Judas Priest

Judas Priest - The Sentinel lyrics

Along deserted avenues<br>Steam begins to rise<br>The figures primed and ready<br>Prepared for quick surprise<br>He's watchin' for a sign<br>His life is on the line<br>Dogs whine in the alleys<br>Smoke is on the wind<br>From deep inside it's empty shell<br>A cathedral bell begins to toll<br>A storm begins to grow<br><br>Amidst the upturned burned-out cars<br>The challengers await<br>And in their fists clutch iron bars<br>With which to seal his fate<br>Across his chest is scabbards rest<br>The rows of throwing knives<br>Whose razor points in challenged tests<br>Have finished many lives<br><br>Now facing one another<br>The stand-off eats at time<br>Then all at once a silence falls<br>As the bell ceases it's chime<br>Upon this sign the challengers<br>With shrieks and cries rush forth<br>The knives fly out like bullets<br>Upon their deadly course<br>Screams of pain and agony<br>Rent the silent air<br>Amidst the dying bodies<br>Blood runs everywhere<br>The figure stands expressionless<br>Impassive and alone<br>Unmoved by this victory<br>And the seeds of death he's sown<br><br>Sworn to avenge<br>Condemn to hell<br>Tempt not the blade<br>All fear the sentinel
