The Iron Cross - 'Fear of the Dark' (Iron Maiden cover)

I am a man who walks alone
And when I'm walking a dark road
At night or strolling through the park
When the light begins to change
I sometimes feel a little strange
A little anxious when it's dark

[Chorus]
Fear of the dark, fear of the dark
I have a constant fear
That something's always near
Fear of the dark, fear of the dark
I have a phobia that someone's always there

[Verse 2]
Have you run your fingers down the wall
And have you felt your neck skin crawl
When you're searching for the light?
Sometimes when you're scared
To take a look, at the corner of the room
You've sensed that something's watching you

[Chorus]
Fear of the dark, fear of the dark
I have constant fear
That something's always near
Fear of the dark, fear of the dark
I have a phobia that someone's always there

[Verse 3]
Have you ever been alone at night
Thought you heard footsteps behind
And turned around and no-one's there?
And as you quicken up your pace
You find it hard to look again
Because you're sure there's someone there

[Chorus]
Fear of the dark, fear of the dark
I have constant fear
That something's always near
Fear of the dark, fear of the dark
I have a phobia that someone's always there

[Bridge]
Fear of the dark, fear of the dark
Fear of the dark, fear of the dark
Fear of the dark, fear of the dark
Fear of the dark, fear of the dark
Fear of the dark, fear of the dark
Fear of the dark, fear of the dark
Fear of the dark, fear of the dark
Fear of the dark, fear of the dark

[Verse 4]
Watching horror films the night before
Debating witches and folklore
The unknown troubles on your mind
Maybe your mind is playing tricks
You sense, and suddenly eyes fix
On dancing shadows from behind

[Chorus]
Fear of the dark, fear of the dark
I have constant fear
That something's always near
Fear of the dark, fear of the dark
I have a phobia that someone's always there
Fear of the dark, fear of the dark
I have constant fear
That something's always near
Fear of the dark, fear of the dark
I have a phobia that someone's always there

[Outro]
When I'm walking a dark road
I am a man who walks alone

Το συγκρότημα The Iron Cross μας έρχεται από την Ρουμανία. Δημιουργήθηκε προ εξαετίας από τον κιθαρίστα Andrei Cerbu. Το 2017 η αποχώρηση αρκετών μελών έβαλε την μπάντα στον "πάγο". Δύο χρόνια αργότερα ο Andrei επαναδραστηριοποίησε τους The Iron Cross (οι οποίοι στο μεσοδιάστημα κυκλοφόρησαν το ντεμπούτο τους "Go Away") με νέα μέλη. Στο YouTube κανάλι της μπάντας υπάρχουν (και) βίντεο με διασκευές σε κλασικά rock / hard rock / heavy metal τραγούδια. Ανάμεσά τους και ο ύμνος των Iron Maiden "Fear of the Dark"...

Bio: «The Iron Cross band was started in 2015 by Andrei Cerbu, because he wanted to play Heavy Metal. He was listening to the “parents” of this music style, like Iron Maiden, when he got the idea of making a teen band which could have limitless energy and ROCK the crowd!

They appeared on many stages in Romania, opening for groups like Trooper & Phoenix. Unfortunately, in 2017, several of the original band members moved on to other parts of their lives. So this project had to be left behind, but not forever!

The year 2019 knocked at the door and Andrei felt that it was time for a new beginning. He brought the band back to life with new members, all of them ready to ROCK! All the band members are from Iasi, Romania.

In 2018, The Iron Cross released their first album, “Go Away”, which has 7 songs. Unfortunately, because of the break this project had, it took 2 years to make an official release on all platforms of this album. You can find it on Spotify, iTunes, Amazon etc.»
