Beneath The Vilolence Lyrics - Singles - Fight

(Rob Halford/Brian Tilse/Scott Travis) 

Verse : 

Closed into self asylum, 

On ice thats paper thin. 

Wrapped up for good protection, 

Keep that from getting in. 

The shadows bring the shelter, 

Some refuge from the storm. 

Brakes on the helter skelter, 

To let these nerves reform. 

Retreat out of the mad house, 

Stop foaming at the mouth. 

Hand up this strange behavior, 

Cut through the overgrowth. 

Watch from a safer distance, 

Observe the next offence. 

See how the hands do murder, 

Then try to make some sense. 

Black vision 

Dead body 

Oppression 

Shock system 

Explosive 

Depression 

Disaster 

Malignant 

Infection 

Inhuman 

Sadistic 

Rejection 

These acts of tender mercies, 

Work on the purest soul. 

They tease and trap remorseless, 

Till six feet in the ground. 

Shut down till all is silent, 

Be still this seething blood, 

Turn off, release the trigger 

Let numbness do some good.
