[offset:500]
[00:11]Fear runs wild in the veins of the world
[00:13]The hate turns the skies jet black
[00:15]Death is assured in future plans
[00:17]Why live if there's nothing there
[00:20]Spectors of doom await the moment
[00:22]The mallet is sure and precise
[00:24]Cover the crypts of all mankind
[00:26]With cloven hoove begone
[01:51][00:55][00:28]Sadistic minds
[01:53][00:58][00:30]Delay the death
[01:55][01:00][00:33]Of twisted life
[01:58][01:02][00:35]Malicious world
[00:38]The crippled youth try in dismay
[00:40]To sabotage the carcass Earth
[00:42]All new life must perish below
[00:44]Existence now is futile
[00:46]Decrepit breath, vile in its stench
[00:51]A world in decay
[00:53]Transgressor is as one
[01:10](Lead - King)
[01:19](Lead - Hanneman)
[01:42]Convulsions take the world in hand
[01:44]Paralysis destroys
[01:47]Nobody's out there to save us
[01:49]Brutal seizure now we die
[Chorus]
