Judas Priest - Redeemer Of Souls Lyrics
Dragonaut
Welcome to my world of steel
Master of my domain
Cower as the pain's unsealed
Disasters where I'll reign
Father of Sin
I'll drag you all in
Bow down as I petrify
Fire in the sky
Paralysed with fear
You know you're gonna die
Dragonaut is near
Icon to the fall of man
Worshipped like a king
Fearless as I now condemn
Every living thing
Father of Sin
I'll drag you all in
Bow down as I petrify
Fire in the sky
Paralysed with fear
You know you're gonna die
Dragonaut is near
Father of Sin
I'll drag you all in
Bow down as I petrify
Relish the blaze
Left all in a daze
He came and consumed and let fly
Fire in the sky
Paralysed with fear
You know you're gonna die
Dragonaut is near
Fire in the sky
Paralysed with fear
You know you're gonna die
Dragonaut is near

Redeemer Of Souls
Time to settle the score
He's loaded to feel their remorse
Steadfast strong that's for sure
The deal of his life takes its course
No giving in
They don't understand
They get to give up and to meet his demands
Count down coming your way
He's the last to obey
Watch him seizing the day
Redeemer redeemer of souls
There's no holding him back
The ransom announces his deeds
He's not cutting you slack
Just taking what ever he needs
Diamonds for eyes
As he begins
On that two wheeler from hell on the wind
Now he's setting the tune
They know the stare down is soon
Vengeance comes at high noon
Redeemer redeemer of souls
On the skyline
The stranger draws near
Feel the heat and he's shaking with fear
On the skyline
The stranger draws near
Feel the heat and he's shaking with fear
Countdown coming your way
He's the last to obey
Watch him seizing the day
Redeemer redeemer of souls
Redeemer of souls
Redeemer of souls
Redeemer of souls
Redeemer redeemer of souls

Halls Of Valhalla
Fierce is the gale
From the north sea
We drink and rejoice from the chalice
Holding the course
Through long nights and days
The ice and the hail bear no malice
Tow the line
Keep it fine
Every man seeks this end
Valhalla - you are calling
Valhalla - you are calling me home
Valhalla - new day dawning
Valhalla - this is where I belong - I belong
We crash o'er the waves
Bite deep on the oars
Scouring the spray
On the storm's maul
Then lightning reveals
For what we all pray
By Odin in Asgard
It's land fall
Life from death
Combat rests
Heralds peace for the slain
Valhalla - you are calling
Valhalla - you are calling me home
Valhalla - new day dawning
Valhalla - this is where I belong - I belong
The storm in the night takes us there
On an unrelenting tide
As the wind drives us ashore
Halls of Valhalla
Tow the line
Keep it fine
Every man seeks this end
The halls of Valhalla are calling me home
The halls of Valhalla that's where we belong
Valhalla you are calling
Valhalla you are calling me home
Valhalla new day dawning
Valhalla this is where I belong

Sword Of Damocles
Will you take the dare if it ever was placed
There's danger to challenge the throne
Deceivers will rise and weave their web of stealth
Can you face them standing alone
When men lead by words that are false as they preach
Fatality waits in the wings
Surrounded by fools behind walls that are breached
Beware of the jester that sings
Stand tall rise up stay strong fighting your enemies
Truth will find it's reward
If you live and die by the sword
The whispers can't hide when the tongues are let loose
Then hiding the truth is absurd
A stab in the back or taste of the noose
Is when action speaks louder than words
Stand tall rise up stay strong fighting your enemies
Truth will find it's reward
If you live and die by the sword
Wield the spear of light
Guard it with your might
Sword of Damocles - sword of Damocles
Stand tall rise up stay strong fighting your enemies
Truth will find it's reward
If you live and die by the sword
His truth will find its reward
If you live and die by the sword

March Of The Damned
We're walking, the streets
We know where, we'll meet
Can't stop us
They don't know why
They try
Can't hurt us
We'll never die
We are on the march of the damned
Of the damned
March of the damned
We know what's, at stake
Won't take your, mistakes
Can't break us
We'll never fall
That's all
It's over, just watch us grow
We are on the march of the damned
Of the damned
March of the damned
We're walking the streets
We know where we'll meet
Can't stop us
They don't know why
They try
Can't hurt us
We'll never die
We are on the march of the damned
Of the damned
March of the damned

Down In Flames
My last days
We shall see
They are coming now
They're after me
They want blood
Yes it's true
Going quietly I just don't do
Going down in flames
Going down in a blaze of glory
Going down in flames
Going down in a blaze of glory
In my heart
I can say
I'll be ready for what comes my way
Don't be fooled
I can tell
Where I'm going to will serve me well
Going down in flames
Going down in a blaze of glory
Going down in flames
Going down in a blaze of glory
Leaving my mark on the world when I've gone
Spreading the word by the deeds that I've done
Going down in flames
Going down in a blaze of glory
Going down in flames
Going down in a blaze of glory

Hell and Back
I have roamed so far away
I have found there's no turning back
I have seen so many things
I have been to hell and back
Still in the land of the living
Rocking the home of the brave
Staying alive and still kicking
Ain't got no need to be saved
Out of the fire and into the black
We've been through it all
We've been to hell and back
When I was young life was savage
The leather gets scuffed as it's worn
Rolling along you get damaged
So you grab the bull by the horns
Out of the fire and into the black
We've been through it all
We've been to hell and back
Taking it up higher when you're under attack
We've been through it all
We've been to hell and back
We have roamed so far away
We have found there's no turning back
We have seen so many things
We have been to hell and back
Out of the fire and into the black
We've been through it all
We've been to hell and back
Taking it up higher when you're under attack
We've been through it all
We've been to hell and back
We've all been under attack
We've all been to hell and back

Cold Blooded
I have no face
I have no mind
I have no senses left
You see I'm blind
I feel no faith
I hear no truth
The reasonings I have
Have all come loose
There is no way
I have no voice
I have no say
I have no choice
I feel no pain or sympathy
It's just cold blood
That runs through me
I lie hear numb
My conscience clear
And all the decency
Tranfused to fear
I feel no faith
I hear no truth
The reasonings I have
Have all come loose
There is no way
I have no voice
I have no say
I have no choice
I feel no pain or sympathy
It's just cold blood
That runs through me
You took my life and all I live for
I'm left for dead
Cold blooded and in hell
There is no way
I have no voice
I have no say
I have no choice
I feel no pain or sympathy
It's just cold blood that runs through me

Metalizer
Thrusting from a grave of unholy earth
Giving all his worth
Let the damned be saved
All that evil sin buried underground
Feeling safe and sound in his deadly skin
Heard the cry of pain so he's wide awake
No for heavens sake
He's become insane
How we feared the worst of a world gone mad
Never been so bad with a curse of
His immortal soul at stake
Hear the storm clouds break
He will find you
Goes for your throat
Mesmerize you
He is the metalizer
Withe a clash of steel as the war begins
All he does is grin
At the pain he feels
Fixing for a war of a hundred years
With with no sense of fear tooth and nail will
Claw at flesh and bone to prevail
His honor will not fail
He will find you
Goes for your throat
Mesmerize you
He is the metalizer
In this war that you can't win
You will die or live
He has ruled for a thousand years
He can't ever forgive
Fire and brimstone fill the earth and sky
Still he will defy
He will find you
Goes for your throat
Mesmerize you
He is the metalizer
He will find you
Goes for your throat
Mesmerize you
He is the metalizer
Metalizer, metalizer
Metalizer, metalizer

Crossfire
Watch your own reflection
Read between the lines
Lost in this confusion
It's a sign of the times
Caught in the crossfire
You gotta let go
Caught in the crossfire
You gotta let go
Opium for the masses
World's gone deaf and dumb
Victims of insanity
Ruled by the gun
Caught in the crossfire
You gotta let go
Caught in the crossfire
You gotta let go
Too much information
Messes with your mind
Pushing back the enemy
Blind leads the blind
World of smoking mirrors
Leaves you in a daze
Find your own solution
Out of the maze
Searing on the bible
Hypocrites and fools
Losing your religion
Breaking all the rules
Caught in the crossfire
You gotta let go
Caught in the crossfire
You gotta let go

Secrets Of The Dead
The shifting sands conceal the truth
Revealing only lies
A crescent moon casts ghostly shapes
As somewhere some thing flies
We let ourselves be bled
Secrets of the dead
Deserted by the ghosts that knew
Man's triumphs had no bounds
Left starving by our own mistakes
The sands reclaimed their ground
We let ourselves be bled
Secrets of the dead
Time takes us down so deep
Is this the place we seek?
Secrets of the dead
Secrets of the dead
We never learn form our mistakes
Imperfect till the end
You can't pick up the pieces
And the hearts we break can't mend
As if they knew the gift they brought
Was wasted on this earth
They searched out for a better race
On whom to bring rebirth
We let ourselves be bled
Secrets of the dead
We let ourselves be bled
Secrets of the dead
Where angels fear to tread
The secrets of the dead

Battle Cry
Hail the hero coming home
Honour bound from whence he roamed
Fortitude and skill
Call of duty all alone
Lead the nation for the crown
Serve the orders coming down
Charge ahead with pride
Guard the chivalry you've shown
Those forsaken reawakened with my battle cry
Indestructible by choice
Valour rings out with the voice
Rail the consequence
Destiny's the flag you hoist
Your endeavor lives forever with my battle cry
Battle cry
Death defy
Battle cry
Never die
Cast this sorrow to the wind
Let tomorrow be the light you're made to herald in
Like a master of the seven seas
Your reputation's grown
This eternal flame's been sown
Praise for sacrifice that's done
Well deserved you carried on
Let your hearts be full
For those heroes every one
Restitution absolution with my battle cry
Exoneration condemnation with my battle cry
Battle cry
Death defy
Battle cry
Battle cry

Beginning Of The End
The time has come
And as I reach up to the sky
The love will never die
At last it's here
The darkest sky begins to clear
The final hour draws near
But the voices are calling me
Erasing the pain and the fear
So lay me down
Lay me to rest
It's over now 'cause I know
It's the beginning of the end
And so we'll rise
By the grace of God alone
His words are carved in stone
I'm never gone
I'll always be within your heart
Waiting's the worst part
Now the voices are calling me
Soothing me and easing the pain and the fear
So lay me down
Lay me to rest
It's over now 'cause I know
It's the beginning of the end
And I see my life pass quickly by
I am watching
All these years we thought we were so wise
They mean nothing
Walk alone into the dying mist come alive for ever
See the things we've never seen before
Hand in hand together
They galling rays are lighting up the open door
We've all been waiting for
All the voices are calling me
Showing the path that is clear
So lay me down
Lay me to rest
It's over now 'cause I know
It's the beginning of the end
So lay me down
Lay me to rest
It's over now 'cause I know
It's the beginning of the end

Snakebite
Two bit sniper
Kiss the viper
Lie in wait as you take the bait
Feel you getting nearer
And I'm coiled up aiming to bite
The clock starts ticking
When you start gunning
I strike so fast
You won't see me coming
Get ready - ready for a snake bite
Get ready - ready for a snake bite
I'll kill your will
You can run till
There's no escape when you taste my venom
I'll track you down till there's no place left to hide
The clock starts ticking
When you start gunning
I'll strike so fast
You won't see me coming
Get ready - ready for a snake bite
Get ready - ready for a snake bite
Undertaker meet you maker
I'm cutting loose and let fly
Double dealer moving in nearer
It's time to say goodbye
Feel my poison
Your misfortune
Flowing through you paralyzing
Every vein in your body
Till your brain's ready to explode
The clock starts ticking
When you start gunning
I'll strike so fast you won't see me coming
Get ready - get ready - ready for a snake bite
Get ready - get ready - ready for a snake bite
You won't see me coming
Get ready - get ready - ready for a snake bite
Get ready - get ready - ready for a snake bite
You won't see me coming

Tears Of Blood
Shattered in the name of God
Shattered - batter never spare the rod
Eradicate till nothing's left
As they run you through
Shattered - battered slay the chosen fey
Tears of blood
Always falling
Tears of blood
On holy ground
Savaged for this desperate cause
Savaged - ravaged left with no remorse
Eternal life's divisive lie
Evades each mortal man
Savaged - ravaged destroying what you can
Tears of blood
Always falling
Tears of blood
On holy ground
Tears of blood
Always falling
We are weakened by your tears of blood
Hate lies till the very end
Faith dies by the hands of friends
Stay alive and live
Like you did before
Give your life to live forever
Forever more
Tears of blood
Always falling
Tears of blood
On holy ground
Tears of blood
Always falling
We are weakened by your tears of blood
Crying tears of blood
Crying tears of blood

Creatures
The night wind blows
Your heart rate grows
Your pulse is racing faster
They're on your trail
They know you'll fail
You're flirting with disaster
Creatures
The frost lies thick
Your breath comes quick
No chance for your survival
Life takes it's toll
And burns your soul
They've never had a rival
Creatures of the night
Born and raised to fight
Creatures of the night
Creatures of the night
Their sense of smell
Was honed in hell
Their eyes sharp as needles
You're bathed in sweat
You've lost your bet
Caught in this upheaval
Creatures
You're on your own
So scream and moan
It's pointless now for praying
They'll run you through
You'll get what's due
Then they'll call it a day
Creatures of the night
Born and raised to fight
Creatures of the night
Creatures of the night
Creatures
The night wind blows
Your heart rate grows
Creatures of the night
Born and raised to fight
Creatures of the night
Born and raised to fight
Creatures of the night
Creatures of the night

Bring It On
Lay it on the line
Give it some stick
No nickle no dime
Gonna pile it on thick
Rattle your cage
Moving in fast
Don't take no lip
He ain't gonna pass
Bring it on - bring it on
Step out of the shadows
Bring it on - bring it on
Step out of the shadows
Don't cry me a river
Sink or swim
We're in this together
So get stuck in
Pedal to the metal
Rise or fall
Way to go now
Winner takes all
Bring it on - bring it on
Step out of the shadows
Bring it on - bring it on
Step out of the shadows
Take your shot
You think you're big enough
You're gonna bite the dust
Give it all you got
You think you're tough enough
Come on bring it on
Bring it on
Step out of the shadows
Bring it on
Step out of the shadows
Bring it on - bring it on
Step out of the shadows
Bring it on - bring it on
Step out of the shadows
Bring it on - bring it on
Step out of the shadows
Out of the shadows
Bring it on - bring it on
Step out of the shadows
Out of the shadows

Never Forget
As the sun sets on another day
All the memories will never fade away
Looking back to all those moments that we shared
Where it all began with all those dreams we dared
We leave with no regrets - we will never forget
We'll play on till the end
It's not over not over my friends
We are together tonight
Reunited for all of our lives
And we thank you for it all
We will never forget
When the dark skies came along to test our steel
We came together and showed the world just how we feel
So remember this
We can never fall
In our hearts we're all for one and one for all
So now we will rejoice
Tonight with one voice
We'll play on till the end
It's not over my friends
We are together tonight
Reunited for all of our lives
And we thank you for it all
We will never forget
In our hearts and in our minds
We know we can't leave this behind
In our hearts and in our soul
You know we'll never be alone
As we relive the best times of our lives
You were there for us and stood right by our sides
Yes we know that all good things come to an end
This is just farewell and not goodbye my friends
And we thank you for it all
We will never forget
We'll play on till the end
It's not over my friends
We are together tonight
Reunited for all of our lives
And we thank you for it all
We will never forget
