Savage Lyrics by Judas Priest

Savage Lyrics

    Who gives you the right to come here and tell me
    I have to leave this place my home
    To you it's a jungle, to me it's a kingdom
    Where (my) people are free there to roam
    Born with the stars we are happy and peaceful
    'Til now we were left undisturbed
    But you rupture the forests our gardens
    And fill them with filth from your cities unheard

    Savage, who is savage
    Leave your morals, stake your claim
    Savage, you are savage
    Modern man can take the blame

    You poisoned my tribe with civilized progress
    Baptizing our blood with disease
    You christened our bodies with sadness and suffering
    Saying then that your god is well-pleased
    What have we done to deserve such injustice
    Explain to us please if you can
    But you can't, no you can't, we can see it in your eyes
    Of us both who's the primitive man

    Savage, who is savage
    Leave your morals, stake your claim
    Savage, you are savage
    Modern man can take the blame

    You poisoned my tribe with civilized progress
    Baptizing our blood with disease
    You christened our bodies with sadness and suffering
    Saying then that your god is well-pleased
    What have we done to deserve such injustice
    Explain to us please if you can
    But you can't, no you can't, we can see it in your eyes
    Of us both who's the primitive man

    Savage, savage
    Savage, savage
    Who's the savage
    Modern man
    Who's the savage
    Modern man


    Beyond The Realms Of Death

    He had enough
    He couldn't take anymore
    He'd found a place
    In his mind and slammed the door
    No matter how they tried
    They couldn't understand
    They washed and dressed him
    Fed him by hand

    Yeah! I've left the world behind
    I'm safe here in my mind
    Free to speak with my own kind
    This is my life, this is my life
    I'll decide not you

    Withdrawn he'd sit there
    Stare blank into space
    No sign of life
    Would flicker on his face
    Until one day he smiled
    It seemed as though with pride
    The wind kissed him
    Goodbye - and then he died

    Yeah! I've left the world behind
    I'm safe here in my mind
    Free to speak with my own kind
    This is my life, this is my life
    I'll decide not you

    Keep the world with all its sin
    It's not fit for livin' in
    Yeah! I will start again
    It can take forever, and ever, and ever
    And ever, but I'll still win.

    How many like him,
    Are there still
    But to us, all
    Seem to have lost the will
    They lie in thousands
    Plagued and lost
    Is nothing worth this bitter cost

    Yeah! I've left the world behind
    I'm safe here in my mind
    Free to speak with my own kind
    This is my life, this is my life
    I'll decide not you

    Keep the world with all its sin
    It's not fit for livin' in

    Beoynd the realms of death.
