Judas rising

(Tipton/Halford/Downing)

White bolts of lightning
Came out of nowhere
Blinded the darkness
Creating the storm

War in the heavens
Vengeance ignited
Torment and tempest
Attacks like a swarm

Forged out of flame
From chaos to destiny
Bringer of pain
Forever undying

Judas is rising

Eternal betrayer
Ice cold and evil
Taking no prisoners
Dark prince of the world

Humanity trembles
Enslaved sinners
You can't beg for mercy
For none will be saved

The burden of sin
Echoes the prophecy
Ascending from hell
Forever despising

Judas is rising

Repentance revealed
The seekers are crying
By crucified steel
Evangelising

Judas is rising
Judas is rising



Deal with the devil

(Tipton/Halford/Downing/Ramirez)

Forged in the black country
Under blood red skies
We all had our dream to realize

Driving in the transit
Down to Holy Joe's
Used to lose our heads while metal flowed

Nothing held us back or dared to try
Something in our blood won't let us die
We built our world of metal, watched it grow
Fueled the fury, solid to the bone

Gotta deal with the devil
'Cause you know that's it's real
Gotta deal with the devil
From a heart made of steel

Rolling down the M-way
Took it to the smoke
Banging heads there 'till we all went broke

When we don the leather
And the whips and chains
Nothing matters more, we can't be tamed

Fighting through the din and allocades
Turn the phase around with razorblades
Watch the movement grow into one voice
Took on the whole world, it had no choice

Gotta deal with the devil
'Cause you know that's it's real
Gotta deal with the devil
From a heart made of steel

And late at night there ain't a sight
That we can feel what we've been waiting for
Let me hear you roar

Upon this stage, let it rage
It comes a time we leave the world behind
To be with our own kind

Gotta deal with the devil
'Cause you know that's it's real
Gotta deal with the devil
From a heart made of steel

Gotta deal with the devil
'Cause you know that's it's real
Gotta deal with the devil
From a heart made of steel



Revolution

(Tipton/Halford/Downing)

If you think it's over better think again
There'll be no compromise
Time to hit the power, feel adrenaline
Move into overdrive

Here comes the revolution
Time for retribution

If you think I'll back down or accept defeat
Brace for the aftershock
Take it to the limit, take it to the streets
Give it everything you've got

Here comes the revolution
Time for retribution

Time to come together
Revolution
Living on forever
Revolution

Get ready for the revolution!

Here comes the revolution
Time for retribution
Here comes the revolution
Time for retribution

Here comes the revolution
Time for retribution
Here comes the revolution
Time for retribution

It's a revolution
It's a retribution
Something's in the air
Time to change, it's time to change

You better watch out tonight
You better watch out for the revolution



Worth fighting for

(Tipton/Halford/Downing)

You said I could never find
A way to ease your mind
But where I go you wind up in the dust

I tried so hard to have you reach
Another side of me
Instead you went to nowhere and forgot

So I wander on
Asking where you might have gone
From what I knew before
Some things are worth fighting for

Desert heat can wear you down
But still I'm rolling through
Did I see your figure in the haze?

I am driven by a thirst
To quench myself of love
The song beats on me for the price I pay

So I wander on
Asking where you might have gone
From what I knew before
Some things are worth fighting for

My road leads me
To a town of ghosts
I'm beckoned by the glow
Of jealousy and tumbleweed

They're calling out forevermore
Worth fighting for

I'm living in the wind
And bow down from what I saw
My shadow for a friend
Still some things are worth fighting for

So I'm moving on
Asking where you might have gone
From what I knew before
Some things are worth fighting for

Worth fighting for



Demonizer

(Tipton/Halford/Downing)

Born of the sun
Crashed to the earth
Tormented reviled
Engourged hate from birth

Hellion's the steed
Blood's on the wing
Claws set to slice
Vengeance he'll bring

Cremating the land
In seek and destroy
Apocalypse slays
Napalm he'll deploy

The beast of the God
Regaled of his race
Prepare to onslaught
And bare face to face

Across the divide
The threshold's in flames
The painkiller rises again

The scream of the demon
There's evil about
They've come to possess us
Out, demons, out!

Blade of the wheel
Cuts deep in the bone
It's Gideon's quest 
To take Satan's throne

The critical mass
And power that they wield
Exterminates all
When vermin rebel

A maelstrom begins
To disintegrate
And pulverize all in its wake

The scream of the demon
There's evil about
They come to possess us
Out, demons, out!

The scream of the demon
There's evil about
They come to possess us
Out, demons, out!

Demonizer
Out, out, out, demons, out!
Demonizer
Out, out, out, demons, out!

Demonizer
Out, out, out, demons, out!
Demonizer
Out, out, out, demons, out!

Demons, out!



Wheels of fire

(Tipton/Halford/Downing)

Born on the other side
Of the track
Gotta get outta here
I won't look back

Born on the other side
Wild as a hurricane
Living in overdrive

Wheels of fire in my soul
Wheels of fire
Wheels of fire
Let'em roll!

Too fast to give a damn
Stand my ground
No one or anything
Can tie me down

Born on the other side
Wild as a hurricane
Living in overdrive

Wheels of fire in my soul
Wheels of fire
Wheels of fire
Let'em roll!

Ride to live
Live to ride
Wheels of fire
Forever

Born on the other side
Wild as a hurricane
Living in overdrive

Wheels of fire in my soul
Wheels of fire
Wheels of fire
Let'em roll!

Wheels of fire
Wheels of fire
Wheels of fire
Wheels of fire



Angel

(Tipton/Halford/Downing)

Angel, put sad wings around me now
Protect me from this world of sin
So that we can rise again

Oh, angel, we can find our way somehow
Escaping from the world we're in
To a place where we began

And I know we'll find
A better place and peace of mind
Just tell me that it's all you want
For you and me

Angel, won't you set me free?

Angel, remember how we chased the sun?
Then reaching for the stars at night
As our lives had just begun

When I close my eyes
I hear your velvet wings and cry
I'm waiting here with open arms
Oh, can't you see?

Angel, shine your light on me

Angel, we'll meet once more, I'll pray
When all my sins are washed away
Hold me inside your wings and stay
Angel, take me far away

Put sad wings around me now
Angel, take me far away
Put sad wings around me now
So that we can rise again

Put sad wings around me now
Angel, take me far away
Put sad wings around me now
So that we can rise again



Hellrider

(Tipton/Halford/Downing)

Here they come, these gods of steel
Megatron, devouring what's concealed
Speed of death, crossfired they stare
Find no breath from vapourising glares

Raised to man oppressed
Sign of persecution

Hellrider
Roars on through the night
Hellrider
Raised for the fight

All insensed to overthrow
Strong defense with armanents they grow
By this quest they face you now
Put to rest, abominations grow

Time to ram it down
Judgement for the tyrant

Hellrider
Rocks in the night
Hellrider
Raised for the fight

Fight undying and eternal
Wheels brings death and pain infernal
Honor bound, your strength depleated
To your end they're undefeated

Hellrider, hellrider
You fought their battle for them
Hellrider, hellrider
You brought them through their despair

Hellrider, hellrider
Your tempered steel relinquished
Hellrider, hellrider
You swarm them all extinguished

Wrath of doom in killing fields
They consume, their valiance never yields

Triumph to the gods
Vanquished of enslavers

Hellrider
Breaking their will
Hellrider
Aim for the kill

Hellrider, hellrider
You fought their battle for them
Hellrider, hellrider
You brought them through it all

Hellrider



Eulogy

(Tipton/Halford/Downing)

And so now it comes to pass
By the even tide of mass
See them gather yet alas
They remain still as stained class

For they know only too well
That the story they will tell
Conjures up an ageless spell
Guarded by the sentinel

So it goes forever more
Ever steady to the core
That the sign that they came for
Waves majestic from the floor



Lochness

(Tipton/Halford/Downing)

Grey mist drifts upon the water
The mirrored surface moves
Awakened of this presence
Dispelling legends proof

A beastly head of onyx
With eyes set coals of fire
It's leathered hide glides glistening
Ascends the heathered briar

This legend lives through centuries
Evoking history's memories
Prevailing in eternities
On and on and on

Lochness - confess your terror of the deep
Lochness - distress malingers what you keep
Lochness - protects monstrosity
Lochness - confess to me

Somehow it heeds the piper
From battlements that call
From side to side it ponders
In passion in the skirl

This highland's lair of mystery
Retains a lost world's empathy
Resilient to discovery
On and on and on

Lochness - confess your terror of the deep
Lochness - distress malingers what you keep
Lochness - grotesque monstrosity
Lochness - confess to me

This legend lives through centuries
This legend lives through centuries
Evoking history's memories
Evoking history's memories

Prevailing in eternity
Prevailing in eternity
Your secret lies safe with me
Your secret lies safe with me

This creature's peril from decease
Implores to mankind for release
A legecy to rest in peace
On and on and on

Lochness - confess your terror of the deep
Lochness - distress malingers what you keep
Lochness - grotesque monstrosity
Lochness - confess to me
