Текст (слова) песни: Iron Maiden - Number of the beast
"Woe to you, Oh Earth and Sea, for the Devil sends the beast with wrath, because he knows the time is short... Let him who hath understanding reckon the number of the beast for it is a human number, its number is Six hundred and sixty six." [Revelations CH. XIII v.18]
I left alone my mind was blank I needed time to think to get the memories from my mind
What did I see can I believe that what I saw that night was real and not just fantasy
Just what I saw in my old dreams were they reflections of my warped mind staring back at me
`Cos in my dream it`s always there the evil face that twists my mind and brings me to despair
The night was black was no use holding back `Cos I just had to see was someone watching me In the mist dark figures move and twist Was this all for real or some kind of hell 666 the number of the beast Hell and fire was spawned to be released
Torches blazed and sacred chants were praised As they start to cry hands held to the sky In the night the fires burning bright The ritual has begun Satan`s work is done 666 the number of the beast Sacrifice is going on tonight
This can`t go on I must inform the law Can this still be real or just some crazy dream But I feel drawn towards the evil chanting hordes They seem to mesmerise me ... can`t avoid their eyes 666 the number of the beast 666 the one for you and me
I`m coming back I will return And I`ll possess your body and I`ll make you burn I have the fire I have the force I have the power to make my evil take its course
