Blind Guardian – Trial By Fire lyrics

In 1945 the year it came to be
Their fate decided many miles accross the sea
They told them not to fear, they couldn't be prepared.
Then came the day that not a single soul was spared.

Too late
there's no escape
The Trial has begun
Down they fly
From out of the sky
Feel the radiation burn!

The men of power had nothing to fear.
When the finger hits the switch they're far away from here.
Down in their sanctuary, their hiding in their lair.
The sorcerers of justice will be waiting for them there.

Too late there's no escape
The Trial has begun
Down they fly
From out of the sky
Feel the radiation burn !

I saw the people running through all my dreams.
I heard the soldiers crying, Mother Nature screams.
I saw destruction falling from out of the sky.
I heard the Wise Man calling ... WHY?

In 1945 the year it came to be
Their fate decided many miles accross the sea
They told them not to fear they couldn't be prepaired.
Then came the day that not a single soul was spared.

Too late
there's no escape
The Trial has begun
Down they fly
From out of the sky
Feel the radiation burn !
