Mother of Mercy

Iron Maiden

Sitting waiting in the falling rain 
Getting ready to begin again 

Wounded lying crying 
Bodies moving dying 
All around there is the smell 
Of death and fire 

Here the planes are coming 
Hear the soldiers running 
Killing on a scale to comprehend 

Why are we here 
In this place... here to kill 
Please God forgive us for 
what we have done 

I always though I was doing right 
As of now I'm not feeling so sure 

I'm at a place of where 
I give no grace 
I'm a soldier of war 

I sit waiting for my darkest hour 
To come 
I cannot think about the things 
That I have done 
It shouldn't take a fool to see 
That I believe 
Accept the consequence 
Repent for what I've done 

You tell me what is certain 
But I'll tell you what is true 
You tell me what is honesty 
When all around is death and cruelty 

The making of a man is fire 
Not giving in to our desires 
Within the truth that lies 
Within the only thing 

Mother Of Mercy 
Angel of death desire 
Mother Of Mercy 
Taking my last breath of fire 

Mother Of Mercy 
Angel of pain 
Mother Of Mercy 
Taking my last breath 

Some say you are a lost cause 
Some say you're a Saint 
Just being here's an act of 
Suffering and restraint 

Walk down the long dark road 
To ruin panic not 
I'll die a lonely death of that 
I'm certain of 

Rivers flow with blood 
There's nowhere left to hide 
It's hard to comprehend 
There's anyone left alive 

Sick of all the killing 
And the reek of death 
Will God tel me 
What religion is to man 

I don't hold with bad religion 
Understand what's underneath it 
Now I come to think of it 
I just don't hold at all you know it 

You say you are a holy man 
But what is it you do 
From where I stand is nothing 
But a hollow man I see 

Mother Of Mercy 
Angel of death desire 
Mother Of Mercy 
Taking my last breath of fire 

Mother Of Mercy 
Angel of pain 
Mother Of Mercy 
Taking my last breath 

I'm just a lonely soldier fighting 
In a bloody hopeless war 
Don't know what I'm fighting 
Who it is or what I'm fighting for 

Thought it was for money 
Make my fortune now I'm not 
So sure 
Seem to just have lost my way
