Bruce Dickinson - A Tyranny Of Souls Lyrics






When shall we three meet again?
In thunder, lightning, or in rain?
When the hurlyburly's done?
When the battle's lost, not won?

A tyranny of souls
That love has lost
A tyranny of souls
A Pentecost
Speaking tongues of fire
Enflaming our desires
Watching as we die

Who rips the child out from the womb?
Who raised the dagger, who plays the tune?
At the crack of doom on judgment day
No ocean could wash my sins away

A tyranny of souls
That love has lost
A tyranny of souls
A Pentecost
Speaking tongues of fire
Enflaming our desires
Watching as we die
On our own cross
A tyranny of souls

We are the black space
We are the black light
We shine where no others dare

Killin' my head with the neon
Suffering my fate for no reason
No is a relative stranger to my life

Deeds of the Faithful
Seeds of betrayal

Hammer the nail into my hand
Anger is ruler in my land
I am the killer of weakness in my head

We are the black light
We are the black space

A tyranny of souls
That love has lost
A tyranny of souls
A Pentecost
Speaking tongues of fire
Enflaming our desires
Watching as we die
On our own cross
A tyranny of souls

A tyranny of souls
That love has lost
A tyranny of souls
A Pentecost
Speaking tongues of fire
Enflaming our desires
Watching as we die

Bruce Dickinson A Tyranny Of Souls Comments
  1. T.... D....

    Bruce should be receiving the Ronnie James Dio lifetime achievement award instead of Axl Rose. Bruce blows 9 out of 10 vocalists out of the water, no matter the genre of music. The only vocalists that are equal to the mighty Bruce is Lzzy Hale of Halestorm, Rob Halford of Judas Priest, James Hetfield of Metallica, David Draiman of Disturbed and of course Ronnie James Dio himself. Obviously when he was alive.

    T.... D....

    James Hetfield, are you kidding, have you problemes with your ears 🤘

  2. D.... N....

    The pentacost addresses the issue of thespianism.

  3. D.... N....

    The pentacost gives the Presbytarian church control over the Methodist church.

  4. D.... N....

    A pentacost is the agreement amongst Christians to substitute obedience in the place of consent for women on the account that they get used to it. It was done because in a world of individual consent, African Americans wouldn't get any. Pat Buchanan supports the pentacost. As John McLaughlin once said, "wrong!"

  5. A.... C....

    Bruce Dickinson is the best and I have never gotten sick of it anyway I am not the only reason

  6. M.... R....

    That guitar solo... damn

  7. R.... L....

    Still a really strong album.

  8. J.... B....

    my tyranny in jjcreator.blogspot.com

  9. J.... S....

    This song was supposed to be in the "Three Tremors/Trinity" project that consisted of Dickinson, Halford and Dio. Later they thought they'd replace Dio with Tate (in the 2000s? wtf guys? Tate had lost his range back then) and the whole idea was scrapped due to time constraints.

    J.... S....

    Jimmy Saboter Damn. There's something I never knew.

    J.... S....

    That’d would’ve been awesome. I think the trinity project was handed over to geoff and they got Blaze Bayley and Tim Ripper Owens instead of Bruce and Rob, honestly thought it turned out great in the end, but a shame that we never saw these legends together as intended initially.

    J.... S....

    Bruce addresses this in his book. He wrote this song for Halford/Dio and himself as part of that 3 Tenors of Metal project. he wanted Dio, but Smallwood and Ronnie's wife (also his manager) didn't get along, so Smallwood pushed for Tate instead. Bruce relented, and Tate ended up being disagreeable to everything, so nothing got done and the project went nowhere.

    From Bruce's description of his vision, the project would have allowed the three of them to do some crazy things with melodies, harmonies and ranges that they couldn't have done solo.

    damn shame it didn't happen.

  10. K.... F....

    Shakespeare was metal before metal was introduced to music. The pre-dates Wagner by at least two centuries.

  11. G.... ....

    .....If only Maiden could make something as good

  12. z.... ....

    I am victim of tyranny of Bruce' master vocals.

  13. S.... ....
