The Iron Seat

Opening of the gates The non-existent waits To judge your mortal fate Among the human race What’s the matter now? Can you even tell? When you dwell in evil The devil sends a messenger from hell --From hell… Live your life the way you want It’s time to show just what you’ve got Fire burning hate in your heart Or goodness playing a glorious part --A glorious part! But you chose to stray To the dark where the shadows play Complete the chain of decay It’s time to pay, it’s time to pay Time to take your place On the maiden you create Shackle you bones And your flesh to the Iron Seat --The Iron Seat What’s the matter now? Can you even tell? When you dwell in evil The devil sends a messenger from hell Who’s the one to blame? Now finish the malifical game! And when it’s all over You’ll pay the piper another soul to gain Who’s your master now? Now you have to tell When you live your life towards a greater good You’re replaced for someone else Who’s the one to blame? Just finish the damn game! You were bad from the start So play your part from beginning to the end -Boz-
