Iced Earth - Slave To The Dark lyrics

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

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

All at once it's clear to me

Damnation and destiny

A slave to darkness shall I be

Damnation and destiny
