Birth of the Wicked (2007 Re-Recorded) Lyrics by Iced Earth

Box of the Wicked

2007

[Verse 1]
Daylight breaks hard on sacred ground
For centuries, we've questioned them of his birth
But in this hour, on this day, the Elder knew
Years of madness must now subdue
Order must be enforced to hide the truth
'Cause on this day, in this hour, it's coming true
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 2]
Child of the wicked and the ancient man
Baptized in black magic, their Master Plan
Born of the Watch, his prophecy, by their command
Conceived of the Beast and in stars above
We'll shape and guide him with undying love
Born of the Watch, through sands of time, by their command
[Chorus]
So, behold the birth, the wicked child
Born of the Beast, in eastern sands
He will arise, he will divide
He has the power to bring the end
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3]
It's up to us now to seal his fate
Marked with the proper math, the child's none too late
Blessed by the Beast, our chosen one was born this day
He'll rise from the ashes of our dying race
Manipulate history, time and space
The Elder, men of the Watch, professed this day
[Chorus]
So, behold the birth, the wicked child
Born of the Beast, in eastern sands
He will arise, He will divide
He has the power to bring the end
Behold the birth, the wicked child
Born of the Beast, in eastern sands
He will arise, He will divide
He has the power to bring the end (To bring the end!!!)
(To bring the end!)
