Текст песни Iron Maiden - The Book Of Souls

Текст:

Sacrifices buried with kings Accompany them on a journey with no end To an afterlife that’s rich with fruit of all the gods and to face the demons Of their underworld haunts The sentient is sent to seek out all the truth A flight to earth that is a given from his birth To rise from ashes of the dead Out of the fire is sent to fulfil man’s desire By power day and night and death he ruled them The sky and earth and the fires too Two headed reptile symbol of his reign Universes of the underworld A life that’s full of all the wealth and riches Can never last for an eternity After living in a golden paradise The ultimate sacrifice Prophecy of sky gods, the sun and moon Passing of old ways will come true soon Falling of ages, forest of kings The search for the truth, the book of souls The rulers of planets and stars The power of the kings of traders and the wars Planetary cycles and the phases of the moon Is in the document a kingdom they will learn They were praying to the gods of nature And were living in the cities of stone Towers reaching upward to the heavens Sacred wonders for the world unknown Make their lives be a mystery no more Records kept and the passing of laws Sacred gods to the book of lies When a civilization dies Prophecy of sky gods The sun and moon Passing of old ways will come true soon Falling of ages Forest of kings The lost book of souls, destruction begins Ascending the throne wearing feathers and shells He brought back their lives from the void Alien invasion brings nothing but death Mass exodus and plant life destroyed Domain of the earth to the journey of truth The underworld caves mayan slaves Defeat of the dark lords The ultimate proof In the place where the ancestors rule The book of souls
