Lyrics The Mercenary - Iron Maiden

The Mercenary

Pay to kill, die to lose
Hunter, hunted, which are you?
Diablo, come again
To make trophies out of men
Lose your skin, lose your skull
One by one the sack is full
In the heat dehydrate
Know which breath will be your last
Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide
You’ve got to kill to stay alive
Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide
You’ve got to kill to stay alive
Show them no fear, show them no pain
Show them no fear, show them no pain
Show them no fear, show them no pain
Show them no fear, show them no pain
Human heart, human mind
Intellect intertwined
Focus snap in the night
Watch the jungle burning bright
Toe to toe, throw the line
Everyone’s caught hand tied
Iron will, iron fist
How could it have come to this?
Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide
You’ve got to kill to stay alive
Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide
You’ve got to kill to stay alive
Show them no fear, show them no pain
Show them no fear, show them no pain
Show them no fear, show them no pain
Show them no fear, show them no pain
Show them no fear, show them no pain
