Looking Down the Cross (Live 1986 Denver, CO) - Megadeth (大屠杀)

Lyricist：Dave Mustaine

Composer：Dave Mustaine

Ohh

Now before they take me and my blessed life

Now you'll know why

Death was summoned here tonight

I'll recall my perils

They'll kill me in pride

No I can't run away

There's no place to hide

Ohh

Ohh

Too much to live for

I owe enough to die

Ask not for salvation

My death shall mean their lives

Hatred and guilt

The altar they've built

High priests of sin

Destiny

Fate

The wicked one's gate beckoning you in

Beckoning you in

Down the walkways

Through the blood stained town

Looking down the 'cross

Bleeding from the crown

Led to slay

To die beside the thieves

Kill the king

Of the world

To be

And now to you

And this will come

A putrefying pestilence

More noxious than the serpent's breath

Malevolently destined

More corrupt than the malice of Choronzon

More disease

Than the wind of the morning Sun

Putrefaction you have caused no need for confession

Now you wish you had a God to stop your demolition

Crushing the bones of the hundred folds

Swinging the judgement hammer

Man woman child no one is safe

The heads dead are the banner

This was all you got

So don't these broken wings

Sands of time run out

Bells of Hades ring

Is this a nightmare

To un hallow thy name

Smell of brimstone dancing in the flames

No help now

As you fulfill his task

Chief of evil

Has got you by the a**

Set free

To sit upon the throne

Just a dream

You're weeping all alone

Looking down the 'cross

Speak no evil

I'm looking down the 'cross

Speak no evil

Looking down the 'cross

Speak no evil

I'm looking down the 'cross

Speak no evil

Whoa
