Judas Priest — Dying to Meet You

[Verse 1] Came in this morning high on a bird's wing Wide open-minded, but still quite aware Followed the sunrise right through from dawning Picking out landmarks that said I was there Lead to positions by stern-faced leaders Who never let one smile depart from their face [Verse 2] Then with an arm raised the slaughter is started One or two crack up and start to cry A selfishness breeds in this cesspool of sorrow And every few moments I see a friend die Synchronized watches flash in the sunlight As into the battle, we are all led [Verse 3] Killer, killer, you keep your thoughts at bay Maiming, destroying every single day Is this the way that you get your fun Slaying, waylaying in the heat of the midday sun Get out, get out, go and do your job Rape and pillage, squander all and rob You make me sick getting paid for murder But you wouldn't lay a finger on your mother, oh, no You'll never ever dream to hurt her [Guitar Solo] [Verse 4] Hero, hero, you have done so well So sit back and lick your wounds Because you won't go to hell Take your medal, wear it now with pride Consolation for the pain and sin you feel inside
