2. 상세

예수에 관한 내용이다. 그리스도가 십자가 형을 당할 때 겉으로는 모두를 용서를 하지만 속으로 앙심을 품고 있다는 내용. 가사가 매우 어둡다.

{{{+2 Looking Down the Cross}}}
[Guitar Solo-데이브 머스테인]
Woah, yeah

Now before they take me and my blessed life
Now you'll know why death was summoned here tonight
I'll recall my perils, they'll kill me in pride
No, I can't run away, there's no place to hide
Woah

Though too much to live for, I owe enough to die
Ask not for salvation, my death shall mean their lives
Hatred and guilt, the altar they've built, high priests of sin
Destiny, fate, the wicked one's gate beckoning you in
Beckoning you in

[Guitar Solo 2-데이브 머스테인]

Down the walkways, through the blood-stained town
Looking down the cross, bleeding from the crown
Led to stay, to die beside the thieves
Kill the king of the world to be

And now to you, this will come a putrefying pestilence
More noxious than the serpent's breath, malevolently destined
More corrupt than the malice of Choronzon
More disease than the wind of the moonlight sun
Putrefaction you have caused, no need for confession
Now you wish you had a god to stop your demolition
Crushing the bones of the hundred-folds, swingin' the judgement hammer
Man, woman, child, no one is safe, the heads of the dead are the banner

And this was all you got so don these broken wings
The sands of time run out, the bells of Hades ring
Is this a nightmare to unhallow thy name?
Smell of brimstone dancin' in the flame
No help now as you fulfill his task
The chief of evil has got you by the ass
Set free to sit upon the throne
Just a dream? You're weepin' all alone

[Guitar Solo 3-데이브 머스테인]

Lookin' down the cross, speak no evil
I'm lookin' down the cross, speak no evil
Lookin' down the cross, speak no evil
I'm lookin' down the cross, speak no evil
Woah
