Lord of Light Lyrics

[Intro]
There are secrets that you keep
There are secrets that you keep
There are secrets that you tell to me alone
I can't reach things I can't see
You don't see this strange world quite the same as me
Don't deny me what I am
Nothing hidden, still you fail to see the truth
These are things you can't reveal
These are things you can't reveal

[Verse 1]
We are part of some strange plan
Why the slaughter of the brotherhood of man?
Infernal sacrifice of Hell
Fire breathing, lead the way
Mounds of bodies, as they all burn into one
Revenge is living in the past
Time to look into a new millennium

[Verse 2]
Spiral path leads through the maze
Down into the fiery underworld below
Fire breathing, lead the way
Lucifer was just an Angel led astray

[Chorus]
Free your soul and let it fly
Give your life to the Lord of Light
Keep your secrets and rain on me
All I see are mysteries
Free your soul and let it fly
Give your life to the Lord of Light
Keep your secrets and rain on me
All I see are mysteries

[Bridge 1]
We are not worthy in your black and blazing eyes
We gather demons in the mirror every day
The bridge of darkness casts a shadow on us all
And all our sins, to you, we give, this day
Others wait their turn, their lives were meant to last
Use yours wisely, as the light is fading fast
Free your soul and let it fly
Mine was caught, I couldn't try
Time returns again to punish all of us

[Bridge 2]
We are cast out by our bloody Father's hand
We are strangers in this lonely promised land
We are the shadows of the one unholy ghost
In our nightmare world, the only one we trust

[Solo]

[Chorus]
Free your soul and let it fly
Give your life to the Lord of Light
Keep your secrets and rain on me
All I see are mysteries
Free your soul and let it fly
Give your life to the Lord of Light
Keep your secrets and rain on me
All I see are mysteries
