You've had warnings You've seen signs Marked by omens In prophecy and rhyme From a land of shadows Where the blind must lead the blind I heard a lion roar One more time Let the heat come down Let the heat come down Let the heat come down Let the heat come down Crossed forbidden wastelands Saw lightning shock the sky Shed the skin of innocence No tears left to cry Held a snake called justice Who's truth would ever bend Who's sword is ever swifter As it justifies it's ends And the heat came down Yeah the heat come down Let the heat come down The heat come down You read slogans Glimpses of the end Every crying sunset Like a dying friend High on the wire Out on the blue From behind the bars of madness You see the truth The meek inherit nothing But clean cages in the end Barons of religion Want you as their friend Sentence is delivered The gavel slams And another door closes On these "empire" lands Let the heat come down The heat come down The heat come down The heat come down
