There's a tattooed symbol underneath my sleeve An iron glove over a hand of steel You can't touch me Don't touch me All for one, and one for me Listen well, and I'll set you free You can trust me For eternity No promise Is honest In a world of change I rule the ruins with passion and pain I rule the ruins Sinner or saint Fortune or fate Alive and well in this livin' hell I survived it all, now it's time to tell Can you hear me? Do you hear me? Once a tattered soul on bended knees With one hand to God, I felt the devil's breeze I begged, "Help me! Won't you rescue me?" One promise dishonest And everything will change I rule the ruins with passion and pain I rule the ruins Sinner or saint Fortune or fate There's a tattooed symbol underneath my sleeve Iron glove over a hand of steel I rule the ruins I rule the ruins I rule the ruins With passion and pain I rule the ruins Sinner and saint I rule the ruins I rule the ruins I rule the ruins I rule the ruins I rule the ruins
