  • The sympathy in my mind is growing cold
    Life is like the burning sand so I'm told
    The time is coming near when solitude appears
    Take the chains of oppression away
    Through the sands of time I'm marching on
    The blistering rays of hate strengthen me
    The violent mass has shown my destiny
    Does all of this justify the rage inside
    [Chorus:]
    The desert rain is changing me
    It's called on me to rise
    A world of hate and malice
    Yes, that's the way it seems
    The hour glass is running out
    The serpent rides with me
    We shall rise and conquer
    Crushing all that's weak
    All that's light is burning out
    The serpent rides with me

      @@tomjoad1917 Why there is so much editing with the guitars? The solo we hear is DEFINITELY NOT the solo played in the concert, especially at the end of the solo it is really obvious, I know Jon is a killer beast of a guitarist and he probably does a couple minor mistakes here and there even if he does any and other guitarist seems to play the solos really well just a couple different parts, I really wonder why they decided to record this in the fucking studio instead of using the live sound

      I love the concept that John brings to the song. Desert rain representing all the adversity and suffering you have to go through in order to rise and become that self actualized individual you always wanted to be. And John has the freaking right hand of God. I don't know how he does it

    Hi Greece, American iced earth fan here. thank you for being so good to iced earth. There's not a lot of American power metal bands that can sustain success without a solid place to always make money and you've always supported the band to the point where John chose to continue on with the band after the tragedy of September 11th. If he had ended the band, my life might be over. I found his music at a time in my life I needed it. His music speaks to me in a way that early Metallica did. That rage. It soothes the beast within me.

    Great track! Probably my most favorite track from Iced Earth. The only thing I don't like about this clip is that even with the guitar solo parts, the camera focuses on Jon Schaffer even though he's playing the rhythm part. I know that he's the band leader but it's quite off-setting to hear a guitar solo and see rhythm playing on the screen.

    • @silafuyang8675

      Actually I think Barlow technically had a wider range. It's widely agreed upon he was their best vocalist.
