歌词
[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
Scream for me, Trieste
Scream for me, Italia!
[Verse 3]
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
[Verse 4]
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
[Verse 5]
Scream for me, Trieste
Scream for me, Italia!
[Verse 6]
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
[Verse 7]
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 thousand ages
But open the gates of my Hell—I'll strike from the grave
[Verse 8]
Scream for me, Trieste
Italia! Scream for me, Italia!
[Verse 9]
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
Slave to the power of death
Slave to the power of death
