Stratego Lyrics – Iron Maiden

Stratego Lyrics

[Verse 1]
How Do You Read A Madman’s Mind?
Teach Me The Art Of War
For I Shall Bring More Than You Bargained For
Give Me An Ultimatum
That I Could Not Dream Of
Spills Of A Crying Nation Upon My Soul

[Pre-Chorus 1]
For I Have Not A Mortal Soul
That You Already Know
Look At My Eyes
There’s No Surprise

[Chorus]
Ocean Is Black, The Devil’s Track
Looking Beyond Beneath The Sea
Eye Of The Storm Is Here Again
Been There Before You Were Ever Born

Beyond The Dark, I Feel The Pain
It’s Hidden But I Can’t Explain
A Cross To Bear, A Heavy Faith
My Sorrow Whispers Time Again

[Post-Chorus]
I Hear You Calling My Name
Come To Claim My Life Again
Pray For Me I’m Almost There
The Pain Almost Too Much To Bear

[Verse 2]
I Try To Find My Way Back Home
To Feel The Same Again
The Voice Of Nothing Listened Far Too Long
Little By Little Eat Away
I Think I’ve Lost My Mind
Too Late To Change Now What I Left Behind

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Hear Me, Listen My Call
I Am Ready To Fall
Lord Hear Me Now
Let Me Go

[Guitar Solo: Janick Gers]

[Chorus]
Ocean Is Black, The Devil’s Track
Looking Beyond Beneath The Sea
Eye Of The Storm Is Here Again
Been There Before You Were Ever Born

Beyond The Dark, I Feel The Pain
It’s Hidden But I Can’t Explain
A Cross To Bear, A Heavy Faith
My Sorrow Whispers Time Again
