Dio - Last in line

From the album with the same name.

Lyrics:
We're a ship without a storm
The cold without the warm
Light inside the darkness that it needs, yeah

We're a laugh without a tear
The hope without the fear
We are coming - home

We're off to the witch
We may never never never come home
But the magic that we'll feel
Is worth a lifetime

We're all born upon the cross
The throw before the toss
You can release yourself
But the only way is down

We don't come alone
We are fire we are stone
We're the hand that writes
Then quickly moves away

Chorus:
We'll know for the first time
If we're evil or divine
We're the last in line
We're the last in line

Two eyes from the east
It's the angel or the beast
And the answer lies between
The good and bad

We search for the truth
We could die upon the tooth
But the thrill of just the chase
Is worth the pain

Repeat chorus

We're off to the witch
We may never never never come home
But the magic that we'll feel
Is worth a lifetime

We're all born upon the cross
The throw before the toss
You can release yourself
But the only way you go is down

@Vaekkrinhart dio was a kind hearted man and cared about others and he especially didnt go around judging people like you. i honestly can not see a man like that going to hell. who are you to judge whether peolpe will burn in hell anyway? you are but a mortal man

@Anticrombie918 "2112" great album!!! My brother had that tape back in the day, he also had every Santana tape. Needless to say he has smoked more weed than you or I have ever even seen.

@UberKrispy The people I smoke with don't listen to the cool shit like you guys did. A lot of times I have to excuse myself and go put on my Age of Winters album (The Sword). Great smoke music right there. When I get home from my buddies, my roommates know I'm high cause I pull up 2112 and stare at the computer screen while it plays.

I bought this cassette on the day it was released ( Iwas 16) in 1984 from Believe In Music (local record store) and went to my Mom's house and listened to it as I smoked an enormous bowl with my friend Mark, we got baked and listened to the amazing metal sounds eminating from my vintage 80's boombox. Back then my tape collection consisted of "Blizzard of Oz", "Piece Of Mind", "Last In Line" and other choice metal.

HeavyMetalBeliever, sorry I didn't mean to get people arguing.

[HeavyMetalBeliever]

@cavemilitorum Will you pleeeeease stop arguing about religion on here? It's a Dio song, not University Challenge.

[boobengarden666]

so who else stood up on their chair and started belting this. shit i need a giant sword, so i can carry it every time i hear this song

[ixtroon]

dont talk about jesus or other shitheads this is about DIO

[cavemilitorum]

@Anubite212 Jesus existed, we have many evidences of it. For example, Titus Livus, a roman anti-christian writer who lived in the 1st century, writes that Jesus was an public ennemy who caused many troubles in Palestina and was executed for it. You can think he wasn't God's son, but you can't say he never existed.

Before calling christians as "fools" look and your gods and tell me : why is it more probable that Anubis or Râ exist than God ?
