I have led the lamb into the slaughter Ice flowed through my veins I was my own worst enemy still hellish memories remain I have shown the serpent into the garden And wore the Mask of Cain Take a look in these eyes where the past evil lies And feel my pain Ooh the hell's hounds drawing near Ooh and my conscience isn't clear I'm the one who whispered the words to Judas I'm the hangman's noose Though I try to repent in a valiant attempt It's no use I'm the judge, the jury And the executioner Oh, the things I've seen With an eye for an eye, kill the man kill the past, kill the dream Ooh the hell's hounds drawing near Ooh and my conscience isn't clear I've been to hell and back And I can't justify believing the lie I slowly fade to black Learning to live and die I'm learning to fly Under the moonlit glow I just can't let it go Words spoke in vain, now fall like a silent tear As shades dance by candlelight in the dead of night And all of the things I yearn slowly disappear And now there's nothing here Riding the storm, heading for a fall I curse you all be damned Through the haze, the sword that cuts both ways A line is drawn in the sand Ironbound a will as cold as steel To conquer all and divide Striking with an iron fist of will I will not be denied On and on and on No quarter asked, no quarter given On and on and on Never forgotten or forgiven Thunders rise from the terror's eyes Scorched by a heart drenched in black No return, I will watch it burn Now there's no turning back On and on and on No quarter asked, no quarter given On and on and on The past can never be unwritten On and on and on No quarter asked, no quarter given On and on and on Never forgotten or forgiven I've been to hell and back I can't justify believing the lie I slowly fade to black Learning to live and die I've been to hell and back I can't justify believing the lie I slowly fade to black Learning to live and die I'm learning to fly
