Instrumental

Prophecy (5:26)
(Halford/Downing/Tipton)

I am the darkness
Born out of light
I am the force the fire
That burns here tonight

Bringing the future
To all mankind
Guider of life - of death
The dight of the blind

Your future lies within my eyes
What i predict will terrify
I can't control what comes to be
From the past to the present to eternity

I am Nostradamus
Do you you believe
I am Nostradamus
That i conceive

Master of chaos
Anger and rage
I hold the key
My presence will unlock the cage
I am your witness
The one who can tell
Bearing the sword - the shield
To your heaven from hell

As i unfold the mystery
I change the course of history
With premonitions from the void
Will you live, will you die
Will your worlds collide

I am Nostradamus
The hand of fate
I am Nostradamus
With love and hate

Lost in this vortex
The mystery begins
Will you be victim
Saved from your sins
Time is illusion
Trapped in the skies
Destiny's calling
Hear from my eyes

Many years ago a boy was born
A boy with a gift
A gift that would be the envy of all mankind
To see what no other could - great visions
of the future
Or would a curse be bestowed on the boy
The boy whose name was Nostradamus,
damus, damus. Damus, damus, damus

I am Nostradamus
Do not forsake
I am Nostradamus
Your life's at stake

I am Nostradamus
The lightning rod
I am Nostradamus
The voice of God

Celestial comets
Reign towards earth
Alchemy's tempest
Predicting your worth
Pray for deliverence
Escape if you can
For i have borne witness
To the purging of man

Awakening (0:52)
(Halford/Tipton/Downing)

As the evening comes to pass
I prepare myself to aks
Never knowing what may come
Oh! Oh!

Close the door and turn the key
Breathing in uncertainty
As my heart begins to race
Oh! Oh!

Revelations (7:05)
(Halford/Tipton/Downing)

I see all things
From my mind's innocence
When they call me
I hear their prophecy

You say i must
Face my own deliverence
Did you choose me
Have i lost sanity

These eyes can see right through me
I feel your soul inside
What have you waiting for me
I'll do what you decide

And now this possession
Bcomes my obsession
Adrift in illusion
I'm sent into confusion

Such torment and sadness
That overwhelmes like madness
So fearful and intense
It burns inside

I'll spread the word
Around the world
My name will last
Eternally

I have the power
I have the choice
They'll hear my voice
For centuries

Pandora's Box is opended
Too late no turning round
A paradox has woken
I serve with honor bound

I take this possession
And make it my obsession
Alive in illusion
To make sense from confusion

Come torment come sadness
Give me the joy of madness
This fear and this intent
Runs deep inside

This deepest possession
For my life
I want this obsession
In my life
I claim this possession
Take my life

The Four Horsemen (1:35)
(Halford/Tipton/Downing)

Horsemen raised from the light
Omens filled with dread
Descreation i beheld
A world of men gone mad
The final age comes to pass
Apocalypse is here at last
A call to arms - the end to all
Peace on earth no more

War (5:04)
(Halford/Tipton/Downing)

We come in all the glory now
No prayers suffice such evil foe
Black wings . the storm is gathering
And time will say
We know the power of heresy
Is on it's way

Gods of war
Heed their warning
Gods of war
They are coming now

No man can quell the suffering
The hell and all the grief it brings
Our lif is almost over no there's
nothing more
We feel the pain is everywhere
It comes and roars

Gods of war
Judge and jury
Gods of war
Pain and fury now

We must hold this threat
From such panic yet
There will come a time
When we'll be saved
Our resilient heart
To confound defeat yeah!

Out of purgatory
Unto victory
We shall overcome
The war they staged
Through unyielding power
In the darkest hour
They will retreat

Gods of war
Devestation
Gods of war
End creation now!

Sands of Time (2:36)
(Halford/Tipton/Downing)

The winds of change are everywhere
And all the world must be aware
There's nowhere left for man to go
The sands of time are running low

These vision fall before my face
I see the end of human's race
These feelings rise inside my sould
And everything is out of control

The winds of change
Are in the air
The winds of change
Are everywhere

Pestilence and Plague (5:08)
(Halford/Tipton/Downing)

The storms from the gods make us
Perish with hunger
Starvation adn drought
Are unleashed on this earth
Reap what you sow
From your gree and our treasures
Far more than we need
Now far more than we're worth

Nella tentazione
Cercando lagloria
Il prezzoda pagare
E'la caduta dell'uomo

Now we can live
In despair and in sorrow
Our children are lost
With all theat we love
Plague spreading forth
To lay waste to our culture
Civilizatios demise from above

Nella tentazione
Cercando lagloria
Il prezzado pagare
E'la caduta dell'uomo

This world revolves and i foretell
The end of man resides in hell
For you can see that in my heart
We will depart

Nella tentazione
Cercando lagloria
Il prezzoda pagare
E'la caduta dell'uomo

Nella tentazione
Into temptation
Cercando lagloria
In search of glory
Il prezzoda pagare
The price we pay
E'la caduta dell'uomo
The fall of man

Death (7:33)
(Halford/Tipton/Downing)

I will take your final breath
And i will be your last regret
Cold blood - runs in my blackened heart
Tearing - every soul apart

Messenger of death - wields the scythe
Of man's damnation
Messenger of death - hold his blade
For termination

Sin - is what i feast upon
I'm forging my crematorium
Your tomb - is waiting here for you
Welcome to my ritual

Messenger of death - wirlds the scythe
Of man's damnation
Messenger of death - holds his blade
For termination

Death rides out from the storm
We turn to God and cry
Ignored we turn to face
This vengeance from the sky

Death rides out from the storm
No time left to repent
No quarter - no escape
No line of seld defence

Death rides out from the storm
In terror we confess
Our voice is heard no more
His deed is merciless

Death rides out from the sotrm
Deface humanity
There's no escape from this
Human calamity

Death rides out from the storm
We turn to God and cry
Ignored we turn to face
This vengeance from the sky
Messenger of death - wields the scythe
Of man's damnation
Messenger of death - holds his blade
For termination

Peace (2:21)
(Halford/Tipton/Downing)

Memories unfold
Search the past to
Never growing old
Once we had peace
Such peace

Seasons come and go
Every man's a child to someone
Learning as we grow
Love and you'll live
Forgive

Conquest transgress
Purgatory
Lift us onward
Trist in glory
