[ Iron Maiden ]

ノ

I’ve been looking so long for you
Now you won’t get away from my grasp
You’ve been living so long in hiding
In hiding behind that false mask

And you know and I know
That you ain’t got that long to last
Your looks and your feelings
Are just the remains of your past

You’re standing in the wings
There you wait for the curtain to fall
Knowing the terror and holding
You have on us all

Yeah, I know that you’re gonna scratch me
And maim me and maul
And you know I’m helpless
From your mesmerizing cat call

Keep your distance, walk away
Don’t take his bait
Don’t you stray, don’t fade away

Watch your step, he’s out to get you
Come what may
Don’t you stray from the narrow way

I’m running and hiding
In my dreams you’re always there
You’re the Phantom of the Opera
You’re the devil, you’re just out to scare

You damaged my mind
And my soul it just floats through the air
You haunt me, you taunt me
You torture me back at your lair
