[length: 05:06]
[00:00.92]Woe to you, oh earth and sea
[00:04.84]For the Devil sends the beast with wrath
[00:09.11]Because he knows the time is short
[00:13.10]Let him who hath understanding
[00:15.31]Reckon the number of the beast
[00:17.82]For it is a human number
[00:20.23]Its number is six hundred and sixty six
[00:24.82]
[00:28.59]I left alone,
[00:31.98]My mind was blank
[00:35.28]I needed time to think
[00:37.95]To get the memories from my mind
[00:42.20]What did I see?
[00:45.03]Can I believe
[00:48.84]That what I saw That night was real and not just fantasy?
[00:55.76]Just what I saw
[00:59.29]In my old dreams
[01:02.38]Were they reflections of my warped mind staring back at me
[01:09.10]’Cause in my dreams
[01:12.59]It’s always there
[01:15.76]The evil face that twists my mind and brings me to despair
[01:20.52]
[01:34.04]Night was black, was no use holding back
[01:38.09]’Cause I just had to see, was someone watching me?
[01:43.99]In the mist, dark figures move and twist
[01:48.13]Was all this for real or just some kind of Hell?
[01:53.50]The number of the beast
[01:58.56]Hell and fire
[02:00.79]Was spawned to be released
[02:04.67]Torches blazed and sacred chants were praised
[02:08.99]As they start to cry, hands held to the sky
[02:14.44]In the night, the fires are burning bright
[02:18.50]The ritual has begun, Satan’s work is done
[02:24.11]The number of the beast
[02:29.09]Sacrifice is going on tonight
[02:33.24]
[03:50.11]This can’t go on, I must inform the law
[03:54.72]Can this still be real, or just some crazy dream?
[04:00.10]But I feel drawn towards the chanting hordes
[04:04.63]Seem to mesmerize
[04:07.25]Can’t avoid their eyes
[04:10.00]The number of the beast
[04:14.92]The one for you and me
[04:19.03]
[04:21.72]I’m coming back
[04:24.85]I will return
[04:27.82]And I’ll possess your body
[04:30.46]And I’ll make you burn
[04:34.10]I have the fire
[04:36.99]I have the force
[04:40.05]I have the power to make my evil take its course
