When The Stillness Comes

  • Blood looks like paste on the wall
    Bodies lay lifeless like dolls
    A moment that felt like days
    Lives extinct with inner rage

    Noxious, I don't realize
    Incessantly making up lies
    In a moment of visceral hate
    The last thing you see on my grave
    Eyes
    The last thing you'll see are my eyes

    Beneath your facade
    Panic, you scream for your god
    No way out, ever abstain
    Blood falls from the ceiling like rain
    Patiently unleash my violence
    In (?) with sounds 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 that fate can bring
    Disengaged, I see your face
    I turn and rush, I can't replace
    Hands around your neck, your senses numb
    Staring into your eyes
    When the stillness comes Writer/s: JEFF HANNEMAN, KERRY KING, TOMAS E. ARAYA
