Iced Earth - Jack lyrics

rate me

I...I am a bastard son

Conceived of a hundred men

Now I'm the Chosen One

Back, looking back

Father William called me Johnny

But my mother called me Jack

I...I scream out to you

As I see them take you

Hell, it put me through

You...you gave me life

Then ripped out my emotion

And replaced it with a knife

I cut you once, I cut you twice

You're my midnight sacrifice

You shamed me...you shame God

You scream my name, and now you're gone

I've seen the rain wash over you a thousand times

Your flesh summons me

God knows why

Repent your sins to me

Now...you're no different now

Still the same, the Devil's whore

Lilith on the prowl

I...I've got something for you

I know what real pain is

And you will too

I cut you once, I cut you twice

You're my midnight sacrifice

You shamed me...you shame God

You scream my name, now you're gone
