Lyrics

[00:27.98] I left alone my mind was blank
[00:33.96] I needed time to think to get the memories from my mind
[00:39.88] What did I see can I believe that what I saw
[00:47.42] that night was real and not just fantasy
[00:52.06] Just what I saw in my old dreams were they
[00:58.63] reflections of my warped mind staring back at me
[01:04.32] Cos in my dreams it's always there the evil face that twists my mind
[01:12.48] and brings me to despair
[01:30.47] The night was black was no use holding back
[01:34.37] Cos I just had to see was someone watching me
[01:39.76] In the mist dark figures move and twist
[01:44.15] was all this for real or some kind of hell
[01:49.38] 666 the Number of the Beast
[01:54.23] Hell and fire was spawned to be released
[02:00.46] Torches blazed and sacred chants were praised
[02:04.56] as they start to cry hands held to the sky
[02:09.82] In the night the fires burning bright
[02:14.04] the ritual has begun Satan's work is done
[02:19.03] 666 the Number of the Beast
[02:23.99] Sacrifice is going on tonight
[03:41.51] This can't go on I must inform the law
[03:45.85] Can this still be real or some crazy dream
[03:50.92] but I feel drawn towards the evil chanting hordes
[03:55.32] they seem to mesmerise me...can't avoid their eyes
[04:00.36] 666 the Number of the Beast
[04:05.15] 666 the one for you and me
[04:11.57] I'm coming back I will return
[04:17.24] And I'll possess your body and I'll make you burn
[04:23.53] I have the fire I have the force
[04:29.13] I have the power to make my evil take its course
