Blood Eagle Wings (40th Anniversary Version)

[Verse 1]

Everything's been said, walk among the dead

You can see my crimes, this is my design

There's no right or wrong, it's the same old song

Just keeps pounding me, hits so hard

[Pre-Chorus]

Hell is empty

'Cause all my demons are here

Ever so deadly

Hit so hard

[Chorus]

Darkness in my soul is taking hold and becoming

Break me from this hold as I unfold blood eagle wings

Darkness in my soul is taking hold and becoming

Break me from this hold as I unfold blood eagle wings

[Verse 2]

My whole world built on bodies dead and gone

You ignored the signs, this is my design

And the loneliness hits so hard in this

Grey placе that exists in my mind

[Pre-Chorus]

Hell is empty

'Causе all my demons are here

Ever so deadly

Hit so hard

[Chorus]

Darkness in my soul is taking hold and becoming

Break me from this hold as I unfold blood eagle wings

Darkness in my soul is taking hold and becoming

Break me from this hold as I unfold blood eagle wings

[Bridge]

I ask you

Why, why fight everything?

Why can't you accept it?

You can never stop it

And I don't want to try

A weak half measured lie

I'd rather see it die

I'd rather see it die

I showed you

Why, why fight everything?

Not what you expected?

Your dystopian epic

Of memories are a lie

I don't have to try

Unfold your wings and fly

I'd rather see it die

I'd rather see it die

[Refrain]

I showed you

Why, why fight everything?

Not what you expected?

Your dystopian epic

Of memories are a lie

I don't have to try

Unfold your wings and fly

I'd rather see it die

I'd rather see it die

[Chorus]

Darkness in my soul is taking hold and becoming

Break me from this hold as I unfold blood eagle wings

Darkness in my soul is taking hold and becoming

Break me from this hold as I unfold blood eagle wings

[Post-Chorus]

I ask you

I show you

[Outro]

Darkness in my soul is taking hold and becoming

I ask you

Break me from this hold as I unfold blood eagle wings

I show you

Darkness in my soul is taking hold and becoming

I ask you

Break me from this hold as I unfold blood eagle wings
