1. King In Crimson
[Bruce Dickinson / Roy Z.]
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
Daylight has come

The night has come
See his twisted sons and daughters

Writhing slowly in Satan's mire
If you only could see the visions
The trembling world I now despise
As the veil reveals the outer darkness

I am sucked into the walls of flame
Arise, awake
The King in Crimson comes
Arise awake
The King in Crimson, crimson comes

He knows the weakness that you can't fight
The stone of night that weighs you down
If only you could see the visions
His hand is death if you take it now
As you scream into the web of silence

BRUCE DICKINSON LYRICS - Chemical Wedding (1998) http://www.darklyrics.com/lyrics/brucedickinson/chemicalwedding.html#5
There is nothing that can save you now
Arise, awake
Arise, awake
Arise, awake
Arise, awake

As you scream into the web of silence
There is nothing that can save you now
Arise, awake
Arise, awake
Arise, awake
To your window he comes
At your window I come
2. Chemical Wedding
How happy is the human soul

Not enslaved by dull control
Left to dream and roam and play
Shed the guilt of former days
Walking on the foggy shore

Watch the waves come rolling home
Through the veil of pale moonlight
My shadow stretches out its hand
And so we lay, we lay in the same grave
Our chemical wedding day
2 of 15 27.12.2006 22:39

Floating in the endless blue
My seed of doubt I leave to you
Let it wither on the ground
Treat it like a plague you found
All my dreams that were outside

In living colour, now alive
And all the lighthouses
Their beams converge to guide me home
Our Chemical wedding day
3. The Tower
There are twelve commandments

There are twelve divisions
Twelve are the pagans who have mapped the sky
In the outer circle

To the inner sanctum
From the octave at the end of time
The fountain, the trinity

The pilgrim is searching for blood
To look for his own free will
The stone of infinity, washed in the flood
3 of 15 27.12.2006 22:39
Lovers in the tower
The moon and sun divided
And the hanged man smiles
Lovers in the tower
Let the fool decide

In the atom circle
Where we break the stars
Hammer into anvil, stuffing out the sun
Witness all the killing

See the birth of Mars
Our religion thrown into the fire
The fountain, the trinity

The pilgrim is searching for blood
To look for his own free will
The stone of infinity, washed in the flood
Lovers in the tower
The hanged man smiles
Lovers in the tower
The magician laughs
Lovers in the tower
And the priestess kneels
Lovers in the tower
Let the fool decide
Lovers in the tower
And the hanged man smiles
Lovers in the tower
4 of 15 27.12.2006 22:39
Let the fool decide
Lovers in the tower
The priestess kneels to receive
Lovers in the tower
The magician laughs
4. Killing Floor
[Bruce Dickinson / Adrian Smith]
So this is dreamtime, and all is quiet

So this is dreamtime, and all is night
You've never been held by the hand of God
Who's rocking the cradle, if he is not?
He turned the oil into his blood

Panzer divisions burning in the mud
The stain of freedom, he's washed it out
Who's rocking the cradle, I have no doubt
Sleeping eyes awake

To see his hooded gaze
Whispers on the wind
The darker side of ecstasy
Satan has left his killing floor
Satan, his fires burn no more

So now it's dreamtime for you tonight
So now it's dreamtime, and all is quiet
You've never been held by the hand of god
Who's rocking your cradle, if he is not?
Sleeping eyes awake

To see his hooded gaze
Whispers on the wind
The never-ending breath goodbye
5 of 15 27.12.2006 22:39
Satan, his fires burn no more
Satan is coming back for more

5. Book Of Thel
[Bruce Dickinson / Roy Z. / Eddie Casillas]
The mark is on you now

The furnace sealed inside your head
Melting from the inside now
Waxy tears run down your face
The whore that never told her tale

Relives it every night with you
Far off stands the lamb and waits
For the wolf to come and end its life
Stand inside the temple

As the book of Thel is opening
The priestess stands before you
Offering her hand out, she's rising
Come the dawning of the dead

In famine and in war
Now the harlot womb of death
Spits out its rotten core
Serpent on the altar now

Has wrapped itself around your spine
So you look into its mouth
And you kiss the pearly fangs divine
Happy that your end is swift

The weeping virgin cries in bliss
The snake and priestess, they are one
The veil of flesh is ripped undone


6 of 15 27.12.2006 22:39
By the pricking of my thumbs

Something wicked this way comes
And when sleep takes you tonight
Will you wake to see the light...?
The burning sweat of poison tears

The river flowing red with blood
The cradle-robbing hand of death
Caresses every dreaming head
Waiting for the marriage hearse

To take you to the funeral pyre
So you burn the family tree
The generations burning higher


By the pricking of my thumbs

Something wicked this way comes
And when sleep takes you tonight
Will you wake to see the light
By the dawning of the dead...

What demon hath formed this abominable void...

This soul-shuddering vacuum?
Some said it is Urizen -
But unknown, abstracted, brooding secret
The dark power hid
6. Gates Of Urizen
As above, so below
All things come from the one
Now you are the victim
Carried by the wind, rooted in the ground
If you want to learn the secrets

Close your eyes
The ladder falls away
7 of 15 27.12.2006 22:39
At the gates of Urizen
Fallen eagles blaze
Eternal twins are damned
Separate lives begin

In every woman is a man
From the moon come silver ghosts
Spectres of the blood
From my spirit comes the darkness
From the void, the crimson fortress rises
Fallen eagles blaze
Fallen eagles blaze
The gates of Urizen
The gates of Urizen
8 of 15 27.12.2006 22:39
At the gates...
7. Jerusalem
And did those feet in ancient times

Walk upon England's mountains green?
Was the holy lamb of god
On England's pleasant pastures seen?
And did the countenance divine

Shine forth on our clouded hill?
Was Jerusalem built here
In England's green and pleasant land?
Let it rain
Let it rain
Wash the scales from my eyes
Let it rain
Let it rain
Let me see again...
Bring me my bow of burning gold

Bring me my arrows of desire
I shall not sleep till the clouds unfold
Bring me my chariot of fire
Let it rain
Let it rain
Tears of blood fall out of the sky
Let it rain
Let it rain
Wash me clean again...
From the frozen waters

The king will rise again
With two suns in the sky...
I shall not cease from mental flight

Nor shall my sword sleep in my hand
Till we have built Jerusalem
In England's green and pleasant land
Let it rain
Let it rain
Tears of blood fall out of the sky
Let it rain
Let it rain
Wash me clean again...
See the gleaming spires of the citadel

The king and queen will dwell
In our hearts...
9 of 15 27.12.2006 22:39
Can Jerusalem be rebuilded here

In this trivial time, in this land of fear?
In Jerusalem, where the grail remains
Walk into the light and dissolve the chains
Jerusalem...
Here is her secret place

From hence she comes forth on the churches in delight
Here is her cup, filled with its poisons
In these horrid veils
And here, her scarlet veil, woven in pestilence and war
Here is Jerusalem, bound in chains
In the dense of Babylon...
8. Trumpets Of Jericho
This is the maze of life

This is the maze of death
This is the matrix of eternity
The demon never sleeps

The demon never lies
He beats my heart and leaves no echo
What heavy burden holds me back

Every step along the track?
Fear that reaches deep inside of me
At the trumpets of Jericho
Still the walls remain
Avalon's in chains
This is the river of space
This is the river of time
Chase the dragons of infinity
Atlas stands and laughs

Throws his burden down
Rolls the earth in the inferno
Fingers holding onto cracks

The howling wind that blows us back
Sucked into the grinding wheels of hell
10 of 15 27.12.2006 22:39
Blow the trumpets of Jericho
At the end of the rainbow
There the grail remains
Sound the trumpets of Jericho
Avalon's in chains
As they drag you down
In your clothes of lead
See the golden light
Flashing overhead
Mocking you
Do you know who you are

In your robes of skin?
How many creatures live inside you?
Man is born forever free

But is everywhere in chains
Trapped inside this earthly prison cell
Avalon's in chains
There the grail remains
The silence of the tomb
The wheel of fortune round
9. Machine Men
11 of 15 27.12.2006 22:39
Bring the toys out for the boys

Let the children make their noise
See the monsters in their metal cages
Turn the lights down in your soul

Cut the power to your heart
See the carcass in its dying rages
Machine men, cannibals of rust
Machine men, iron bites the dust
Machine men, built with feet of clay
Are coming to sweep you all away

What bitter vampire made you this?
Gave you life with its deathly kiss
Ground your limbs to bloody stew
Made a new machine of you
Turned a nightmare into day

Sucks your breath, takes your life away
Beating harder through your veins
Someone else's cold remains

Are coming to sweep you all away
They're coming to sweep you all away
Are coming to take you all away
Are coming to take you all away
They're coming to sweep you all away

Iron - in the soul
12 of 15 27.12.2006 22:39
10. The Alchemist
Wash away the blackness with the silver rain

Don't turn away - don't turn away
Wash away the blackness with the silver rain
Don't turn away - don't try to hide...
Sulphurous and burning, spitting out the sun

The beginning of creation, of the golden one
A window to the west, a blazing star above
In Taurus we begin it and the ladder has begun
Don't try and blame me for your sins

For the sun has burned me black
Your hollow lives - this world in which we live
I throw it back
Four-headed dragon for the four degrees of fire

Purify the insane, bring the solution ever higher
Bring me all the elements, spread them round my head
Bring me mad men's bodies, I will break them all like bread

I hurl it back

I throw it back
Don't try and blame me for your games

Your games are death
My world is light - the angels fill my eyes
With every breath...
And so we lay
We lay in the same grave
And so we lay
And so we lay
And so we lay
Our chemical wedding day...
13 of 15 27.12.2006 22:39
And all this vegetable world appeared on my left foot

As a bright sandal, formed immortal of precious stones and gold
I stooped down, and bound it on
To walk forward through eternity...
11. Return Of The King
[Japan-only bonus track]

A 100 years of toil and pain

To pull a stone upright again
Uproot from its mountain home
Taken to this sacred circle
Is there a secret in the stone?

A message in the hills
Is there a secret in the stones?
A message long ago
I know the king will come again
From the shadow to the sun
Burning hillsides from the beltane fires
When all that glitters turn to rust
Uther pendragon standing fast beside you

The sun the moon we worshipped here
A calendar of fear
Gazing across the channel sea
To see the beacons burning brightly
Is that a shadow on the hill?

Or a phantom in the mere
What is the meaning of these stones?
Why do they stand alone?
Burning hillsides with the beltane fires

Is that a shadow on the hill?
Or a phantom in the mere
14 of 15 27.12.2006 22:39
What is the meaning of these stones?

Why do they stand alone?
Burning hillsides with the beltane fires

In the darkness, the raven's head

Daylight has come

See his twisted sons and daughters

As the veil reveals the outer darkness

The King in Crimson comes

The King in Crimson, crimson comes

As you scream into the web of silence

There is nothing that can save you now

The King in Crimson comes

The King in Crimson comes

The King in Crimson comes

The King in Crimson, crimson comes

The King in Crimson comes

The King in Crimson comes

The King in Crimson, crimson comes

To your window he comes

At your window I come

[Bruce Dickinson / Roy Z.]

How happy is the human soul

Walking on the foggy shore

And so we lay, we lay in the same grave

Our chemical wedding day

And so we lay, we lay in the same grave

Our chemical wedding day

All my dreams that were outside

And so we lay, we lay in the same grave

Our chemical wedding day

And so we lay, we lay in the same grave

Our chemical wedding day

And so we lay, we lay in the same grave

Our chemical wedding day

And so we lay, we lay in the same grave

Our chemical wedding day

And so we lay, we lay in the same grave

Our chemical wedding day

And so we lay, we lay in the same grave

Our Chemical wedding day

Lovers in the tower

The magician laughs

Lovers in the tower

The moon and sun divided

And the priestess kneels

Lovers in the tower
