Lyrics

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 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 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 Long Beach Arena, scream for me 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 waste And in my last hour I'm a slave to the power of death Now I am cold but a ghost lives in my veins Silent the terror that reigned, marbled in stone A shell of a man God preserved for a 1000 ages But open the gates of my hell I will strike from the grave Long Beach Arena, scream for me 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 waste And in my last hour I'm a slave to the power of... To the power of death Slave to the power of death
