Lyrics:
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
For I have not a mortal soul
That you already know
Look at my eyes
There’s no surprise
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
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
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
Hear me listen my call
I am ready to fall
Lord hear me now - let me go
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

About Iron Maiden:
Iron Maiden are an institution. Over the course of 44 years they have come to embody a spirit of fearless creative independence, ferocious dedication to their fans, and a cheerful indifference to their critics that’s won them a following that spans every culture, generation, and time-zone. A story of gritty determination and courageous defiance of the naysayers, theirs has been an adventure like no other.
The band’s immense discography includes the studio albums ‘The Number Of The Beast’, ‘Piece Of Mind’, ‘Powerslave, ‘Somewhere In Time’, ‘Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son’, ‘Fear Of The Dark’, ‘The Final Frontier’ and ‘The Book Of Souls’which have spawned many classic hits as ‘The Trooper’, ‘Wasted Years’, ‘Hallowed Be Thy Name’, ‘Wasting Love’, ‘Run To The Hills’, ‘Aces High’, ‘Rime Of The Ancient Mariner’ and ‘2 Minutes to Midnight’.

UP THE IRONS NOW AND EVER ! ! ! But , let me say, outta here there are folks and folks that had to sacrifice themselves far more than them, people starving, people who can't arrive at the end of the month, even middle and upper class people who tried to change things for good and got busted or killed or died for the stress of trying to change things, being generous and brave. And the real victim in Iron Maiden ( not OF, i'm not blaming the rest of the band) is Clive Burr. BTW IN MORE OCCASIONS I PRAISED THE BRAVERY OF I.M. FOR EXAMPLE FOR DENOUNCING WHAT A METAL ( BUT EVEN A POP) BAND, BACK IN THE ( PRE-INTERNET) DAY, COULDN'T HAVE EVEN NAMED, WITH THE VIDEO OF TWO MINUTES TO MIDNIGHT ( indeed, the old school fans might remember the picture in the backcover of TMtM single: the band members to the wall with a black strip in their eyes, waitng to be shoot, i.e. what they risked in case a serious dictatorship worse than Tatcher should have happened, it is an ep of 1984) ,AND I PUBLICLY PRAISED THEIR BRAVERY FOR WRITING ON THE WALL'S CARTOON VIDEO THAT PUTS YOU BEFORE THE ACTUAL STATE OF THINGS. SO NOW PLEASE AVOID THE SHIT STORM PEOPLE. I LOVE MAIDEN AND I'M INTO THEM SINCE '88, I WAS IN THE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL. IN CASE OF INSULTS I'M NOT EVEN ANSWERING.

Είναι η ένα καλό και σχετικά ενδιαφέρον τραγούδι των maiden.

Can we all take a minute and praise Nicko for his performance in this song? It may not be the most technically advanced song ever but man... the groove is relentless. Like a guy on Loudwire said: "Restraint is the hallmark of any great drummer".

[@federarm]

As a drummer, the bass drum groove is one of the hardest he ever played! He plays three strikes (three sixteenth in a row, not properly triplets) at 110 BPM, a hell of a groove. Very difficult to keep for 4 minutes.

Difficult times created by the government, and Iron Maiden seemed iffily pro-Woke, in their last video. I don't, Know.

[@johnathan_dunn]

Writing on the wall seemed anti-government/transhumanism/globalism to me. I certainly don't see anything prowoke at all.

[@mixedmattaphors]

@@johnathan_dunn It was just some of the (obvious) symbolism, to me. You don't have to like Donald Trump, at all, to not be a fan of the woke, obviously, but it was a pretty big thing to see that they clearly used an image of him, as the "bad guy," with the European guys serving him, as some kind of Tyrant. Then, there was a very, very obvious shot of a hipster guy with glasses, looking very woke, being one of the poor, put-down masses, i. e., the unquestioned "good guys." Which, again, I get, wokeish hipster dudes are just as put down by the government as anyone else, but it seemed very pro-one-side and very much, symbolically, against anything not Leftish. Plus, Iron Maiden in interviews unskeptically referring to "C*****," etc. And then the image of the guy who is vaporized, who is the spitting image of exactly who the woke would put up as the ultimate victim. I don't know, I just don't know. The Vibe, the image, was very much, "These are the bad guys, that the Media tells you to hate, and if we were all just woke, we could have a dance party." I mean, I think it's this close to Iron Maiden telling people, "If you don't get the j**, then f**** you," which is not metal.

[@F1JV]

@@mixedmattaphors …I didn’t like the “Orange Man Bad”…4 years & has caused ALL the world’s problems🙄🙄🙄…on that video. Maiden should have not used an image of his “likeness” made the image completely generic…because the other world leaders(+monarchy) are generic or not shown.

[@micheletassino9334]

I've been listening to Iron Maiden for 30+ years. This song seems like a step back towards the linearity of the classical albums of the 80s, away from the "prog" intricacy of the last releases. And I say it in a good way.

@the dong Master yes I am Lol… that has to be the album… i mean.. just check those riffs in wicker man, ghost of the navigator, blood brothers… if you didnt catch a similarity you have to be either fakin’ deaf or stupid…

[@PippPriss]

@@ManuelMoreno-yw4lf I also don't hear the similarities. I would not call anybody hearing them stupid or anything, since anybody has their own perception, but the "chords" etc. cannot be the reason, because that is something Maiden is doing on repeat since the 80s (which I like). To me, it just blends in to the entire "after reunion"-style in general. So of course, same musicians, so there will be similarities, but nothing so specific to say "this sounds like Brave New World".

Exactly what I thought. It's like Kevin records that sound that it's pretty much what they'll do live, knowing that they will rock the shit out of it when they go on tour. To me it's like with Martin's 80s records was better than live (soundwise speaking), now with Kevin they make a good record but we all know that live on tour will be better! And that is smart, because with all the piracy and ways to get the music free, their best way to really profit is with concerts... and there is nothing better than being at a Maiden's concert...
