You can sail in the desert
With a ship of fools
You can smuggle in moses
And his book of rules
But you can't take mother
And give her back her son
Hey what kind of freedom
Is bought with a gun...

LAUGHING IN THE HIDING BUSH

When shall we three meet again?
In thunder, lightning, or in rain?
When the hurly-burly's done?
When the battle's lost, not won?

A tyranny of souls, that love has lost
A tyranny of souls, a pentecost
Speak in tongues of fire

I wake in sweat you've come to steal my life away
Some strange electric glow of artifical day
The power breakers close, the grid of darkness falls
Shining gleaming black as night, burning all the light

What do you want from me?
I sense your mastery...
There's something you won't ever find

Journey back to the dark side, back into the womb
Back to where the spirits move like vapor from the tomb
The center of the cyclone, blowing out the sun
Break the shackles of your union to the light

I might have had a brother,
as I was born they dragged him under
To the other side of twilight he's

We live and die like all the rest
Every summer has its sunset every year
Love and hope put to the test
Every grain of comfort holds the seed of fear

And I loved you long ago
And I love you still
But the roads that we have travelled took us far apart

Well billy rapped all night about his suicide
Said he'd kick it in the head when he was 25
Speed jive, don't want to stay alive when you're 25
And wendy's stealing clothes from marks and sparks
And freddie's got spots from ripping off the stars from his face
Funky little boat race

The television man is crazy, saying we're juvenile delinquent wrecks

We live and die like all the rest
Every summer has its sunset every year
Love and hope put to the test
Every grain of comfort holds the seed of fear

And I loved you long ago
And I love you still
But the roads that we have travelled

There, on a lonely desert hilltop
The pilgrims huddle closer
Waiting for a sign, the coming silver shrine
The arc of space and time

Truth, oh, the truth is never clear
Perhaps again next year
The hope lives on beneath the blazing sun

Before I met my baby, there was a whole lot going on
Yea, before I met my baby, there was a whole lot going on
I used to wag my tail in every corner
never hesitate to give that bitch a bone

Before I met my baby didn't have a clue
Before I met my baby I didn't know what I should do
Before I met my baby this misguided mutt made dogmeat out of you

The mark is on you now
The furnace sealed inside your head
Melting from the inside now
Waxy tears run down your face

The whore that never told her tale
Relives it every night with you
Far off stands the lamb and waits

Born in a mining town in '58
When black and white t.v. was up to date
And men were still around
Who fought for freedom - stood their ground and died
That I could be alive
And see the damage that we've managed since
In this sceptred isle
Is nothing sacred - just the one square mile?

Here I sit,
Alone at the window
The rain
Falls down
On the glass In the cold
All my life
I've been waiting
For a moment

[Bruce Dickinson / Roy Z.]

How happy is the human soul
Not enslaved by dull control
Left to dream and roam and play
Shed the guilt of former days

Walking on the foggy shore

Story of one strange night in Japan
So, what do you think?

In the smoky haze, she was dancing free
Should've ordered one but I ordered three
Then I watched the room and it was dancing two
So, I ordered four and I hit the floor

We all have secret lives
In our secret rooms,
Living in our movies,
humming our own tunes
Living life in camera,
When the night is closing down,
Sliding into darkness,
You could be like me

Cold sunlight falling on me
Cold sunlight falling on me
I am a lonely man
Sorrow is my friend
Fall asleep as the dawn comes up
A ray of hope again

Hold the crystal vision for a second

The first hellrider came on wings a-plenty in the dark
Hauled out his poison and they blew away his mark
The fascist from the east is coming, mothers hide your sons

The second hellrider came from flaming seas and molten sands
Half is played in Hell's commands
Hauled out his poison with his promises of promised lands
Glad, good times of lying leaders

Delilah, Delilah, oh my, oh my, oh my - you're irresistible
You make me smile when I'm just about to cry
You bring me hope, you make me laugh - you like it
You get away with murder, so innocent
But when you throw a moody you're all claws and you bite -
That's alright!
Delilah, Delilah, oh my, oh my, oh my - you're unpredictable
You make me so very happy

Well, you bred me
Well, you fed me
Well, you made me what I am

Something for nothing
Good for nothing
Well...

At the edge of space the world is curved
Like a halo
See a blackbird flying now, see it now... through my window
And so the rocket man came down to land
From the unknown
On the ground he never found the truth...
Turned his eyes...
To the skies...

You knew I wouldn't go
that's why you threatened me... would I stay?
you crawled up on your knees
a victioms pretty please...
would I stay? would I stay?... and I stayed
how many more times, till I breakout
from that guilty mess
you taught me to hate to love you

Always let you down...
Always fooled around
Always stealing your own way
Life just seems too short
Life lived in the dirt
Kicked in the theet
Is what you meant to say

[Bruce Dickinson / Roy Z.]

As above, so below
All things come from the one
Now you are the victim
Carried by the wind, rooted in the ground

If you want to learn the secrets

Yeah, standing by the three kings
And I thought I saw a star
I could smell the holy spirit
It was coming from the bar

It's magic they said
Back from the dead
It's not Christmas yet

When I was younger I thought
That to kill or be killed
Was a thing to be proud of
Victim of change
Prisoner of hope,
hanged by the neck
On the end of a rope
I don't know... I don't care...

Living in the city can be a cold and lonely place to be
Living in the shadows where there is no sun there in no breeze
Drinking stale water, having to pay for the privilege
Talk about your freedom, I’ll take you where I think it is

Gypsy Road is the highway that I run to
Gypsy Road, welcome to your dreams
Gypsy Road is the highway that I run to

There's a secret that we all share
In the darkest hours of the night
You can swear on the bible...
Cut the thoat of your rival
I've been taking my life in my hand
And I'm making new plants yeah...
Now I'm starting my life on my own
In the virgin unknown...

Devil's driving down the track
Helens wheels they won't turn back
Engine racing down a one way street
Speeds chasing that red line heat
Into the blackness into the night
Out of the tunnel into the light
Red for danger that's just for show
Climb aboard come as you go

Aquí, en una iglesia, un niño esta hincado
Le reza a un dios sin conocerlo - no lo siente
Todo los pecados de su niñez siempre recuerda
No va llorar, no quiere llorar

Hombre Triste, tu rostro no te vi
Hombre Triste, sin ver fuiste de aquí
Pregunta el niño ¿qué fue lo que paso?

I will not accept the truth
I will not accept the truth
I will not accept the truth...

That I'll never get there
Never get there yeh yeah

I must not push forward, no

These are the pictures
These are the feelings from the front line
Living in silence
Feeling the deafness like heavy smoke
Smiling with strangers
Counting the days like a spring coiled up inside
Welcome to your future
Welcome to your book of lies

I've got myself a widget
A gizmo with wires
And martian intent yeah
Strange face of beauty
On my machine
It blinks and stares right at me
Sees nothing but in its wires
A strange thing of beauty

(based on a poem by William Blake)

And did those feet in ancient times
Walk upon England's mountains green
And was the holy lamb of god
On England's pleasant pastures seen

And did the countenance divine

Blood brothers of angels, now hear us
We earthbound your offspring, don't fear us
God willing will rise up be near you
So open your arms now and take us

So we beleaving our dreams like the Icarus of old
The plans we made for the bold and the blue wide beyond
Theres nowhere to hide, there's no going back now

So this is dreamtime, and all is quiet
So this is dreamtime, and all is night
You've never been held by the hand of god
Who's rocking the cradle, if he is not?

He turned the oil into his blood
Panzer divisions burning in in the mud
The stain of freedom – he's washed it out

In the darkness, the raven's head
In the courtyard clothed in fear
I see gates that are opening
There's only one way out of here

Daylight has come
The night has come

There's a sinister game the children play
Hey, hey, hey, hey
When they get to the end of each school day
Hey, hey, hey, hey

They spend their lives getting ready for the kill...
(aaah)

There's a sinister game
That children play...Hey...Hey
When they get to the end
Of each schoolday...Ha...Ha
They spand their lives
Getting ready for the kill...

Laughting in the hiding bush

(Eat lead, you scum sucking…)

Lickin' the gun, yeah, yeah

Lickin' the gun, lickin' the hand that feeds you
Lickin' the gun finger lickin' fun
Lickin' the gun, lickin' the hand that feeds you
Lickin' the gun finger lickin' fun

Bring the toys out for the boys
Let the children make their noise
See the monsters in their metal cages

Turn the lights down in your soul
Cut the power to your heart
See the carcass in its dying rages

Here In A Church A Small Boy In Kneeling
He Prays To A Good He Doesn't Know, He Cannot Feel
All Of His Sins Of Childhood He Will Remember
He Will Not Cry, Tears He Will Not Cry

Chorus:
Man Of Sorrows, I Won't See Your Face
Man Of Sorrows, You Left Without A Trace

Hey, you wait - cringing in the dark
You create what you always fear
A puppet of hatred, dishing out poison
You use me for bait (bait) - your begging bowl of lies
Chain letters of sniveling compromise

I can smell the difference
Your truth and your fiction

Distant earthrise long ago
lingers at the borders of our minds
mysteries spinning in the dark
in the frozen emptiness of time
we were lost and we never knew
who we were or what we left behind
living half-lives we were blind
to the new frontiers that opened up our eyes

No lies, no angels, no lies, no angels No lies, no angels, no lies, no angels No Heaven, no Heaven, no lies
No lies, no angels, no Heaven No lies, no angels, no Heaven
Waitin' on a corner of a red light street Where the dealers and the junkies and the graveyards meet By the light of a street light moon If you hang 'round here babe, you're leavin' soon
On the run from a country, from the law Well, here's a safe place behind every front door Wanna wander where the guide book doesn't go Watchin' the windows, part of the sideshow
No lies, no angels, no Heaven No lies, no angels, no Heaven
Where the money men's wallets bleed Where the fat cat sinners fill their needs Where the vicar goes for his sin Where the stick up artist gets stuck in
Oh, look around here it's no big deal For an ounce of pleasure or a five minute feel Riding side saddle on a rented machine Hang on loosely, part of the scene
No lies, no angels, no Heaven No lies, no angels, no Heaven No lies, no angels, no Heaven No lies, no angels, no Heaven

A silent sleeping vampire, arisen from its grave
As I lie still and quiet in the dark
The only sign of breathing, a flicker on my skin
The only sign of life, my beating heart
What does it take to open my eyes?
What does it take to register surprise?
What does it take to feel joy?
What does it take to feel pain?

I'm vacuum breathing and open-mouthed
As the red shift fills my eyes
Oh minister my promises as her shadow cuts the day away
I remember you when you walked into that room

Now dislocated jagged pieces
Are sliding into this broken mind
I'm swimming back against the river

(Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)

The ashes drift away, smoke of our confusion
We turn our frightened faces to each other, say goodbye
Waited for the sign, waited for the moment
Waited for the miracle to arrive
I guess they lied

Is this a citadel
is this a prison cell
Who sits at my right hand now
Who's watching me now
Who's made us live this way
When do i get my say
Automation turns us into
Human beings now

Say goodbye to earth's children on a sleigh ride to the moon
Blue and white in the distance, not sorry I'm leaving you

Now and then the earthrise fills my eyes
Now and then the darkside fills the sky
Turn around the starlight warms my skin
Even in the blackness there's a tune

How many lifetimes, how many beginnings
How many lovers, how many threats
How many religions to keep us all guessing
Give me a reason. Why? Hell is a reason. Why?

The real world, you've got to fight to see it through
The real world, it's like the cages in the zoo
The real world, is there a lifelong there to be?

You don’t know your jailer
Like you, he’s never been free
He looks just like you, doesn’t he?
He’s got no sense of his own reward

Who needs freedom anyway
When you’ve got your golden cage?
What I call isolation

Break the bread and drink the wine
Seize the challace suck the poison vine
There is frost in every sunbeam, water flows from the earth to sky
Looking down on every rose nothing moves the wheal of heaven turns
As our fingers leave there trace, we are gods and the world returns, up rise?.

Now we're lost you can’t desguise, the river of no return
Now its time you realise, the river of no return

Slowly bleeding, watch the vortex feeding
Like a swirling vulture on your face
Every hour the unseen rays devour
Your screaming eyes cry out but they are blind

Father, forgive me my sins
Give me the nails, Ill hammer them in

(woo, hey)

Mira, mira, mira, andale, andale, yeah-ow!

[spoken:]

With a sense of irony, everyone you see
Is chasing their illusions

I've been down
At the crazy house
I've been playing
With the cat and the mouse
I've been down
I've been down
I've seen the crazy people
Running around

Sound of merlins fired up and their spoiling for the fight
1000 bombers ready, it’s the target for tonight
Deeper into Germany but we all know the score
I know that I’m not coming back like those that did before

Now the flare gun fires and we get the go
Say goodbye to the earth below

Trapped inside a web of fiery gravity that fuels all our needs
Chaotic energy that sucks the life from H to He
All life withers in the sun – I deny what I have done
Spend my days and nights in roaring halls of crimson fire

Solar confinement
Solar confinement
Solar confinement

Holy was the preacher
Riding on his rig of steel in the rising sun
This was no grim reaper, but a man with a
Smile who took a pride in a job well done
Oh in a bloodred sunrise
He's preaching conversion, as you lay down and die
Die, die, die…

We ride the cosmic streams of time
We are the fools who came to trust
We blind the eyes of history
We tear ourselves down from your cross
Hope flies, we live again
Half-lives, now we are one

We're the Soul Intruders and the worwling void of night

Yes, yes, I'd launch into the rising sun
My living breath is measured, every step is done
Fare ye well, my friends, see you down the line
Yeah, yeah...

I don't belong to nation state or dying race
I leave my prejudice with you, my religion's in space
Have a little respect...

I've watched the open line, I'd swing the sun up in the sky
I threw down the screens and opened up the door
The sun came streaming in and it shone out through your eyes
As you laughed and threw your gospel on the floor, cry

Hey, spirit of joy
Oh, you make this fool feel so wise
Hey, spirit of joy

Spiraling, falling
A silver machine
From wings of freedom
Silent above

Eyelids were burning
Summer sun roasting
Tumbling chrome

Who stole your heartbeat in the night
The acolytes fearful in the flickering light

They hold a mirror, to catch the breath from
your mouth
But your breath was stolen, by the wind from
the south

Tattooed boys with expensive toys.
Living in a bubble of sin.
Money can buy you most of anything.
Fix your nose or the mess your in.
Front page news you can share your views.
With a population that wants to be like you.
Out on the strip. Out on the tiles.
Same old greed behind the PR smiles.

Оригинальный текст:

For too long now
There were secrets in my mind
For too long now
There were things
I should have said
In the darkness

Wash away the blackness with the silver rain
Don't turn away - don't turn away
Wash away the blackness with the silver rain
Don't turn away - don't try to hide...

Sulphurous and burning, spitting out the sun
The beginning of creation, of the golden one
A window to the west, a blazing star above

The breeding house, Unit 731, he was just a working man
And he worked with his hands on prisoners
He set a judgment on his fellow man
Secret science was his game, justified by war
His spawn lay in the freezer
The killers that bore his name

CHORUS:

In your hour of darkness be not afraid
As the moonlight shivers on your grave
Come back to find you here
Save you from the danger
Come back to lead you home
From the hooded stranger

Conjuring the ghost of Cain

I am the teacher, come to reach you,
take the old ways back to you,
you were lost, but I found you,
and it's your choice what to do,
I've learnt a few things as I travelled
through the years,
through the doors of evermore

Time travel
Voyage of the chosen few
Not yet, but maybe soon

In the post alternative Seattle fallout
Worms will fly and pigs will shout
Does a worm have a brain, well you'd better find out
Slice it in half and suck the offending part out

There are twelve commandments
There are twelve divisions
Twelve are the pagans who have mapped the sky

In the outer circle
To the inner sanctum
From the octave at the end of time

This is the maze of life
This is the maze of death
This is the matrix of eternity
The demon never sleeps
The demon never lies
He beats my heart and leaves no echo...

What heavy burden holds me back

You come on down to the pit
Come on down to where the vipers spit
I've been waiting for you down here

Cover your eyes with the velvet hands of darkness
Cover your eyes with the velvet hands of darkness

I don't even know your name

When you think that it's all over and you want your ragged mile
And the winds of change are blowing all around, all around
Stop and look, you're not the only one on the road out in the night
Take some time to find your brother, it does take time to get it right

Winds of change blow over us (X3)
Winds of change do not change us at all

She fixed me in the corner with that beautiful brown eye
She says, I'd like to meet you
I was so surprised
Well what can I do for you?
What can you do for me?
We made for the exit, had to wait and see
I hope I'm not wasting your precious time
I know you're not wasting mine
