Stratego

Taken from Iron Maiden’s 17th studio album, 'Senjutsu' coming September 3rd.

How do you read a madman’s mind Teach me the art of war For I shall bring more Than you bargained for Give me an ultimatum That I could not dream of Spills of a crying nation Upon my soul For I have not a mortal soul That you already know Look at my eyes There’s no surprise Ocean is black the devil’s track Looking beyond beneath the sea Eye of the storm is here again Been there before you were ever born Beyond the dark I feel the pain It’s hidden but I can’t explain A cross to bear A heavy faith My sorrow whispers Time again I hear you calling my name Come to claim my life again Pray for me I’m almost there The pain almost too much to bear I try to find my way back home To feel the same again The voice of nothing Listened far too long Little by little eat away I think I’ve lost my mind Too late to change now What I left behind Hear me listen my call I am ready to fall Lord hear me now – let me go Ocean is black the devil’s track Looking beyond beneath the sea Eye of the storm is here again Been there before you were ever born Beyond the dark I feel the pain It’s hidden but I can’t explain A cross to bear A heavy faith My sorrow whispers Time again
