PART ONE: THE VISION
|
|
The son of a shepherd, Abdul Alhazred
|
Travelling in the mountains, the mountains to the east
|
One night before him, there stood that giant rock
|
3 symbols carved in blood
|
|
He built a fire at its root
|
To protect him from the wolves...
|
|
The Mad Arab... He would understand
|
The Mad Arab... It was in his hands...
|
|
Later that same night, awoken by wolfen's cry
|
The Arab cold with fear, saw the rock began to rise... Rise
|
|
The son of a shepherd, Abdul Alhazred
|
Shivering he saw Them coming, the mountain's evil priests
|
Black robes came together, around the floating rock
|
3 symbols in the dark
|
|
They all started chanting ancient songs
|
It was prayer in unknown tongue...
|
|
The Mad Arab... He would understand
|
The Mad Arab... It was in his hands
|
|
Solos: S/D
|
|
Daggers held high to the sky
|
The chanting had turned to screams
|
From the pit where the rock had been
|
8 snake-like monsters came
|
And the priests burned in red And the priest had turned their heads
|
|
The blood running from their chests
|
Had the Arab scream in horror... Giving himself away
|
|
The Mad Arab... He would understand
|
The Mad Arab... It was in his hands
|
|
Run down that mountain side, oh but they had seen him
|
The priests had caught his scent
|
Running faster... They're chasing him
|
Can't go no faster... They're still behind
|
Aaaah NO!!! They're closing in...
