É o medo, ali mesmo Cá dentro estão os homens á espera Unidos no destino da terra Já não há memória de paz na terra É o medo, ali mesmo Ó terra, Mais um dia a nascer Ai, é menos um dia a morrer É tão pouca a gloria duma guerra E os homens que as fazem sem vitorias Já não há memória, de paz na terra É o medo, ali mesmo Outside I hear the war lords Already they sing hymns of victory What's the history of this earth? It's fear, that's it And here are the men waiting United in the destiny of the earth No one remembers a time of peace It's fear, that's it O Earth, One more day is rising And we can't lose it It's so little the glory of a war And the Mongers of war making it, without victories No one remembers peace anymore It's fear, that's it 12. mr. crowley ----------------------------------------------------------- OZZY OSBOURNE Mr. Crowley, what went on in your head Mr. Crowley, did you talk with the dead Your life style to me seemed so tragic With the thrill of it all You fooled all the people with magic You waited on Satan's call Mr. Charming, did you think you were pure Mr. Alarming, in nocturnal rapport Uncovering things that were sacred manifest on this Earth Conceived in the eye of a secret And they scattered the afterbirth (solo) Mr. Crowley, won't you ride my white horse Mr. Crowley, it's symbolic of course Approaching a time that is classic I hear maidens call Approaching a time that is drastic Standing with their backs to the wall Was it polemically sent l wanna know what you meant I wanna know I wanna know what you meant
