I Live You Die |
Your life passes you by, I live, you die |
The arena is mine, I live, you die |
Entry of the gladiators, 264 B. C |
The emperors and nobles have made a pawn of me |
I battle slaves and freemen and wild blood thirsty beasts |
The red sand surrounds me, so they can’t see them bleed |
Your life passes you by (I live you die) |
The Reaper is near |
Again the arena is mine (I live you die) |
I live you die |
Sword drawn and battle ready, Trajan in command |
Fight 'till death 100 days, corpses of 2000 men |
The masses they decide the fate of a fallen man |
Thumbs down in drunken haste, life’s taker and giver I am |
Innocent children dressed like the sacred lamb |
Taken for Nero’s slaughter, as the people look away |
To the pit dogs they are prey, the people look away… they look away… |
I live, you die! |
Persecuted Christians in the blood soaked ring |
Many over many lose their lives, peace to their soul it brings |
The thrills from the kills, those that I have slain |
Are keeping my heart pounding, I live another day |
Your live passes you by (I live you die) |
The Reaper is near |
Again the arena is mine (I live you die) |
I live again |
Your live passes you by (I live you die) |
The Reaper is near |
Again the arena is mine (I live you die) |
I live you die |
Die! |
Die! |
Die! |
