(lyrics araya/hanneman/king; music hanneman) 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] 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
