Iron Maiden Fear Is the Key lyrics

We live our lives in fever
In a choking sweat of fear
In the heat of the night you can feel so much
In the heat of the night I scream, "Don't touch!"

I remember a time when we used and abused
We fought all our battles in vain
I remember a time we thought that passion was free
In the heat of the night, bodies aflame

We live in fever

I hear your secret heartbeat
I can hear your silent cries
The kids have lost their freedom
And nobody cares till somebody famous dies

I remember a time when we used and abused
And we fought all our battles in vain
I remember a time we thought that passion was free
In the heat of the beds, bodies aflame

We live in fever
We live in fever

Now we live in a world of uncertainty
Fear is the key to what you want to be
You don't get a say the majority gets its way

You're outnumbered by the bastards till the day you die

I hear your secret heartbeats
I can hear your silent cries
The kids telling lies and lies
The kids have lost their freedom
And nobody cares till somebody famous dies
In telling lies and lies and lies and lies and lies
And lies and lies and lies and lies

I remember a time when we used and abused
It was just lies
I remember a time we thought that passion was free
When it was just lies and lies and lies and lies and lies
And lies and lies
In the night

We live in fever
We live in fever
We live in fever

Now we live in a world of uncertainty
Fear is the key to what you want to be
You don't get a say the majority gets its way
You're outnumbered by the bastards till the day you die
