SLAYER - 1990 - "Seasons In The Abyss"

(Music: Hanneman & King / Lyrics: Araya & Hanneman)



High velocity bullet at close range

Can damage the mind

Shattering the skull shredding the brain

Severing the spine



Bury a round of lead in the chest

It's quite an impression

Imagine the innards of your soul

The infliction



(Chorus:)

Instinctive regression

With intent to kill

No regard of human life

Or the blood spilled



Solo: Hanneman



Riddled convulsions

Confetti of flesh

Scattered helplessly

Losing your control of physical facilities



Release the slide to cleanse inside

Prepare to anoint

Snap the tongue in groove discharged

To make my hallowed point



(Chorus)



The power of a gun

Used with conviction

Dispersed on excursions

Randomly kills its victims



My sweet revenge

Bitter in depression

The thrilling release

Of a hated deep persuasion



Solo: King



The power of a gun

Used with conviction

Diffused compulsions

Unending repercussions



Violent emotion

Screaming revolution

Spasm[at]ic convulsions

Death an empty gun



Solo: Hanneman, King
