IRON MASK LYRICS

1. I Don't Forget, I Don't Forgive

I've always been this guy
who believes in his dreams
But sometimes life doesn't take
the expected way
The sacrifice I made, I pay it every day
Playing with fools
They'll take the eyes of a blind man
Only the wealthy strive
In this world of despair
But I will face it till the end

I don't forget, I don't forgive
I won't regret, my life has to go on
I don't forget, I don't forgive
I won't regret, I will be free

You speak with fancy words
but I can see your game
Using your best cards
still the ace is in my hands
You tried to break me down
with all those ugly lies
But I will smash you like an ant

I don't forget, I don't forgive
I won't regret, my life has to go on
I don't forget, I don't forgive
I won't regret, I will be free

2. Doctor Faust

You have reached the very end
of everything you learned
Pushed by your excessive pride,
you want the secret knowledge
With the help of magicians,
you summoned the devil
Falling deep into the arts
of unholy magic rites

Two angels appeared, the good and the bad
Will you be wise? Will you be strong?
One by one they spoke, will you leave the lord?
Mephistopheles wants you
It is too late and you have made your choice
You striked a deal with the prince of hell
What will be, shall be, there's no turning back
For twenty four years you will get
all what you need

Doctor, Doctor Faust
Have you lost your soul?
Doctor, Doctor Faust
Have you sold your soul?

Now the pact has to be sealed,
your precious blood as ink
The wound was divinely healed
but you refused God's help
You've been warned,
you are so blind to your own salvation
Lucifer showed you the truth,
seven deadly sins
You took your oath, the evil has won
The road to hell is all you've earned
And you are old, you've spent all your life
Waiting for answers you never had
The messenger fooled to you, as sinner you'll die
His only master was Lucifer
For twenty four years
You had all what you want
The damnation devils have torn
your body assembly

Doctor, Doctor Faust
Have you lost your soul?
Doctor, Doctor Faust
Have you sold your soul?

Two angels appeared, the good and the bad
Your mind wasn't so bright in the end
The demon has won, you did the wrong choice
You played with fire and your soul is lost

3. Galileo

Galileo Galilei was his name
He was born in the renaissance
A stargazer soul with an open mind
A lifetime staring at the skies
Watching Jupiter and its moons,
the heavens have no secrets for him.
He revealed the Earth was not the center
in God's cosmic design

Galileo, forgotten genius locked in a cell
Galileo, prisoner of Rome, he lived in hell
Galileo, they tried so hard to tame his mind
Galileo, one day the world will see he's right

In Pisa, on the tower
He proved his science and theories
The law of the pendulum made his fame
Then he built his own mighty telescope
And told us the truth about the solar system
But he died as a heretic
Blind and sick, the books he wrote stupidly banned

Galileo, forgotten genius locked in a cell
Galileo, prisoner of Rome, he lived in hell
Galileo, they tried so hard to tame his mind
Galileo, one day the world will see he's right

4. Oliver Twist

An orphan English boy,
so fragile and so young
A life of poverty,
he stayed in a workhouse since he's born
No comforts and no food,
he had to beg for more
The beadle was no good man
and gave the kid away
He had to face their hate,
he had to face their violence

But one day he striked back
and escaped for London
to meet his destiny

Oliver Twist, innocent lad
There's only one way to survive
Oliver Twist, you might get smashed
You have to struggle for your life
Oliver Twist, don't cross the line
There's only one step to the crime
Oliver Twist, better watch out
Child of the street, keep up the fight
Oliver Twist's always on the run
Oliver Twist's always on the run
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

So naive, full of hopes,
he met honest folks
Then he lived with Fagin
and his gang at Saffron Hill
In the pickpockets lair,
ensnared he had to steal
Again mistreated,
he had to obey or he'll be killed
Surrounded by evil souls,
just one man believed him as his son
Fagin was arrested,
Condemned to the gallows
The kid found his family

Oliver Twist, innocent lad
There's only one way to survive
Oliver Twist, you might get smashed
You have to struggle for your life
Oliver Twist, don't cross the line
There's only one step to the crime
Oliver Twist, better watch out
Child of the street, keep up the fight
Oliver Twist's always on the run
Oliver Twist's always on the run
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

5. March 666

In a time of war and throw
In a land where madness ruled
The devil's hand was pulling the strings
Uniting them all
Hypnotizing with his speeches
Behind the mask of the nation's pride
Then he raised a furious army
To hide his lies

Oh oh oh March 666
Oh oh oh March 666

He used fear as his biggest weapon
There was no mercy in his eyes
Follow his word and you'll be safe
For the sake of the race
The troops of death were marching on
Gathering women, children and men
Orders to kill, orders to torture
Die for the Reich

Oh oh oh March 666
Oh oh oh March 666

6. All For Metal

Children of the night,
I am your voice
The rite has just begun
I will be your guide
till the end
Through your torments
I will share your life
I will possess your body and soul
You'll never detach from me
United we are strong and we'll remain
ourselves forevermore

All for Metal,
All for Rock
It will always rule my world
We belong to the night,
we will rock till we die
All for Metal,
All for Rock

Feel the danger,
hear the loudness
Like a blazing thunder storm
Your heartbeat is now going faster,
you can't escape
you're in my hands
Now, you delivered from all sins
and stand true to our believes
The path where all think it's so dark
for us it's brighter than a thousand stars

All for Metal,
All for Rock
It will always rule my world
We belong to the night,
we will rock till we die
All for Metal,
All for Rock
It will always rule,
All for Metal
All for Metal
All for Rock

7. The Rebellion Of Lucifer

Morning Star, your light has gone
You can't take over God's throne

Fallen Angel
From the kingdom of Heaven, you're exiled
You have lost your holy wings
now and forevermore
In a realm of flames and sorrow
you hide eternally
Sometimes light turns out in darkness

Now the flesh and blood you rule
Mortal Kings forever doomed

Fallen Angel
From the kingdom of Heaven, you're exiled
You have lost your holy wings
now and forevermore
In a realm of flames and sorrow
you hide eternally
Sometimes light turns out in darkness

[Spoken:]
"I will ascend to heaven, I will raise my throne above the stars of God; I will sit on the mount of assembly on the heights of Zaphon; I will ascend to the top of the clouds. I will make myself like the Most High. I will take over heaven. I will be God."

Fallen Angel
From the kingdom of Heaven, you're exiled
You have lost your holy wings
now and forevermore
In a realm of flames and sorrow
you hide eternally
Sometimes light turns out in darkness

Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
The rebellion of Lucifer.
The light fades in the dark
The rebellion of Lucifer.
The perfect angel dies
The rebellion of Lucifer.
You'll never wear that crown
The rebellion of Lucifer.
Now your soul's on fire

8. Diabolica

Madness, Decadence
Is there still mercy?
This world has gone to hell,
this planet lost control
And I can't stand this life anymore
None is innocent. Everything slowly dies
We'll never get back faith anymore

Diabolica, Diabolica
Diabolica, Diabolica

Children, raise your fists
Don't let it all fall apart
How can we be so blind?
Insanity and lies.
And this must end,
an eye for an eye
the evil hides so well,
the beasts have shown their face
Now, we must fight fire with fire

Diabolica, Diabolica
Diabolica, Diabolica
Oh oh oh Oh oh oh
Diabolica, Diabolica
Diabolica, Diabolica

9. The First And The Last

A life full of sorrow.
A broken heart of glass
You saw the light
when all around was just black
I came into your world,
you healed my deadly wounds
Two Lonely wolves met,
now the hunt can begin
after the rain and the storm.
You helped me up from the ground
There's no more pain,
no more cries
I will reach for the sky

Let me be the first and only
Let me be the last and only
Let me be the one to hold you
As long as I live, your guiding star
Let me be the first and only
Let me be the last and only
As long as I live,
I'll be your guiding star

Is it our destiny?
I know we're meant to be
The frozen winter's gone,
together we are one
After the violent thunder.
After so many wars.
I've stopped to bleed,
I start to live
The limit is the sky

Let me be the first and only
Let me be the last and only
Let me be the one to hold you
As long as I live, your guiding star
Let me be the first and only
Let me be the last and only
As long as I live,
I'll be your guiding star

No Gods, no demons, no men.
None could break this bond
Forever side by side,
two wild wolves running free

10. Ararat

Mystic land
where the old prophecy's born
The arch had to protect them all
But the evil's masterplan
was asleep for years
Killing in a flood of blood rain

Ararat,
Holiest Mountain
Ararat,
A million of Souls
Ararat,
Holiest Martyrs
Ararat,
The tears of God
Ararat...

None will ever win
this endless war
But one has to admit the truth
So many innocents walked
till their last breath
They fell in this march of death

Ararat,
Holiest Mountain
Ararat,
A million of Souls
Ararat,
Holiest Martyrs
Ararat,
The tears of God
Ararat...

Some children and women
could hide from the fire
Saved by the brave and the wise
Though anyone who dared
to brave the empire
Was sentenced to die or exiled

Ararat,
Holiest Mountain
Ararat,
A million of Souls
Ararat,
Holiest Martyrs
Ararat,
The tears of God
Ararat...

11. Flying Fortress

Flying high
through clouds and the storm
Hunting down enemies
Aces of aces,
he'll get them all
He has no fear in his heart,
no regrets and no remorse

Flying Fortress,
Always fearless
Flying Fortress,
In the skies forevermore
Flying Fortress,
So relentless
Flying Fortress,
You will fight forevermore

He will defend the island
Sending them right to hell
Hero of War, Bravest of all
One by one they are falling,
He has to fly to feel alive

Flying Fortress,
Always fearless
Flying Fortress,
In the skies forevermore
Flying Fortress,
So relentless
Flying Fortress,
You will fight forevermore

12. Cursed In The Devil's Mill

Follow the of your master
Only he decides who dies
You are in the hands of darkness
You made your choice
Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide
Every day you have to grind
Every night, Black arts apprentice
You will learn the evil spells
But death wants his share
Under the new moon, they all obey
One of them has to die
To keep the master forever young

Like the raven, fly
You're forever
cursed in the devil's mill
Like the raven, fly
You're forever trapped
In the devil's den

Now you realized the magic
Can't be undone, he is too vicious
He will tempt you, He will fool you
Never shake the demon's hand
Only love could break this curse
Only this girl with her heart
Never pronounce her name
Or the master will take her soul
But death wants his share
Every year, one of them has to die
And you all dig this grave
Everything in this world has a price

Like the raven, fly
You're forever
cursed in the devil's mill
Like the raven, fly
You're forever trapped
In the devil's den
