1.DIFFERENT WORLD

You lead me on the path
Keep showing me the way

I feel a little lost
A little strange today

I think I'll take a hold
Of whatever comes my way

Then we'll see what happens
Take it day by day

I though I had it all
I had it all worked out

Just what my future held
That there would be no doubt

But then the card came up
And I took another turn

But I don't know if it's
Fulfillment that I yearn

Tell me what you can hear
And then tell me what you see

Everybody has a different way
To view the world

I would like you to know
When you see the simple things

To appreciate this life
It's not too late to learn

Don't want to be here
Somewhere I'd rather be

But when I get there
I might find it's not for me

Don't know what I want
Or where I want to be

I'm feeling more confused
The more the days go by

2.IRAN MAIDEN

Won't you come into my room, I wanna show you all my wares.
I just want to see your blood, I just want to stand and stare.

See the blood begin to flow as it falls upon the floor.
Iron Maiden can't be faught, Iron Maiden can't be sought.

Oh Well, wherever, wherever you are,
Iron Maiden's gonna get you, no matter how far

See the blood flow watching it shed up above my head.
Iron Maiden wants you for dead.

Won't you come into my room, I wanna show you all my wares.
I just want to see your blood, I just want to stand and stare.

See the blood begin to flow as it falls upon the floor.
Iron Maiden can't be fought, Iron Maiden can't be sought

2.HALLOWED BE THY NAME

I'm waiting in my cold cell when the bell begins to chime
Reflecting on my past life and it doesn't have much time

'Cause at 5 o'clock they take me to the Gallows Pole
The sands of time for me are running low

When the priest comes to read me the last rites
I take a look through the bars at the last sights

Of a world that has gone very wrong for me

Can it be there's been some sort of an error
Hard to stop the surmounting terror
Is it really the end not some crazy dream

Somebody please tell me that I'm dreaming
It's not easy to stop from screaming

But words escape me when I try to speak
Tears they flow but why am I crying?

After all am I not afraid of dying?
Don't I believe that there never is an end?

As the guards march me out to the courtyard
Someone calls from a cell "God be with you"
If there's a God then why has he let me die?

As I walk all my life drifts before me
And though the end is near I'm not sorry
Catch my soul 'cause it's willing to fly away

Mark my words believe my soul lives on
Don't worry now that I have gone
I've gone beyond to see the truth

When you know that your time is close at hand
Maybe then you'll begin to understand
Life down there is just a strange illusion

Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Hallowed be Thy name

Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Hallowed be Thy name

3. THE TROOPER

You'll take my life but I'll take yours too
You'll fire your musket but I'll run you through

So when you're waiting for the next attack
You'd better stand there's no turning back.

The Bugle sounds and the charge begins
But on this battlefield no one wins

The smell of acrid smoke and horses breath
As I plunge on into certain death.

The horse he sweats with fear we break to run
The mighty roar of the Russian guns

And as we race towards the human wall
The screams of pain as my comrades fall

We hurdle bodies that lay on the ground
And the Russians fire another round

We get so near yet so far away
We won't live to fight another day.

We get so close near enough to fight
When a Russian gets me in his sights

He pulls the trigger and I feel the blow
A burst of rounds take my horse below

And as I lay there gazing at the sky
My body's numb and my throat is dry

And as I lay forgotten and alone
Without a tear I draw my parting groan

2. FEAR OF THE DARK (Live 2006)

I am a man who walks alone
And when I'm walking a dark road
At night or strolling through the park

When the light begins to change
I sometimes feel a little strange
A little anxious when it's dark.

Fear of the dark,fear of the dark
I have constant fear that something's always near

Fear of the dark,fear of the dark
I have a phobia that someone's always there

Have you run your fingers down the wall
And have you felt your neck skin crawl
When you're searching for the light ?

Sometimes when you're scared to take a look
At the corner of the room
You've sensed that something's watching you.

Have you ever been alone at night
Thought you heard footsteps behind

And turned around and no-one's there ?
And as you quicken up your pace

You find it hard to look again
Because you're sure there's someone there

Watching horror films the night before
Debating witches and folklore

The unknown troubles on your mind
Maybe your mind is playing tricks

You sense,and suddenly eyes fix
On dancing shadows from behind.

Fear of the dark, fear of the dark
I have a constant fear, thought you heard

Fear of the dark, fear of the dark
I have a phobia that someone's always there.

When I'm walking a dark road
I am a man who walks alone
