When the Stillness Comes - Slayer

Blood was like paste on the walls

Bodies lay lifeless like dolls

A moment that felt like days

Lives extinguished in a rage

So nauseous I don’t realize

Incessantly feeding the flies

In the moment of visceral haze

The last thing you see are my crazed eyes

The last thing you see are my eyes

Fear lies beneath your facade

In panic you scream for your God

No way I’ll ever abstain

Blood falls from the ceiling like rain

Patiently unleash my violence

Ingesting the sweet sound of your silence

In darkness this feeling I love

To be covered in blood… blood from above

This violence finally sets me free

Brings demons back to torture me

There’s no god pulling at my strings

I’m above all sorrow faith can bring

Disengaged I see your face

An adrenaline rush I can’t replace

Hands around your neck

Your senses numb

Staring into your eyes when the stillness comes
