Awake the Troopers

Iron Maiden - The Legacy

…You lie in your death bed now

But what did you bring to the table

Brought us only holy sin

Utter trust is a deadly thing

To the prayer of holy peace

We didn't know what was lying underneath

So how could we be such fools

And to think that we thought you the answer

I can't begin to understand in all the lies

But on your death bed I can see it in your eyes

Just as clear as all the sweat upon your brow

It really makes sense I can see it clearly now

Tangled up in a web of lies

Could have been a way to prophesise

Unaware of the consequence

Not aware of the secrets that you kept …
