORCE
I HAVE THE POWER TO MAKE MY EVIL TAKE IT`S COURSE
