"Death Wake" lyrics - TONY IOMMI

[Chorus:]
There's a death wake in the sky
Buried souls that never die
From the dark, I feel them calling
As I breathe my final sigh

Eternal life is colder
And I'm outside the living light
Under the moon, I'll be hunting forever
The beast is out and my shadow takes flight
Scent of blood getting closer
The curse of a hunger in me
My insatiable thirst for the crimson on earth
Will put out the light in your eyes

[Instrumental break]

Once more, I cannot wait
Shape-shifting from the wolf that sealed your fate
I shudder as I turn away from dawn
I'm chained to the darkness
Branded by the Devil
Searching through oceans of time
Oh, I blame it on God for killing my heart
Tearless, my sorrow still cries

[Bridge:]
I'm longing for my only queen
See her face in the night
This lonely sadness won't compromise
How can I win this fight
With no one to love?

[Guitar Solo: Brian May]

[Bridge:]
Ah, ah, ah, ah
I'm falling through the prophecy
Only love can set me free, oh

[Chorus:]
There's a death wake in the sky
Buried souls that never die
In the dawn, an angel mourning
As I burn my final light
