Fear Is The Key

Iron Maiden

(Dickinson/Gers) 5:36



We live our lives in fever

In a choking sweat of fear

In the heat of the night you can

feel so much

In the heat of the night I scream

"Don't touch!"



I remember a time when we

used and abused

And fought all our battles in vain

I remember a time we thought that

passion was free

In the heart of the night... bodies aflame



We live in fever...



I hear your secret heartbeat

I can hear your silent cries

The kids have lost their freedom

And nobody cares till somebody

famous dies...



I remember a time when we

used and abused

And fought all our battles in vain

I remember a time we thought that

passion was free

In the heart of the night... bodies aflame



Now we live, in a world of uncertainty

Fear is the key - to what you want to be

You don't get a say the majority

gets its way

You're outnumbered by the bastards

till the day you die...
