Starblind

Iron Maiden

Take my eyes the things I've seen 
In this world coming to an end 
My reflection fades I'm weary 
Of these earthly bones and skin 

You may pass through me and 
Leave no trace I have no mortal face 
Solar winds are whispering you may hear me call 

We can shed our skins and swim into the darkened void beyond 
We will dance among the world 
That orbit stars that aren't our sun 

All the oxygen that trapped us in 
A carbon spider's web 
Solar winds are whispering you may hear the sirens of the dead 
Let the elders to their parley 
Meant to satisfy our lust 
Leaving Damacles still handing over all their promised trust 

Walk away from freedoms offered 
By the jailors in their cage 
Step into the light startripping 
Over mortals in their rage 

Starblind with the sun the stars are one 
We are the light that brings the end of night 
Starblind with the sun the stars are one 
We are with the Goddess of the sun tonight 

The preacher loses face with Christ 
Religion's cruel device is gone 
Empty flesh and hollow bones 
Make pacts of love but die alone 
The crucible of pain will forge the 
Blanks of sin begin again 
You are free to choose a life to live 
Or one that's left to lose 

Virgins in the teeth of God are 
Meat and drink to feed the damned 
You may pass through me and I 
Will feel the life that you live less 
Step into my light startripping 
We will rage against the night 

Walk away from comfort offered 
By your citizens of death 

Starblind with the sun the stars are one 
We are the light that brings the end of night 
Starblind with the sun the stars are one 
We are one with the Goddess of the sun tonight 

Take my eyes for what I've seen 
I will give my sight to you 
You are free to choose whatever 
Life to live or life to lose 

Whatever God you know 
He knows you better than you 
Believe 
In your once and future grave 
You'll fall endlessly deceived 

Look into your face reflected in the 
Moonglow in your eyes 
Remember you can choose 
To look but not to see and waste your hours 

You believe you have the time 
But I tell you your time is short 
See your past and future all the 
Same and it cannot be bought 

Starblind with the sun the stars are one 
We are the light that brings the end of night 
Starblind with the sun the stars are one 
We are with the Goddess of the sun tonight 

Take my eyes for what I've seen 
I will give my sight to you 
You are free to choose whatever 
Life to live or life to lose 
Whatever God you know 
He knows you better than you 
Believe 
In your once and future grave 
You'll fall endlessly deceived 

The preacher loses face with Christ 
Religion's cruel device is gone 
Empty flesh and hollow bones 
Make pacts of love but die alone 
The crucible of pain will forge the 
Blanks of sin begin again 
You are free to choose a life to live 
Or one that's left to lose
