[Verse 1]
He saw the world
Dim with the glow of the vertical sun
His skin crept cold
Knowing that this was the hours of dying
[Pre-Chorus]
Misguided mortals, you'll burn with me
Spirit of man cannot be freed
[Chorus]
(When death calls) This is the hours of dying
(When death calls) The spirit of man can't be freed
(When death calls) Oh, there's no tomorrow
(When death calls) Oh, just an evil shadow
Oh, oh
[Verse 2]
Tell me not
Fear of the flames means that Heaven is closer
For I believe
Satan lives in the souls of the dying
[Pre-Chorus]
Misguided mortals, you'll burn with me
Spirit of man cannot be freed
[Chorus]
(When death calls) Oh, Heaven is closer
(When death calls) Feel the heat of the flames from the souls of the dying
(When death calls) Here it comes, here it comes, here it comes
(When death calls) You're gonna burn
[Instrumental]
[Bridge]
Don't look in those sunken eyes
Don't look and you'll stay alive
Don't laugh in the face of death
Or your tongue will blister
Can't die until Satan says, "You die"
And Satan takes your soul
In the face of death
Or your tongue will blister
[Guitar Solo: Brian May]
[Bridge]
Don't look in those sunken eyes
Don't look and you'll stay alive
Don't laugh in the face of death
Or your tongue will blister
Can't die till Satan says, "You die"
The Devil takes your soul
With all his wrath
He calls the Reaper
[Chorus]
(When death calls) This is the hours of dying
(When death calls) The spirit of man can't be freed
(When death calls) Oh, there's no tomorrow
(When death calls) Just an evil, an evil shadow
(When death calls) Feel the heat of the flames from the souls of the dying
(When death calls) You're gonna burn, burn, burn, oh no
(When death calls) Heaven is closer
(When death calls) I can feel it, it's gonna take you down
(When death calls) Can hear it calling you?
(When death calls) Tell me, tell me, ahh, won't you say it?
(When death calls) It's gonna take you down
