Dickinson, Bruce - Trumpets Of Jericho Lyrics






This is the maze of life
This is the maze of death
This is the matrix of eternity

The demon never sleeps
The demon never lies
He beats my heart and leaves no echo

What heavy burden holds me back
Every step along the track?
Fear that reaches deep inside of me

At the trumpets of Jericho

Still the walls remain

At the trumpets of Jericho

Avalon's in chains
This is the river of space
This is the river of time
Chase the dragons of infinity

Atlas stands and laughs
Throws his burden down
Rolls the earth in the inferno

Fingers holding onto cracks
The howling wind that blows us back
Sucked into the grinding wheels of hell

At the trumpets of Jericho

Still the walls remain

Blow the trumpets of Jericho

Still the walls remain

At the end of the rainbow

There the grail remains

Sound the trumpets of Jericho

Avalon's in chains
As they drag you down
In your clothes of lead
See the golden light
Flashing overhead
Mocking you

Do you know who you are
In your robes of skin?
How many creatures live inside you?

Man is born forever free
But is everywhere in chains
Trapped inside this earthly prison cell

At the trumpets of Jericho

Still the walls remain

At the trumpets of Jericho

Avalon's in chains

At the trumpets of Jericho

There the grail remains

At the trumpets of Jericho

Still the walls remain

Still the walls remain

Still the walls remain

Still the walls remain

The silence of the tomb

The wheel of fortune round

    "first we gotta get some new wheels , every cop will be looking for this van. We need something.... inconspicuous, but with a little style"

  2. A.... X....

    Bride of Chucky brought me here

    this band behind bruce has to be the worst.. in fact it is the worst! talk about wasted yrs this is wasted album!!!

  9. A.... T....

    "What would Martha Stewart say?"

    "Fuck Martha Stewart! Martha Stewart can kiss my shiny, plastic butt! Here I am slaving away over a hot stove, making cookies, making Swedish meatballs, and for what? For a man who doesn't appreciate me! For a man who can't even wash one fucking dish! For a man who isn't even a man at all where it counts, if you get my drift. Take it from me, honey. Plastic is not substitute for a nice hunk of wood."

    "I didn't here her complaining last night. Any guy would need a hunk of plastic, probably battery-operated, to get a reaction out of you in bed. And by the way, WHERE THE HELL DID YOU LEARN TO BAKE?!"

    "How dare you speak to me that way!"

    "You started it!"

    "I did not!"

  12. D.... S....

    Bride of chucky 🔪❤

  13. g.... d....

    Great song

  14. C.... J....

    I'm 53 now, as God is my witness, I will be listening to this CD when I'm 70, if I make it to there , Dickinson is the real thing.

  15. E.... D....

    When the Angels fights the demons witness the end of the world.

  16. G.... X....

    5:18 sounds like '' sea of madness'' somewhere in time

    G.... X....

    Thought the same.

  17. A.... D....

    The way this starts after Jerusalem gets me pumped every time

  18. G.... A....

    Master piece!

  19. O.... G....

    Happy Birthday today(February 27) to Adrian Smith. Cheers!

  20. E.... R....

    as a sound engineer i can tell this production is high level

    E.... R....

    As an xpert in sound engineers i can tell you are right.

  21. A.... M....

    I listened to this in the 90´s and hated it. Now I love this album. I guess back then I was hoping he´d do a Maiden type of album as they were nowhere. Now I see the influence of this album on 21st Century Maiden and I love it!

    A.... M....

  22. L.... F....

    bruce stole a riff from dystopia at 3:00.Listen do Dystopia´s aftermath

    L.... F....

    Kinda awesome if Bruce actually listens to Dystopia though.

    L.... F....

    Bruce said once that he almost doesn't listen to music. And as for riff - Bruce didn't write riffs, it was one of the guitarists.

    L.... F....

    @Michał Skup He did write this song specifically on his own though.

    L.... F....

    This album came out a year before Aftermath. It couldnt have been stolen

  23. g.... g....

    Dystopia riff!!!! Never forget!!!

  24. C.... S....

    Tattooed Millionaire,Balls To Picasso,and Skunkworks were all descent albums in my opinion,but Accident,Chemical,and Tyranny are just great from top to bottom.Wish he would grace us with at least one more solo album!

  25. B.... O....

    stole the riff at 3:00...

  26. J.... V....

    Bruce. Chucky. Greates 😉

  27. D.... M....

    This paradoxal moment when you want dickinson to stay in maiden, and regret the abortion of his solo career...

    D.... M....

    Just because he rejoined maiden doesnt mean he wont put out solo music anymore. He hinted at the fact that we might see new maiden and solo albums soon.

    D.... M....

    @peter fabian when and how did he hint at that

    D.... M....

    @peter fabian Yes. And after almost 20 years he released only one solo album, 14 years ago...

    D.... M....

    As far as I’m concerned, this is just an Iron Maiden side quest.

  28. B.... D....

    Bruce did some amazing stuff but this was his best solo album for me

  29. �.... ....

    I'm thinking his withdrawal from Iron Maiden had its own irreplaceable worth listening to this album.

  30. R.... N....

    BRUCEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

    R.... N....

    DICKINSOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON

  31. T.... ....

    The chills , amazing how this starts right after " jeruselum lies here chained... in the dens of babylon "

  32. M.... M....

    Best song on Chemical Wedding and in my opinion one of the best his song ever!!!!!

    M.... M....

    Jerusalem is better

    M.... M....

    The alchemist is great and chemical weeding

  33. C.... D....

    Used to have the soundtrack to Bride Of Chucky and this was probably my favorite song on the album

  34. D.... F....

    Atlas stands and laughs. Throws his burden down. Rolls the Earth in the inferno....
    God, Bruce always uses such incredibly vivid and metal imagery. Just about everything he does becomes a damn masterpiece

  35. W.... V....

    The beginning sounds a bit like Slipknot.

    W.... V....

    Slipknot is a groove metal group which precursor is thrash metal

    W.... V....

    don't even compare that shit to this masterpiece.

    W.... V....

    Nefarious Careless I was thinking it started out kinda like a Tool tune.

    W.... V....

    Nefarious Careless And also a bit like Coal Chamber. And I dont think this is a bad thing. I think is important to put modern and different things in Metal.

    W.... V....

    Sage Unmasked FUCK YOU

  36. L.... B....

    Still Amazing <3 \m/

  37. D.... L....

    First heard this song on Bride Of Chucky. Had to buy the CD and almost wore it out. That was when I was 17.

    I'm 33 and just rediscovered The Chemical Wedding, and all I can say is simply this:

    STILL THE WALLS REMAIN

    D.... L....

    thats where i found it bride of chucky

    D.... L....

    Me too! Absolutely loved it! However, and this is just me, I prefer Accident Of Birth out of all of his releases. Can listen to it start to finish without skipping a track!

    D.... L....

    I know, right?! :))

    D.... L....

    Absolutely

  38. H.... C....

    Favorite of Bruce's solo albums and this song is freakin awesome!

  39. C.... C....

    One of my favorites.

    C.... C....

    One of the best!

  40. g.... ....

    LIKE IF YOU HAVE GOOSEBUMPS NOW.   \m/

  41. P.... G....

    Accident of birth and the chemical wedding are Bruce dickinson's best albums.

    P.... G....

    Adrian and Bruce are Iron Maiden's esence...

  42. V.... ....

    I almost made my head explode because I couldn't comprehend just how GREAT this album is for me. Fucking amazing!!!

  43. e.... l....

    what a great my favorite voice is bruce trumpete of jericho i always thought that jericho is the city of dates

  44. j.... ....

    Wore this album out on cassette in under 2 years. One of the greatest metal albums of all time. This song was a huge reason for that tape not lasting long.

  45. I.... L....

    I LOVE THIS SONG THX FOR PUTING THIS UP!!!

  46. I.... L....
