[00:02.86] Artist:iron maiden
[00:05.23] Songs Title:the legacy
[00:09.41]
[00:20.64] Tell you a thing
[00:22.76] That yoy ought to know
[00:25.26] Two minutes of your time
[00:27.69] Then on you go
[00:29.88] Tell tale of the men
[00:32.37] All dressed in black
[00:35.24] That most of them
[00:37.49] Not coming back
[00:40.30] Sent off to war
[00:42.73] To play little games
[00:45.35] And on their return
[00:47.91] Can't name no names
[00:50.28] Some strange yellow gas
[00:52.84] Has played with their minds
[00:55.09] Has reddened their eyes
[00:58.52] Removed all the lies
[01:00.33] And strange as it sounds
[01:02.95] Death know no bounds
[01:05.26] How many get well
[01:07.75] Only time will tell
[01:12.18]
[01:28.28] Only time will tell
[01:31.15]
[01:35.34] ......
[01:42.32]
[03:22.16] You lie in your death bed now
[03:24.54] But what did you bring to the table
[03:26.91] Brought us only holy sin
[03:29.34] Utter trust is a deadly thing
[03:32.09] The prayer of holy peace
[03:34.96] We didn't know what was lying underneath
[03:38.01] So how could we be such fools
[03:40.64] And to think that we thought you the answer
[03:45.07] I can't begin understand in all the lies
[03:50.31] But on your death bed I can see it in your eyes
[03:55.30] Just as clear as all the sweat upon your brow
[04:01.23] It really makse sense I can see it clearly now
[04:05.28] Tangled up in a web of lies
[04:07.97] Could have been a way to prophesise
[04:10.65] Unaware of the consequence
[04:12.90] Not aware if the secrets that you kept
[04:16.02] Nothing that we could believe
[04:18.45] To reveal facade of faceless man
[04:21.57] Not a thing that we could foresee
[04:24.25] Now a sign that would tell us the outcome
[04:28.68] You had us all strung out with
[04:30.87] promises of peace
[04:32.55] But all along your cover plan was to deceive
[04:35.85]
[04:39.35] Can it put to rights now only time will tell
[04:44.34] Your prophecies will send us all to hell as well
[04:48.40] Let toa ll our golden sons
[04:50.83] All to pick up on the peace
[04:53.43] You could have given all of them
[04:56.12] A little chance ... at least
[04:58.86] Take the world to a better place
[05:01.42] Give them all just a little hope
[05:04.17] Just think what a legacy
[05:06.79] You know ... will leave
[05:09.22]
[05:13.34] ......
[05:14.34]
[06:43.51] We seem destined to live in fear
[06:46.00] And some that would ssay Armageddon is near
[06:49.37] But where there's a life while there's hope
[06:52.49] That man won't self destruct
[06:54.12] Why can't we treat our fellow men
[06:58.92] With more respect and shake of their hands
[07:02.92] But anger and loathing is rife
[07:05.41] The death on all side is
[07:07.47] becoming a way of life
[07:09.40] We live in an uncerain world
[07:11.59] Fear understanding and ingorance
[07:14.77] is leading to death
[07:17.14] Only the corpses are left
[07:19.20] For vultures that prey on their bones
[07:22.32]
[07:35.30] But some are just not wanting peace
[07:37.67] Their whole life is death and misery
[07:40.23] The only thing that they know
[07:43.79] Fight fire with fire life is cheap
[07:47.84] But if they do stop to think
[07:50.46] That man is teetering right on the brink
[07:53.52] But do you think that they care
[07:56.64] They benefit from the death and pain and despair
