The Number Of The Beast

"Woe to you, oh, earth and sea
For the devil sends the beast with wrath
Because he knows the time is short
Let him who hath understanding reckon
The number of the beast for it is a human number
It's number is six hundred and sixty six"

I left alone, my mind was blank
I needed time to think to get the memories from my mind

What did I see, can I believe?
That what I saw that night was real
And not just fantasy

Just what I saw, in my old dreams
Were they reflections of my warped mind staring back at me

'Cause in my dreams, it's always there
The evil face that twists my mind and brings me to despair
Yeah!

The night was black, was no use holding back
'Cause I just had to see, was someone
Watching me
In the mist, dark figures move and twist
Was all this for real, or just some kind of hell?

Six, six, six, the number of the beast
Hell and fire was spawned to be released

Torches blazed and sacred chants were praised
As they start to cry, hands held to the sky
In the night, the fires burning bright
The ritual has begun, satan's work is done

Six, six, six, the number of the beast
Sacrifice is going on tonight

This can't go on, I must inform the law
Can this still be real or just some crazy dream?
But I feel drawn towards the evil chanting hordes
They seem to mesmerize, can't avoid their eyes

Six, six, six, the number of the beast
Six, six, six, the one for you and me

I'm coming back, I will return
And I'll possess your body, and I'll make you burn
I have the fire, I have the force
I have the power to make my evil take its course
