Pure Evil Lyrics by Iced Earth

Box of the Wicked

1991

[Guitar Solo Intro]

[Verse 1]
Cannons pound into night
Angels soar into the sky
The battle rages on
Deliverance, unholy one

[Pre-Chorus 1]
The seeds of hate fly tonight
Good and evil light the sky
Another vision from inside
I know it's wrong, I can't deny

[Verse 2]
For seven years I have reigned
In this damned and desolate Hell
Now, I've lived the master vengeance
It saved me from myself

[Pre-Chorus 2]
We paint the sky with blood tonight
Setting free the damned to fight
The whore of Babylon is here
The end of the storm is near

[Guitar Solo Interlude]

[Chorus]
(Pure evil)
Feel the pain from the jackal's wrath
(Pure evil)
Dance in flames for the final quest

[Post-Chorus]
Hear the ghost of violence
Fear the God of detriment

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
The land on earth is soaked with blood
Hear the screams of the helpless ones
Axes yield and daggers fly
Ripping through all flesh in sight

[Pre-Chorus 2]
We paint the sky with blood tonight
Setting free the damned to fight
The whore of Babylon is here
The end of the storm is near

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
(Pure evil)
Feel the pain from the jackal's wrath
(Pure evil)
Dance in flames for the final quest

[Post-Chorus]
Hear the ghost of violence
Fear the God of detriment
Hear the ghost of violence
Fear the God of detriment
