Don't walk the cold and ruthless streets
They drain the life from all they meet
The servants crying underground
Smelling mortal blood like hounds
As you crawl the sewer pipes
Deadly sinners set to strike
As you walk around the bend
You'll be dead right there where you stand
Flash of iron, leather, spikes, and swords
Mighty warriors with metal on their side
Enemies of metal, your death is our reward
Triumphant victory when you bring the steel to life

Deadly sinners
Deadly sinners
Deadly sinners
Deadly sinners

Victory when you bring the steel to life
Crushing the light, stalking the night
Deadly sinners always win
Kill the tyrants endless conquest
With no mercy, straight for his heart
Blood lust will overtake anger and violence
Without warning, lightning strikes in the dark

Lightning strikes
Flash of iron, leather, spikes, and swords
Those mighty warriors with metal on their side
Enemies of metal, your death is our reward
Triumphant victory when you bring the steel to life
Deadly sinners
Victory when you bring the steel to life
Ruling the night, winning the fight
Taking it all right to the end
Winning the night, ruling the fight
Take on last step before you die
Ruling the night, winning the fight
Taking it to the end

    Song Meaning:The song is like a Manowar or Hammerfall song. It's just about true metal and not that shitty emo crap that channels like Kerrang is swarming with!

    General Comment:Deadly Sinners from my POV is about the people who stand against you. For example, we metalheads are the 'metal' that 3IOB are refering too and we conquer our enemies of metal, the obsticles in our way, chavs, parents, society ect. and thier 'death is our reward' is metaphorical for our getting around them and being plaesed about it. Of course, I could be compltly off track here, but hey.

    General Comment:This is a great song. And i agree with the guy who said Cam Pipes sounds alot like Rob Halford, especially when Rob sings songs like painkiller.

    General Comment:This songs conjurs up images of an undead army on horseback riding into a city and killing the people so quickly they don't have a chance to defend themselves.

    I know it says deadly sinners and not undead and it never mentions horses but I can't picture an army killing people that fast on foot.
