BLACK STEEL LYRICS

1. Breaking The Chains

Bite the hand that feeds me, break the power which enslaves
Ignite the fires of destiny and strengthen freedom's reign
Defy the executioner, usurp the overlords
Breaking loose and running wild; I'm gonna take it all

[Pre-chorus:]
TAKE - take control
LET - let it loose

Breaking the chains
Breaking the chains
Breaking the chains
Breaking the chains - I will burst from this hell

Rip away the nails that crucify me to this pain
Expel the evil poison from my veins
Kick the dirt that buries me inside this living hell
Break the Chains I'm bursting from my cell

[Pre-chorus]
[Chorus]

[Chorus x2]

2. Time Marches On

I shout but no-one can hear me
I feel only pain in my heart
I love but my love lies bleeding
Burning inside every day we're apart

[Pre-chorus:]
We walk the highest mountains
We blaze across the sky

[Chorus:]
Time, time marches on
Strangers to love, tear us apart
Facing adversity, where will we be
Where will we go, time marches on

By your eyes I am blessed as I'm kneeling
Swept away like a light in the black
By your life I am flamed but not healing
Swept away when there's no turning back

We sail the seas of thunder
To cross the great divide

[Chorus:]
Time, time marches on
Strangers to love, tear us apart
Facing uncertainty, where will we be
Where will we go, time marches on

Facing uncertainty

3. Destructor

We see his lethal power shattering the night
Come many light years to our skies
This cyborg predator unleashed on all mankind
Programmed for destruction eliminate all life
Is there somewhere to run a place where we can hide
Cling to survival taking flight

[Pre-chorus:]
Power of the Gods
Defender of the lost
We see his lethal power shattering the night
Come many light years to our skies

[Chorus:]
Destructor - faster than light he will fly
With fury he'll tear up the night
Pounding the world with his might
Destructor, Destructor.

We must do battle with this cold killing machine
Somehow we know we must survive
We will command our human forces to attack
From now on no turning back
Gather battalions in the skies & on the ground
The fight for our future is right now

[Pre-chorus:]
We must do battle with this cold killing machine
Somehow we know we must survive

[Chorus]

Power of the gods
Defender of the lost

We must do battle with this cold killing machine
Somehow we know we must survive

[Chorus]

4. Hell's Gates

Standing at the gates of hell no sanctuary below
The final date with destiny awaits the mortal blow
Iron men of flesh and blood all those about to die
We crush our fear don't hesitate we look death in the eye

[Chorus:]
When all is lost we fight to win
Always strong the might within

Disciples will desert you and more fools will come and go
The light is gone off can't you see
Demons would destroy them and the fools would never know
When night is gone and you know you're free
What you see is what you get oh
What you see is what you get yeah
What you see is what you get oh
What you see is what you get yeah

Glorious in victory in death we stand as one
Against all odds we reign in blood survivors on the run
Damnation of our souls the curse we dare not reason why
They punish us against our sins condemned about to die

[Chorus]

5. Bonded By Steel

Searching for light when all else is black
Cut through the ice in which you freeze
Looking for soul when life feels cold
So much inside you must believe

[Pre-chorus:]
Metal forces raise your voices will to carry on
Metal forces raise your voices will to carry on

[Chorus x 1/2:]
Chained to the heart we are never apart
Brave to the last one and all

Where will it end to this prison we are sent
Go forth and fly into the night
Life can be tough and you've taken enough
So go on and fight - fight for your life

[Pre-chorus]

[Chorus:]
Chained to the heart
We are never apart
Brave to the last one and all
Bonded by steel we are in for the kill
Fight to the last one and all

We stand on top of the world
A force in space and time
We take out place in line
There is no good reason
For why we don't belong
Ship of fools

[Pre-chorus]

[Chorus]

6. Rise Up

You feel the power in your heart & soul
You've got the fire in your eyes
No-one can fill you with their foolish lies
Onward to victory you will go

[Pre-chorus:]
Is there a patron saint for my steel quest
To keep me from falling into the abyss
Eternal fires of destiny burn
True victory we'll learn

[Chorus:]
Endless battles we will fight as one
To glory we will ride
United see us fight the holy war
Our standards they will rise up

Don't let them rule you with their prophecies
They deal in fear for their control
Stand tall & fight for what you know is true
Conquer injustice with your heart

[Pre-chorus]
[Chorus x2]

[Chorus x2]

7. Vengeance Of The Damned

Searching for light when all else is black
Cut through the ice in which you freeze
Looking for soul when life feels cold
So much inside you must believe

[Pre-chorus:]
Metal forces raise your voices will to carry on
Metal forces raise your voices will to carry on

[Chorus x 1/2]
Chained to the heart we are never apart
Brave to the last one and all

Where will it end to this prison we are sent
Go forth and fly into the night
Life can be tough and you've taken enough
So go on and fight - fight for your life

[Pre-chorus]

[Chorus:]
Chained to the heart
We are never apart
Brave to the last one and all
Bonded by steel we are in for the kill
Fight to the last one and all

We stand on top of the world
A force in space and time
We take out place in line
There is no good reason
For why we don't belong
Ship of fools

[Pre-chorus]

[Chorus]

8. Hail Of Fire

Try us in a court of fire
Dig your claws into our heart
Throw us to the starving wolves
Tear us apart
Face us up against the wind
Make us pay forgotten sins
Lies and broken promises burning within

[Chorus:]
Standing in a hail of fire
They'll never take our soul
Standing in a hail of fire
We'll take control

Torture us with burning iron
Run our bodies through with steel
Tear our flesh all from our bones
Nail us to the wheel
Chain us to eternal pain
We'll not spend our life in vain
Glory is for evermore, vindicate the slain

[Chorus]
[Repeat 1st verse]
[Chorus x2]

9. Too Wild To Tame

We walk alone, harder than stone
Outcast lean hungry machines
Create the will mind set to kill
Empower our spirit to fight

[Pre-chorus:]
We are masters of our destiny
Embodied raw power set free
We are the strong fight to carry on
Baptised in fire eternal desire
We must believe.. We must believe..
Our time will come again

[Chorus:]
We're all the same too wild to tame
We stand together now and forever
A burning flame too wild to tame
We are together now and forever

We see the signs, it's our time to shine
Exploding with fury we rise
We walk the line this is our time
Banish all fear from our minds

[Pre-chorus]
[Chorus]

Outcast lean hungry machines
Create the will mind set to kill
Empower our spirit to fight

We are the strong fight to carry on
Baptised in fire eternal desire
We must believe.. We must believe..
Our time will come again

We stand together now and forever
A burning flame too wild to tame
We are together now and forever

We see the signs, it's our time to shine
Exploding with fury we rise
We walk the line this is our time
Banish all fear from our minds

[Pre-chorus]
[Chorus]
