| Black Sabbath – The Mob Rules Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
(The song is about the crucifixion and death of Christ) Close the city and tell the people that something's coming to call Death and darkness are rushing forward to take a bite from the wall, oh You've nothing to say They're breaking away If you listen to fools The mob rules The mob rules... (Christ said nothing to Pilate as he was condemned. "They'll drag you away" is the actual lyric here. The Mob chose Barabbas over Jesus Christ, the Mob ruled in this case.) Kill the spirit and you'll be blinded, the end is always the same Play with fire, you burn your fingers and lose your hold of the flame, oh It's over it's done The end, the big death If you listen to fools The mob rules... (Inaccurate lyrics here..."the ending begun"... This song is all about the death of Christ at the behest of the Mob choosing Barabbas to be spared. The Mob are fools for doing this, however, since Christ's death was necessary to bring eternal life to all. "If you listen to fools..." In other words, don't kill Christ, so he cannot rise. You've nothing to say Oh they're breaking away If you listen to fools Break the circle and stop the movement, the wheel is thrown to the ground Just remember it might stop rolling and take you right back around You're all fools, fools rules rules The mob rules |

| Dio – Man on the Silver Mountain Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
The Man on the Silver Mtn is the Devil. Wake up. I'm a wheel, I'm a wheel I can roll, I can feel And you can't stop me turning Cause I'm the sun, I'm the sun I can move, I can run But you'll never stop me burning (Satan is the Angel of Light, fallen, but he keeps on going) Come down with fire Lift my spirit higher Someone's screaming my name Come and make me holy again (Wants to be holy again, came down with fire (fell, like lightning) I'm the man on the silver mountain I'm the man on the silver mountain I'm the day, I'm the day I can show you the way And look, I'm right beside you I'm the night, I'm the night I'm the dark and the light With eyes that see inside you (Satan is darkness, but can still masquerade as the Angel of Light. He can show you "the way"...) Come down with fire Lift my spirit higher Someone's screaming my name Come and make me holy again I'm the man on the silver mountain I'm the man on the silver mountain Come down with fire And lift my spirit higher Someone's screaming my name Come and make me holy again Well, I can help you, you know I can I'm the man on the silver mountain I'm the man on the silver mountain Just look at me and listen I'm the man, the man, give you my hand I'm the man on the silver mountain Come down with fire And lift your spirit higher I'm the man on the mountain The man on the silver mountain I'm the night, the light The black and the white The man on the silver mountain (Everything Dio sings about is vague and this is the way the Devil works, look at Dio's logo/name, turn it upside down, you can see "Devil" or "Evil" in it). |
