Judas Priest - Dying to Meet You Lyrics


Came in this morning

High on a birds wing

Quite open-minded

But still quite aware

Followed the sunrise

Right through from dawning

Picking out landmarks

That said I was there

Led to positions

By stern faced leaders

Who never let one smile

Depart from their face

Then with an armraise

The slaughter is started

One or two crack up

And start to cry

Selfishness breeds in

This cesspool of sorrow

Every few moments

I see a friend die

Synchronized watches

Flash in the sunlight

As into the battle

We all are led

Killer, killer

Keep your thoughts at bay

Maiming, destroying

Every single day

Is this the way

That you get your fun

Slaying, waylaying

In the heat of the midday sun

Get out, get out

Go and do your job

Rape and pillage

Squander all and rob

You make me sick

Getting paid for murder

You wouldn't lay a finger on your mother, oh no

You never ever dream to hurt her

Hero, hero

You have done so well

So sit back and lick your wounds

Cause you won't go to hell

Take your medal

Wear it now with pride

Consolation for the pain

And sin you feel inside
