It came up crawling from the ruins of the past
And I just can't believe my eyes
It wears the same old face we thought was dead and gone
Forever buried by the time

Unholy alliance
Unholy alliance

It came up screaming from the ashes of the grave
To make this world a battle field
It's got a voice that steals the courage from the brave
And leaves a scar that will not heal

Unholy alliance
Unholy alliance

Don't want to hear the same old lie that spreads the fear
Only fools think it's cool
We must be blind not to see the signs
How can we dare to look away in the wake of yesterday

Troubled times don't turn your back to the lions
Troubled times just learn your lesson well
The party is over

We must be blind not to see the signs
How can we dare to look away in the wake of yesterday

Troubled times don't turn your back to the lions
Troubled times just learn your lesson well
The party is over

Unholy alliance
