Song lyrics Under the ice by Blind Guardian

Run
īTil you find the answer
Time out
For our poor Cassandra
Sheīs fairly safe inside the fire

Inside the fire
Awakes desire
Cruelly admired

Theyīll torture her soul
And theyīll torment her heart
But wonīt change her mind

Would you like to see me
How Iīll cut off
Her head lifeīs a game
A lesson to learn
Donīt be shy just blame me
Well, there is no
Need to feel ashamed
Remember the oath
Remember the oath

Wake up
Itīs time to cross the border
Is it true what they say
About the part youīve played?

Enjoy your stay here
Welcome to the slaughterhouse

Release from rotten thoughts
No more pain
And no more gods

Under the ice you will believe
Under the ice you will be free
Released from rotten thoughts
No more pain
And no more gods

Please understand
Itīs not in our hands
Barren the land
Itīs all dead and gone

And still the tyrantīs face is red
So witness my glory, my triumph, my fame
Itīs the sweetest taste

King of terror just stop wining
Hold your breath it wonīt take long
Realize this is your judgement day
In between the killing carry on

There are no rules here
Welcome to the slaughterhouse

Release from rotten thoughts
No more pain
And no more gods

Under the ice you will believe
Under the ice you will be free
Released from rotten thoughts
No more pain
And no more gods

Try to understand

Youīre the artificial enemy
An illusion we all need
For our sake
For our sake

Weīre not allowed to see beyond thatīs your skill
Will we ever learn the lesson "We canīt fly with broken wings"

Break the chains
Time to change
Iīm afraid to say but you wonīt play a part

Itīs been nice we now get to the climax
Your destinationīs unknown
Just get out of my way

Donīt mind the blood here
Welcome to the slaughterhouse

Release from rotten thoughts
No more pain
And no more gods

Under the ice you will believe
Under the ice you will be free
Released from rotten thoughts
No more pain
And no more gods

Under the ice you will be free
Released from rotten thoughts
No more pain
And no more gods
And no more gods
(No more gods)

Iīm afraid to say but you wonīt play a part
