[length: 04:54]
[00:00.04]Woe to you, oh earth and sea
[00:04.74]For the Devil sends the beast with wrath
[00:08.31]Because he knows the time is short
[00:12.06]Let him who hath understanding
[00:13.88]Reckon the number of the beast
[00:16.56]For it is a human number
[00:20.09]Its number is six hundred and sixty six
[00:23.32]
[00:27.37]I left alone, my mind was blank, I needed time to think
[00:36.05]To get the memories from my mind
[00:40.08]What did I see? Can I believe that what I saw
[00:47.94]That night was real and not just fantasy?
[00:52.82]Just what I saw in my old dreams
[00:59.32]Were they reflections of my warped mind staring back at me
[01:05.78]’Cause in my dreams, it’s always there
[01:12.28]The evil face that twists my mind and brings me to despair
[01:19.68]
[01:29.74]Night was black, was no use holding back
[01:33.66]’Cause I just had to see, was someone watching me?
[01:39.35]In the mist, dark figures move and twist
[01:43.54]Was all this for real or just some kind of Hell?
[01:48.50]Six, six, six, the number of the beast
[01:53.46]Hell and fire was spawned to be released
[01:59.41]Torches blazed and sacred chants were praised
[02:03.87]As they start to cry, hands held to the sky
[02:09.23]In the night, the fires are burning bright
[02:13.19]The ritual has begun, Satan’s work is done, Donington
[02:18.42]Six, six, six, the number of the beast
[02:23.24]Sacrifice is going on tonight
[02:29.59]
[03:42.42]This can’t go on, I must inform the law
[03:47.01]Can this still be real, or just some crazy dream?
[03:52.86]But I feel drawn towards the chanting hordes
[03:56.66]Seem to mesmerize, can’t avoid their eyes
[04:01.35]Six, six, six, the number of the beast
[04:06.31]Six, six, six, the one for you and me
[04:13.27]I’m coming back, I will return
[04:19.32]And I’ll possess your body, and I’ll make you burn
[04:25.39]I have the fire, I have the force
[04:31.33]I have the power to make my evil take its course
