"Shepherd of Fire" Songtext
von Avenged Sevenfold

Let′s take a moment and break the ice
So my intentions are known
See, I have pity in watching you suffer
I know the feeling of being damned alone
I got a storybook of my own

Don't you see I am your pride
Agent of wealth
Bearer of needs? (And you know it′s right)
I am your war
Arming the strong
Aiding the weak
Know me by name
Shepherd of fire

Well, I can promise you paradise
No need to serve on your knees
And when you're lost in the darkest of hours
Take a moment and tell me who you see
Won't tell you who not to be


Now you know I am your pride
Agent of wealth
Bearer of needs (and you know it′s right)
I am your war
Arming the strong
Aiding the weak
Know me by name
Shepherd of fire

Disciple of the cross and champion in the suffering
Immerse yourself into the kingdom of redemption
Pardon your mind through the chains of the divine
Make way for the shepherd of fire

Through the ages of time
I′ve been known for my hate
But I'm a dealer of simple choices
For me, it′s never too late

I am your pride
Agent of wealth
Bearer of needs (and you know it's right)
I am your war
Arming the strong
Aiding the weak


I am your wrath
I am your guilt
I am your lust (and you know it′s right)
I am your law
I am your scar
I am your trust
Know me by name
Shepherd of fire
