VENOM LYRICS

1. Straight To Hell

The gates slam in your face
Chill creeps down your spine
No one will let you in
Your guilty of the crimes
The judge and jury shout
Redemption denied -- yeah !
You're going straight to hell
You're going straight to hell
You hear them calling
Dark figures start the game
Then you start falling
They're calling out your name
No place in purgatory
You're heading for the flames -- hell
You scream repentance
Dressed in sackcloth and ash
But they won't save you
You're sentenced for the lash
No time to make amends
Satan starts to laugh -- yeah

2. The Power And The Glory

Messiah the liar burning in Hell's fire
Forsaken awaken tragedy destiny
Magdalene open sin laughing crying
Enemy insanity Nazarene forgives thee

The Power and the Glory
The Power and the Glory

Arrogant sycophant up on high on a rant
Terminate agitate bring him down with a bang
Pity ye old clergy grovelling beasting
Tear them down hear me now tear them down now

The Power and the Glory
The Power and the Glory

They say the Devil wore black
As He walked through the pack
Of the unsuspecting fools
They were transfixed by the stars
And the words from afar
Using post hypnotic tools
When the enemy came
They were really all to blame
And who's cheating in the game

Open wide run a mile genocide taking lives
Tetragram holy man solitude living lies
Power trip papal sick ludicrous and unwise
Misanthrope from a rope on a cross die

The Power and the Glory
The Power and the Glory

3. Hand Of God

Watch the Holy war
Armies by the score
Is this all that we deserve
Look around and see
All the killing fields
Like a lesson we must learn

All the misery - Hand of God
Violence and disease - Hand of God
Population losing faith
Devastating crime - Hand of God
No respect for life - Hand of God
Challenges that we must face - by the Hand of God

Desolate angels
Ride tsunami swells
Blame the climate on mankind
They say he sees all
Watching as we fall
Turns his back like he is blind

All the misery - Hand of God
Violence and disease - Hand of God
Population losing faith
Devastating crime - Hand of God
No respect for life - Hand of God
Challenges that we must face - by the Hand of God

Look deep inside - I shall fear no evil
Watch with evil eyes - I shall fear no evil

Look inside the shadow - valley of the shadow
The valley of the shadow of death - I shall fear no evil

When the end is near
And all there is fear
Can't justify those old beliefs
Raise your voice and yell
Smash the old church bells
Get up off your bended knees

All the misery - Hand of God
Violence and disease - Hand of God
Population losing faith
Devastating crime - Hand of God
No respect for life - Hand of God
Challenges that we must face - by the Hand of God

4. Fall From Grace

Myths and legends gather pace
Victims of the human race
Looks like a chemical war
Leaves you calling out for more
In the realm of danger signs
Forces you to commit crimes
In the end it's all it takes
You and all you know forsakes

Sakes - sakes - fall from grace

Born amidst a holy war
Sow the seeds with hook and claw
Blood rich soil increases yield
Growing in the battlefield
You can't know the future see
In a coma on your knees
Whispers from a smokey stake
Hypocrite for your god's sake

Sake - sake - fall from grace

Fall from grace

Frozen in a timeless gaze
Nothing left, you fall from grace
What's the point in killing time
Waiting for your time to die
Leave the lies for yesterday
Chasing dragons every way
Crack it open with a pick
All at once it makes you sick

Sick - sick - fall from grace

5. Hell

All the hate in this world I adore
Thousands of legions
With black heart core
Riding high are my horsemen of four
Nothings safe -
No one cares -- that's a fact

Hell - unholy kingdom ruled by war
Hell - pain and fury is the law
Hell - fire and brimstone I desire
Hell - Satan on his throne of fire

There's no love
For the priestess of hate
Babylon nests
In her kingdom and wars
Evil sanctuary screams and gyrates
Living hell -- lake of fire -- infernal
On the night that
The black angel fell
I opened the gate
For an entrance to hell
When he saw his
New kingdom to dwell
Set alight -- in the fire - of his rage

6. Evil Perfection

Looks across tile land - immortal through
The timeless sand - guttural
An ancient quest - an ancient rite
To find perfection evil
Demonic possession
Satanic aggression
My evil perfection
Demonic aggression
Satanic possession
My evil perfection
Evil comes or age - look at me
Turn another page - impatiently
A long lost dream - a long lost soul
To seek perfection evil
Calling out his name - religiously
Crowley went insane - undoubtedly
A book of spells - a curse of death
Beware perfection evil
Evil perfection

7. Stab U In The Back

Evil intentions - no apprehensions
Never repents when - consumed with greed
A dark alliance - forget compliance
Ever defiant - that's how it's seen

Stab you in the back
Stab you in the back
Stab you in the back
Stab you in the back

A vicious vampyr - burning in hellfire
Religious satire - won't save your soul
Forget the passion - accursed lies and
He takes it all on - then you're the fool

Stab you in the back
Stab you in the back
Stab you in the back
Stab you in the back

Stab you in the back
Stab you in the back
Stab you in the back
Stab you in the back

8. Armageddon

Smell the stench of the sick and the dying
Hear the cry of the lost ones denying
Hear the crack of your back, nothing's left
The soul surrenders - death remembers

Armageddon - end of days
Armageddon - end of ways

Pay the price for the world now ending
Cupboards bare all resources fading
It's too bad that you pray without trust
Life's diminished - our world's finished

Armageddon - end of days
Armageddon - end of ways

Now the end is in sight, you're all crying
Soon we'll all turn to dust, I'm not lying
Looking back, it's a fact, you had wealth
Laugh ignorance - now pay penance

Armageddon - end of days
Armageddon - end of ways
Armageddon - end of days
Armageddon - Armageddon

9. Kill The Music

The sad pretender reneges on every deal
Return to sender transparent lies revealed
The question corpses trapped
In a silent scream
Can't last the courses
Run a mile, kill the dream

The cult of larceny
Kill the music - kill the music
There's no integrity
Kill the fucking music

You're paranoia at finding out the truth
Your game is over it's time to cut you loose
A final last chance to prove your doubters wring
Now there's no last laugh
Lost all cred, stole the song

The cult of larceny
Kill the music - kill the music
You've no integrity
Kill the fucking music

She came to see you, offered it on a plate
Then panic struck you, pretending to be straight
Your basic hygiene is zero, not a bit
Your life is unclean, work it out, time to quit

The cult of larceny
Kill the music - kill the music
There's no integrity
Kill the fucking music

The cult of larceny
Kill the music - kick the habit
You've no integrity
Kill the fucking music

10. Evilution Devilution

They pushed the button
And the sky turned instant black
They wouldn't heed the signs
Instead they heard attack
The end is nigh for this world
We scorched the skies
Now all we have is darkness
And our graves to lie

Evilution - devilution
Metamorphosis

Then flicked a coin and wished
Now like a ticking bomb
Genetic dynamite

Jumping ten steps back
Releasing hybrid germs
To multiply in packs
Mutated gene selections

Stressed in black - marches out to war
Screams attack - screams attack
Streams of black - for the overlord
Time to fight - time to fight
Fight or flight - swift blow to the head
Blackened night - mercy for the dead

The blood sky's calling you
You don't know what to do
The skies are bleeding yeah

Scream and shout - scream and shout
Shout it out - looking for release
Sharpened knife - sharpened knife
Sharpened life - hiding from the beast
Take a bite - take a bite
Bite is right - taste the winds of change
Watch them fight - watch them fight
Fuck and fight - bleeding for their rage

The blood sky's calling you
You don't know what to do
The skies are bleeding yeah

Blood sky bleeding

Watch your back - watch your back
Watch them back - this is where you die
Hold on tight - hold on tight
Hold it right - temper hides the cries
Bleeding axe - bleeding axe
Then attacks - blood raining down
Sink or swim - sink or swim
Seek to win - hand your king his crown

The blood sky's calling you
You don't know what to do
The skies are bleeding yeah

12. USA For Satan

There's a land that's quite unique
Warriors roamed for centuries
All they knew was harmony
Not the world's atrocities

But one day - demons came
Killing creed - start to breed

USA - USA - a suitable location
USA - USA - USA - USA for Satan

Salem's witches bred like rats
Inquisition twisting facts
Fastest gun is hunted down
Comes to rest in old ghost town

Sorcery - slavery
Hang 'em high - watch them die

USA - USA - the Devil's destination
USA - USA - USA - USA for Satan

Dark recession poverty
Gangsters prohibition breeds
Angels ride on bikes from Hell
Terrorists with bombs to sell

Deadly snakes - fires and quakes
Rock n' roll - UFO's

USA - USA - a satanic nation
USA - USA - USA - USA for Satan

13. Dirge - The Awakening
