Praise Of Death Lyrics - Hell Awaits - Slayer

Deceased in mind, decree of death 

Blackened heart baptized in fire 

Exertion now, need to blitz 

Vicious ways brought up in hell 

Draw the line life or death 

Potent thrust excessive pain 

Massive dose, adrenalin 

Minor threat can not decline 

Stricken to live, hell on earth 

Shackled and bound we lie 

Praise of death, life's a dream 

We're only living to die 

Victim of life, insanity lives 

Deep in shock intensive care 

Tables turned, blast of strength 

Kill at once time to prevail 

And begin to crank, feel the rush 

Start to rage take to extremes 

Push too far, overkill 

Time to die no way to win 

Stricken to live, hell on earth 

Shackled and bound we lie 

Praise of death, life's a dream 

We're only living to die 

Running and hunting and slashing 

And crushing and searching 

And seeing and stabbing and shooting 

Thrashing and smashing and 

Burning destroying and killing 

And bleeding and pleading then death 

At mach ten velocity 

Pressure builds can't take the strain 

Life blood flows to its grave 

Dripping sweat, death shall erase 

Time to think, time to breath 

Feel the pulse life will expire 

Surging speed, hell a fast 

Cardiac cease to exist 

Stricken to live, hell on earth 

Shackled and bound we lie 

Praise of death, life's a dream 

We're only living to die
