Hell Awaits

(Lyrics Araya/Hanneman/King; Music Hanneman) 


Awakened I have become 
Light now slips away 
Manipulate your mind 
Darkness is my slave 


Taste the sins of Hell 
The blood that I so crave 
The last thing that you see 
Is the hunger in my eyes 


[Chorus] 
Blood sucking creatures of the night 
Nocturnal spectre hiding from the light 
Cries screaming out every fright 
Eagerly awaiting plight 
Apparitions from the pits of Hell 
Death plagues the streets in which they dwell 
Demented lust, the secrets they must keep 
Addicted to your blood 
At dawn they sleep 


Unveil the hidden coffin 
Lift the lid of terror 
Feel the deadly cold 
Freeze you from inside 


Perceiving your intentions 
To slay the phantom form 
Raise the stake in malice 
You cannot plunge it down 


[Chorus] 


[Lead - King, Hanneman] 


Beware the image unseen 
Stalks your soul 
Your corpse's redeem 


Eternal damnation you just reward 
A servant of our Lord 
By your accord 


Admonish of the cruciform 
Impalement 
Immortality's scorned 


Rise hold fast your faith 
To lie dormant 
Is certain Death 


(Driven by the instinct of centuries of horror 
Implanted along the brain of the sickening parasite 
Linked together by one trait 
The Hell-filled need to kill... kill... kill... kill... KILL) 


Emerging from their Hellish tomb 
Taking flight amidst the night 
The evening skies are raining Death 


Swooping down from shadowed skies 
Taking simple human form 
Shed their wings to stalk the mortal man 


Lock their jaws into your veins 
Satanic soldiers strike their prey 
Leaving corpses waiting for the change 


Blood dripping from the jaws of Death 
Not enough to satisfy 
They must drain your soul of life
