Heaven & Hell - Bible Black (single edit) lyrics

At last alone, his fire's dying Burned another day Now to pretend and make up an ending Somewhere far away He reached for a book all bound in leather Something that he knows he's never read And the first page says "Beware, you've found the answer" The next one says "I wish that you were dead" Don't go on, put it back You're reading from the Bible Black What's this world I see Who are you and who are me Maybe I just stumbled in the dark I must have been out cold But the way the story's told They found me lying naked in the rain, yeah Let me go I've seen religion but the light has left me blind Take me back I must have the Bible Black Well, here I go again From the start and to the end I wish I could remember what I've done Now, here's another spell It could take me straight to Hell And I feel I'm getting closer to my home Let me go I've found addiction and it makes me feel alive Take me back I must have the Bible Black He locks himself away and tastes the silence Hungry for another bite of wrong And just the words "Oh Lord, please take me with you" Took him to a place we don't belong Let him go, he can't come back He's reading from the Bible Black So if your fire's dying And what's the use of trying I may know another place that you can go It's hiding in the pages But you may not come back You're reading from the Bible Black
