(Steve Harris, Dave Murray and Clive Burr)
|
Cold as steel the darkness waits its hour will come.
|
A cry of fear from our children worshipping the sun.
|
Mother natures' black revenge on those who wasted her life.
|
War babies in the garden of Eden,
|
Shall turn our ashes to ice.
|
|
Sunrise has gone, freezing up the fires.
|
Sunrise has gone, numbing our desires.
|
|
Around the world the people stop,
|
With terror stricken eyes.
|
A shadow cast upon them all,
|
To crush them like a fly.
|
In the icy rain and whiplashed seas,
|
There's nowhere left to run.
|
The hammer blows of winter fall like a hurricane.
|
|
Sunrise has gone, freezing up the fires.
|
Sunrise has gone, numbing our desires.
|
|
Around the world the nations wait,
|
For some wise word from their leading light.
|
You know it's not only madmen who listen to fools.
|
Is this the end, the millions cried,
|
Clutching their riches as they died.
|
Those who survive must weather the storm.
|
|
Gone are the days when man looked down.
|
They've taken away his sacred crown.
|
To be set free, it took so long.
|
It's not journey's end, it's just begun.
