King in Crimson

Lyrics

[Verse 1] In the darkness, the raven's head In the courtyard clothed in fear I see gates that are opening There's only one way out of here [Pre-Chorus] Daylight has gone The night has come [Verse 2] See his twisted sons and daughters Writhing slowly in Satan's mire If you only could see the visions Trembling world I now despise [Pre-Chorus] As the veil reveals the outer darkness I am sucked into the halls of flame [Chorus] Arise, awake The king in crimson comes Arise, awake The king in crimson, crimson comes [Verse 3] He knows the weakness That you can't fight The stone of night That weighs you down If you only could see the visions His hand is death if you take it now [Pre-Chorus] As you scream into the web of silence There is nothing that can save you now [Chorus] Arise, awake The king in crimson comes Arise, awake The king in crimson comes Arise, awake The king in crimson comes Arise, awake The king in crimson, crimson comes [Instrumental Break] [Guitar Solo - Roy Z] [Guitar Solo - Adrian Smith] [Pre-Chorus] As you scream into the web of silence There is nothing that can save you now [Chorus] Arise, awake The king in crimson comes Arise, awake The king in crimson comes Arise, awake The king in crimson comes Arise, awake The king in crimson, crimson comes [Outro] To your window I come At your window I come
