Paroles de Beyond the Stairs

A living God amongst men stands alone For an entire year I've been revered They're worshipping my name and praise my soul They hope my death will bring them strength Was chosen by the priests to give my blood And feed the sun or bring the rain A lonely child is laying on the deadly stone A lonely child will die in vain Beyond the stairs the end awaits (the sacred sword swoops down on you) They chant my name until I pass away (the sacred sword swoops down on you) So now the hour has come for me to go To give my heart and save the day The completion of my fate leads me to The gate of death , the realm of slaves The spirits gone before me lead my steps Towards the stone where I'll be slain The flame of life will shine on in your gaze If you see my soul fly away Beyond the stairs the end awaits (the sacred sword swoops down on you) They chant my name until I pass away (the sacred sword swoops down on you) Beyond the stairs the end awaits (the sacred sword swoops down on you) They chant my name until I pass away (the sacred sword swoops down on you)
