Slayer lyrics : "At Dawn They Sleep"

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
