Blood Eagle Wings (40th Anniversary Version)

[Verse 1]
Everything's been said, walk among the dead
You can see my crimes, this is my design
There's no right or wrong, it's the same old song
Just keeps pounding me, hits so hard

[Pre-Chorus]
Hell is empty
'Cause all my demons are here
Ever so deadly
Hit so hard

[Chorus]
Darkness in my soul is taking hold and becoming
Break me from this hold as I unfold blood eagle wings
Darkness in my soul is taking hold and becoming
Break me from this hold as I unfold blood eagle wings

[Verse 2]
My whole world built on bodies dead and gone
You ignored the signs, this is my design
And the loneliness hits so hard in this
Grey placе that exists in my mind

[Pre-Chorus]
Hell is empty
'Causе all my demons are here
Ever so deadly
Hit so hard

[Chorus]
Darkness in my soul is taking hold and becoming
Break me from this hold as I unfold blood eagle wings
Darkness in my soul is taking hold and becoming
Break me from this hold as I unfold blood eagle wings

[Bridge]
I ask you
Why, why fight everything?
Why can't you accept it?
You can never stop it
And I don't want to try
A weak half measured lie
I'd rather see it die
I'd rather see it die
I showed you
Why, why fight everything?
Not what you expected?
Your dystopian epic
Of memories are a lie
I don't have to try
Unfold your wings and fly
I'd rather see it die
I'd rather see it die

[Refrain]
I showed you
Why, why fight everything?
Not what you expected?
Your dystopian epic
Of memories are a lie
I don't have to try
Unfold your wings and fly
I'd rather see it die
I'd rather see it die

[Chorus]
Darkness in my soul is taking hold and becoming
Break me from this hold as I unfold blood eagle wings
Darkness in my soul is taking hold and becoming
Break me from this hold as I unfold blood eagle wings

[Post-Chorus]
I ask you
I show you

[Outro]
Darkness in my soul is taking hold and becoming
I ask you
Break me from this hold as I unfold blood eagle wings
I show you
Darkness in my soul is taking hold and becoming
I ask you
Break me from this hold as I unfold blood eagle wings
