Mask of the Great Deceiver *Kerry Livgren* w/Ronnie James Dio

2. Well he's the prince of the world, his work is never complete.
And though he promises all you'll lie a slave at his feet.
Don't you know the world is his dominion! Can't you see that you're bound in his chains!?
The time is short so take your strength in what remains. oh.
He will fill up your ears and he'll dazzle your eyes, but don't believe what he's saying, 'cause he's the father of lies.
In your heart don't you know that he'll betray you, in the end he will drag you away.
Till all the world is crying for the judgement day!
And he's fallen how he's fallen from the height of the morning star
Though his light's still shining brightly, It's the mask of the great deceiver
The great deceiver.
Though the truth has walked among us and the words that he spoke will remain.
There's a heartbreaking blindness upon us.
All our efforts to be free are in vain without the gift of love.
We're lost without the love.
Well he never will rest, until his evil is done.
And he don't want you to know, your freedom's already won!
Don't you know the world is his dominion!?
Can't you see he keeps it in chains!
Time is short so take your strength in what remains.
He's fallen oh he's fallen from the height of the morning star.
Though his light's still shining brightly, It's the mask of the great deceiver.
The mask of the great deceiver. He's going to make you a believer.
He'll tell you lies, he'll break your eyes.
The great deceiver.
