Lyrics

[Verse 1] Once upon a time When you had us all in line Thought that we would never learn The word out on the street Was you never felt the heat Even when the fires burned Then the dogs of war Barking at your door Is it what it's all about? So, we broke the deal It's how it made us feel Drummer started on the shout On the shout, on the shout [Pre-Chorus] Heard a thousand drummers On a solitary light Heat of a thousand summers Explode into the night They hid behind the curtains Their faces were concealed A voice above the ashes screamed... "I want to make a deal I want to make a deal I want to make a deal" [Chorus] Hell raising, drums blazing All over but the shouting now Hell raising, drums blazing Careful what you wish for You may get it now Hell raising, drums blazing All over but the shouting now [Verse 2] The look upon your face When we blew it into space And let the pieces fall about Destruction on the ground The heart of freedom found In a voice could only shout The pain would go away The pride inside would stay The blood is dripping, you're alive The ones that stood and fell Were all remembered well The cross of an animal Animal, animal five [Pre-Chorus] Heard a thousand drummers On a solitary light Heat of a thousand summers Explode into the night They hid behind the curtains Their faces were concealed A voice above the ashes screamed... "I want to make a deal I want to make a deal I'm back on my heels" [Chorus] Hell raising, drums blazing All over but the shouting now Hell raising, drums blazing Careful what you wish for You may get it now Hell raising, drums blazing All over but the shouting now [Bridge 1] Cold calculation got them fall into line Annihilation got them working the shine They scream and shout All over but the [Bridge 2] Beat generation in a room full of war Evacuation as the stones hit the door They want out All over but the shout [Guitar Solo] [Verse 3] So, once upon a time When we lit the line Thought that we would never learn The word out on the street They melted in the heat Even when the fires burned Then the dogs of war Scratching at your door Is it what it's all about? So, we broke the deal So, we broke the deal Drummer started on the shout [Pre-Chorus] Heard a thousand drummers On a solitary light Heat of a thousand summers Explode into the night They hid behind the curtains Their faces were concealed A voice above the ashes screamed... "I want to make a deal I want to make a deal I'm back on my heels I want to make a deal" [Chorus] Hell raising, drums blazing All over but the shouting now Hell raising, drums blazing Careful what you wish for You may get it now Hell raising, drums blazing All over but the shouting now [Outro] "I want to make a deal"
