Lyrics Iron Maiden

Iron Maiden

The Reincarnation of Benjamin Breeg

Let me tell you 'bout my life,

Let me tell you 'bout my dreams,

Let me tell you 'bout the things

that happen, always real to me.

Let me tell you of my hope,

of my need to reach the sky,

Let me take you on an awkward journey,

let me tell you why.

Let me tell you why.

Why should these curses be laid upon me?

I won't be forgiven 'til I can break free

What did I do to deserve all this guilt?

Paid for my sins, for the sale of my soul.

Demons are trapped all inside my head,

My hopes have gone, I reach for heaven from hell,

My sins are many, my guilt is too heavy,

The pressure of knowing of having what I know.

I'm able to see things, things I don't want to see,

The lives of a thousand souls weighing down on me.

I know they're crying for help reaching out

The burden of them will take me down as well

The sin of a thousand souls not died in vain

Reincarnates to let me live again

Someone to save me,

Something to save me from myself

To bring salvation

To exorcise this hell

Someone to save me,

Something to save me from myself

To bring salvation

To exorcise this hell

Someone to save me

Something to save me from my hell

I taste damnation

Awake from this nightmare

Someone to save me

Something to save me from myself

To bring salvation

To exorcise this hell
