Megadeth - Looking Down The Cross lyrics

Now you'll know why death was summoned here tonight

I'll recall my perils, they'll kill me in pride

No, I can't run away there's no place to hide

Though too much to live for, I owe enough to die

Ask not for salvation, my death shall mean their lives

Hatred and guilt the alter they've built high preists of sin

Destiny, fate the wicked ones gate beckoning you in.

Down the walkways, through the blood stained town

Looking down the cross, bleeding from the crown

Led to stay to die besides the thieves

Kill the king of the world to be

And now to you, this will come

A putrifying pestolence

More noxious than the serpents breath

Male violently destined

More corrupt than the malice of choronzon

More disease than the wind

Of the moonlight sun

Putrification you have caused

No need for confession

Now you wish you had a gun to stop the demolition

Swinging the judgement hammer

Man, woman, child no-one is safe

The heads of the dead are the banner

And this was all you got

So don these broken wings

Sands of time run out

Bells of Hades ring

Is this a nightmare

To unhallow thy name

Smell of brimstone

Dancing in the flames

No help now as you fulfill his task

Chief of evil has got you by the ass

Set free to sit upon the throne

Just a dream?

Your weeping all alone!

Looking down the cross

(speak no evil)

I'm looking down the cross

(speak no evil
