[Iron Maiden - Phantom of the Opera lyrics]

Oh woah, yeah!

I've been looking so long for you now
You won't get away from my grasp
You've been living so long in hiding
And hiding behind that false mask you know
And I know that you ain't
Got that long to last
Your looks and your feelings are just
The remains of your past

You're standing in the wings
There you wait for the curtain to fall
And knowing the terror and holding
You have on us all
Now, I know that you're gonna scratch
Me and maim me and maul
And you know I'm helpless from
Your mesmerizing cat call ooh

Keep your distance, walk away


Don't take his bait
Don't you stray, don't fade away, yeah
Watch your step, he's out to get you
Come what may
Don't you stray from the narrow way, yeah

I'm running and hiding in my dreams
You're always there
You're the Phantom of the Opera
You're the devil, you're just out to scare
You damaged my mind and my soul
It just floats through the air
You haunt me, you taunt me
You torture me back at your lair
