Helloween - Save Us Lyrics






[Music + lyrics: K. Hansen]

Too late to call for the priest
he is not here anymore
we look at the age of the beast
and we've seen its vast armies form
hear our call

[Chorus:]
Please, save us
please, save us

In permanent madness we live
no time for life and for love
to take is the rule, not to give
insanity comes from below
to take us all

[Chorus:]
Please, save us
please, save us

We believe that the phenomena of nature
are the expression of infinitive intelligence
we express our belief that all forms of life
are manifestations of spirit
and thus, all men are children of God

Far from down below one comes prepared to take us all
waiting for his future and the final call

[Solo: Both/Kai/Mike/Both]

We stand on the edge of the world
just one step more and we fall
guide us and please take our hands
without you we're weak and alone
hear our call

[Chorus:]
Please, save us
please, save us

Now!

[Solo licks: Kai]

Save us--from the gods of thunder
Save us--from the dogs of war
Save us--from the creeping nightmares
Save us--from the evil's course
Save us--from our own ignorance
Save us--from the man in black
Save us--from the desolation
Save us--from the hate attack
Save us--oh please
Save us--please save us
Save us--oh please
Save us--now!

    When Michael kiske talks in a low pitched voice it reminds me of a greybeard from Skyrim.

  43. M.... ....

    powerful, spiritual. f*cking awesome!

  44. N.... C....

    We believe that the phenomena of nature

    They doesn't do metalcore always. Just in some songs, that's what metal needs to survive today.

  58. B.... R....

    PLEASE SAVE US JESUS GOOD & EVIL!!!!!!!! KING BOR YOUR HUMBLE SERVANT BEGS U!!!

  59. O.... B....

    Dear Kiske, why don't you come and save us from Deris?

    O.... B....

    O.... B....

    Because Kiske isn't on this album and Deris saved Helloween from him.

  62. d.... m....

    When they say "please save us", it kind of sounds like they are saying "free satan".

    d.... m....

    what are you, stupid? or something?

  63. L.... D....

    Kill the King ?
    Rainbow?

    L.... D....

    +Leonardo Discacciati Yes Kai Hansen's influences are obvious on many songs he composed. Still brilliant though.

    L.... D....

    yes .I like so much

    L.... D....

    +Leonardo Discacciati intro and solo. but it sounds awesome

    L.... D....

    The end of the solo is defenetely like "Light In The Black" ;)

    L.... D....

    I hear inspiration not rip off.

  64. l.... ....

    Great song

    @Ravish Ogre
    No way!
    It inaudible

  66. o.... ....

    An incredible, timeless metal blitz:-)

  67. K.... L....

    PRECAPTURE MKULTRACIADIRECTOR CAN STAY DEAN KURT

  68. T.... i....

    Fricking goose bumps... Kiske... what a voice

  69. C.... ....

    +Libby Grimm Yeah I know, that is indeed what I've found in Internet! From a recent listening in my car, which apparently has a better audio system than my laptop, I've started to believe he says "all systems ready" at the end... Still makes sense... I'm still convinced on the engine part though! :-)

  70. C.... ....

    @Simafour Hi, I'm so happy I'm not the only one wondering what they say at the beginning!
    I've found several versions googling some of the words I recognize but none of them can be the "true" one 'cause some words just don't sound like the speech, plus I still haven't found one version where the writer managed to understand the 2 "inaudible" parts at the very beginning when they say their code name.
    What I've got is: "ununderstandable part" can you hear me over? This is "ununderstandable part" I can hear you over. Listen, we're on defcon five, this is not a test, I repeat, this is not a test, this is operation Sunrise over. Roger. Check your radar. Radar checked. Check your engine. Engine checked. "Ununderstandable part". May God be with you.
    Many versions I've found have system instead of engine, but to me it doesn't sound like what the voices say, especially the last ununderstandable part, it should be "all systems/engines run", but really I can't hear the rUn part... Then again my mothertongue is Italian so I can't be 100% sure! If an English speaker can fill the gaps/correct any wrong part I'd appreciate it very much! \m/

    C.... ....

    @ChainyLaphroaig As far as anyone knows, and I can make out, this is how it goes;

    Six Sam [Inaudible] can you hear me over 

    Yes This is [Inaudible] I can hear you over
    Listen we are on defcon five, this is not a test I repeat this is not a test 
    This is operation sunrise, over
    Roger Check your radar 
    Radar check 
    Check system 
    System check
    All systems run 
    May God be with you

    C.... ....

    +ChainyLaphroaig I'm more interested in the fact I keep hearing "free satan" instead of "please save us".

    C.... ....

    +Libby Grimm Big Sam, this is Silver Bullet, can you hear me over?
    Yes, this is Silver Bullet, I can hear you over.
    Listen we are on Defcon five, this is not a test I repeat this is not a test
    This is Operation Sunrise, over
    Roger
    Check your radar
    Radar check
    Check engines
    Engines check
    All systems run
    May God be with you

    That is what I get from it, and it is also worth noting that Defcon Five is the lowest level of alert the US have. Still one of my favourite Helloween songs even after all these years.

  71. R.... ....

    God damn, the part at 2:00 gives me the chills every single time. Kiske is one in a billion singer!

    R.... ....

    +Rqoiz Yep, still does it to me al these years later, same as it did the first time I heard it.

  72. C.... A....

    people talks about kiske and kai, but i prefer ingo here in  save us..

    C.... A....

    +Cik Aman because ingo is no more.

  73. H.... B....

    Damn you Hansen, you were the brains and the balls in this band. You're the absolute best.

  74. I.... U....

    This song has that Walls of Jericho feeling, know what I mean? It's that feeling but with Kiske.

    I.... U....

    +Dark Knight The mood of the instruments gives the impression of freedom. This is very noticeable in their discography with Kiske (1986-1993). He had this ethereal and visceral freedom about him; you could hear how blue-eyed he used to be.

    I.... U....

    well, according to eciclopaedia metallum, this song was written way before the keeper albums, so maybe that's why

    I.... U....

    1982 to be exact, which is even before Walls Of Jericho

    I.... U....

    if this song would've been released in walls, people would have lost their shit

  75. e.... e....

    BEST FUCKING SPEED METAL EVER!!!!

  76. R.... ....

    What I would give to see Helloween in 1988 playing the Keepers albums live!

    R.... ....

    RandyVanHalen1 you're not kidding the keepers albums are their best albums ever and also two of the best albums ever ever ever made.

    R.... ....

    lizzy Q and ever and ever that's true
    and it will stay forever
    the stuff pf today isn't stuff for legends

  77. E.... K....

    Isn't the one singing Bruce Dickinson? I'm really confused please somebody answer me!

  78. h.... ....

    i hope this is the direction unisonic will go into with a few songs again because this is a one of a kind song wich only kiske can sing!

    h.... ....

    Unisonic's new tune "Your Time Has Come" has a similar feel at times, and is largely sung around D#5-E5, just like this song.

    h.... ....

    @David Carlton find shelter sound way more like this one :)

  79. R.... A....

    -''The Best Song In The Entire Album! Along With 'I Want Out' Brings Back Memories''-  

  80. S.... ....

    Hi, boys and girls!
    Please write what they say at the very beginning of the song, before the first verse
    I realized only "...we under attack...", "....Over!" and "...Roger!"

    PS Because my english baaad :(

    S.... ....

    Simafour Too late to call for the priest. That what he said

  81. R.... ....

    Ruben have you listened to Black Sabbath they are SUPER Christian just listen to forever after.

    R.... ....

    i thought i was the only one that saw that. soo trueee

  82. M.... ....

    Heavy Metal is not satanism. Go listen to Absolution Day by Theocracy, and tell me it's satanist. This song isn't satanist, either. You're blinding yourself in ignorance.

    M.... ....

    Yep. The band 'Mortification' whos music is heavier than 'metal', puts the satanic theory to rest once and for all.

  83. a.... ....

    or ..Jenova?

  84. D.... R....

    THIS SONG IS ABOUT THE COMING APOCALYPSE AND THE WAR OF JUDGEMENT DAY HEAVY METAL IS NOT ONLY SATANISM IT COMES IN CHRISTIAN THEMES AS WELL SAVES US OH JESUS CHRIST NAME WE PRAY TO OUR HOLY FATHER JEHOVA

  85. d.... a....

    rocker

  86. S.... ....

    this song really got me into fast heavy metal kick ass type of metal with high vocals fast drummimg good bass playing and blazing guitars

  87. A.... ....

    Y las cuerdas vocales tambien!

  88. B.... R....

    You,sir,are CORRECT!!!

  89. R.... G....

    Clássica!!!
    \../

  90. M.... W....

    Exaggerate more. Pretty bad method for insulting.

  91. R.... S....

    oh yea lol i just notice they have teh same title and are similar style bands thought it was a cover. i haven't listened to that gamma ray song in a long time

  92. A.... M....

    1) Gamma Ray used the sentence "Save us and damn the machine" and song title is "Damn the machine"; the music is differen too;
    2) Kai Hansen written both the song and we can't say he copy himself:it's his stile!

  93. A.... M....

    Uno degli album migliori della storia del Metal, ha fatto e fa tuttora scuola nell'ambito del Poewr Metal.

  94. D.... C....

    Save us!!!!!

  95. b.... j....

    Guy so sorry!!! Now I feel terrible it was actually before I started Spanish class and our geography teacher is REALLY strict about us learning about explorers. So sorry....
