Píseň: Crypts Of Eternity

Interpret:
Slayer
Album:
Hell Awaits
(Lyrics Araya/Hanneman/King; Music Hanneman/King) 


[Lead Hanneman] 


Devious to those unknown 
He walks below the land 
Alluring victims to their death 
Perish to the sand 


Master of the blackened arts 
Living his decree 
Thrives amongst the Seven Gates 
Searching for the keys 


[Chorus:] 
I have seen the darkened depths of Hell 
Sorcery beyond the witches' spell 
Robbed the crypts of Death's eternity 
Killed the priest and cursed him endlessly 


Chants of evil incantation 
Fill the murky night 
Free the Devil's knights of Hell 
Unleash their growing spite 


Directing power forcibly 
The fire of Hell is cast 
Resurrect from crypts of Death 
A demon from the past 


[Chorus] 


[Lead - Hanneman, King] 


Cringe with fear 
Violate the unbroken seal of Hell 
Death will come searching for 
Your mere soul 
Still you are eager to seek your fate 
All that lie here are remains of Death 


Grinding bones, screaming skulls 
Broken by the lapse of time 
Decay to powder, ashes to dust 
Diminishing, disintegrating 
Man's soul and mind 


[Lead - Hanneman] 


Empty space tracks throughout 
I make my claim 


[Lead - King] 


Darkness covers the world 
My Kingdom, my Domain
