Cliff Burton - Phantom Lord lyrics

[Verse 1] Sound is ripping through your ears The deafening sound of metal nears Your bodies waiting for his whips The taste of leather on your lips [Chorus] Hear the cry of war Louder than before With his sword in hand To control the land Crushing metal strikes On this frightening night Fall on to your knees For the phantom lord [Verse 2] Victims falling under chains You hear them them crying dying pains The fist of terrors breaking through Now there's nothing you can do [Chorus] Hear the cry of war Louder than before With his sword in hand To control the land Crushing metal strikes On this frightening night Fall on to your knees For the phantom lord [Verse 3] The leathered armies have prevailed The phantom lord has never failed Smoke is lifting from the ground The rising volume metal sound [Chorus] Hear the cry of war Louder than before With his sword in hand To control the land Crushing metal strikes On this frightening night Fall on to your knees For the phantom lord [Outro] Fall to your knees And bow to the phantom lord
