ICED EARTH
" THE DARK SAGA "
1996


Dark Saga


The deal was rigged
There's darkness in my
soul
I want to die again

An empty soul shrouded
in darkness
Alone and confused
what am I?
Images flash memories
jaded
He took my life God
damn his lies

Fight son of the
damned, bring down the
heavens
Smash in the gates,
burn 'em down
You must accept the
fate that you've
chosen
You will obey your
destiny


Chorus

I cheated myself for
love
Love unconditional
Now just to see her
face
I've lost it all

I know there's
goodness in me
Though I'm not the
same
I will defy the master
I will refuse to be
his slave

No, I was betrayed I
can't accept this
My future's unclear,
it's a lie
I'll follow my heart
stand and be counted
The curse will lift I
will survive

Repeat Chorus


I Died for You

I can't belive this now
This isn't what I planned
I lived and died and now
I just can't understand
With all the love I feel
I could never leave her
No matter what the cost
My soulds the price to
see her

Chorus
Oh how I love you
The pain won't go away
Oh when I need you
You're always so far away
I cry for you
Leaving myself to blame
I died for you
I gave up everything

The pain was just to much
When I finally saw her
She's happy and in love
In love with my best
friend
What makes it hurt so bad
Is that I love them both
And they will never know
For love I sold my soul

Repeat Chorus


Violate


Enter now the fiendish
one
Twisted little man
Vile wretch disgusting
mess
Perverted little man
Born of hell and in
disease
Hate festers in his
veins
Demonic clown and
shapeshifter
Little man gone insane

Enter now
Enter now
And violate

AI'll beat you with
your spinal cord
Split your skull in
two
I'll feast on your
intestines
There's nothing I
can't do
I'll rip your heart
out of your chest
Watch it beat as you
cry
I revel in your agony
I violate and make you
die

Enter now
Enter now
And violate


Image

A force of light an angel
Sent through time to
destroy
Avenging the dark ones
Descending angelic force

Heaven sent the hunter
Her mission to crucify
Slay the hellborn
His offspring demonic
force

Chorus
Descending from heaven
The angel sworn to bring
him down
The hunter the thunder
The wrath of heavens
comin' down

She swore an oath, an
allegiance
Armageddon is in sight
To be the thorn in the
devils back
To make him weak, the
final fight

Repeat Chorus


The Last Laugh

My personal quest is
to make your life hell
Yes dear friend listen
up well
The power I've given I
can take as well

Prechorus
I am your father
destroyer of the light
I've taken your soul
and have given you
life
You are the damned
condemned by my hand
My son creature of the
night

Chorus
Extending, now you
rise
Tormented, soul of
fire
Deception in my eyes
Your life, your life
is mine

My new born son burn
now with anger
I command and you must
follow
Fly now and do battle
The heavens fall,
mankinds disaster

In your hour of
darkness
You warm my soul
God won't save you
Your souls been sold

Prechorus
Repeat chorus


Depths of Hell

Angels coming from above
Take the essence of his
love
Challengers call him from
al around
Demons coming from the
ground

Battles won and nothing
gained
Feel the pain
Feel the shock
From the depths of hell

Darkness dwelling in his
soul
True damnation no control
Shattered pieces of his
past
Broken dreams among the
dead

When the smoke clears he
will arise
Feel the pain
Feel the shock
From the depths of hell


Vengeance is Mine

Hear now this story of
the man that should
not be
A ghoul of blackened
torment, sullen
atrocity
A kindred soul to the
devils own, malignance
personified
Cast from his fire he
molests the purest
light

Profane to humanity
menaced by flesh and
bone
Screams of the unknown
youth to him the
sweetest tone
Undying in his will to
kill his bloodlust is
profound
For the blood of the
lamb I've got to bring
him down

Chorus
For all the young
lives you have slain
Fear now you shall
obtain
Vengeance is mine
For every young one
that has died
Your psychopathic
genocide
Vengeance is mine

I shall do what the
law won't do, I can
make the sacrifice
For the families of
these bodies
which held such
precious life
Mine is not to ask
forgiveness this deed
I've proudly done
Without god without
the devil this time I
have won

Repeat Chorus

The Suffering

Scarred

Darkness calls down to me
Sweat pours from my body
like rain
Growing wiser with each
touch
A pawn in lucifers game,
am I?

It attacks me in the
black abyss
The entity formless yet
full of rage
The mark of the beast my
body
Scarring me for eternal
life

Chorus
I brought this all upon
myself
Sold my soul to change my
life
It's up to me and no one
else
The beast in me can't
control my life

And so it's begun, the
end of me
The seed was sewn now
it's growing inside
My fate in control, not
mine
He lied

Repeat Chorus


Slave to the Dark

A twisted state of
mind, torn between two
worlds
One of which the new
me hates and the one
that's coming true
The power is
unleashed, they perish
at my gaze
But am I really in
control or am I just a
slave

I called upon this god
to deliver unto me
To grant what I desire
he brought me to my
knees
He turned his back on
me and filled me with
his lies
Ask and I received
damnation was the
price

I signed my name in
blood, didn't read the
fine print
Now I'm just a puppet
god for the devils own
descent
Bound and shackled
here forever damned a
slave
Fallen bloody tears
can't wash the pain
away

Chorus
All at once it's clear
to me
Damnation and destiny
A slave to darkness
shall I be
Damnation and destiny

And so I must repent
or will I be destroyed
Will the one that
lives in me release me
from this lie
And will the wrath of
god have mercy on my
soul
Or humilate me,
desecrate me, like his
only son

Repeat Chorus


A Question of Heaven

The time is close now,
the end is near
My walk through the
valley, trails of fear
I feel empty, my penance
overdue, I guess it's too
late now
To be with you
I'm extremely frightened
of what will surely be
I sold myself, the death
of me
I know you can't forgive
me
I know I'm on my own,
I've betrayed you
I walk alone

What exactly is the
meaning of this
Just pawns in your
twisted game
Severe pain for the lie
I'm livin'
For a love I never could
betray

Question me not say the
lord unto thee
You have chosen your own
fate and your own destiny
Denied of this life is
what you are to be
You have chosen your own
fate and your own destiny

Lord I pound my fists at
you
Won't you just let me die
Would I not suffer enough
No inner peace no after
life

I did what I thought was
right
All for the love of my
life
I know it's sad but true
Something is very wrong
Condemned to suffer so
long
For a love so true

The question that lies
within
Is so hard to understand
It still tears at me
And in my dying breath
My heart holds no regrets
I wouldn't change a thing

My spirit begins to rise
into the heavenly skies
Just to be shunned away
by you
Now all I want is to die,
no streets of gold in the
sky
And I wash my hands of
you

Rising to the heavens
light
Just to plea for death
Just to be denied
