Slayer - Crypts Of Eternity lyrics

(Lead Hanneman)

Devious to those unknown

He walks below the land

Alluring victims to their death

Perish to the sand

Master of the blackened arts

Living his decree

Thrives amongst the Seven Gates

Searching for the keys

(Chorus)

I have seen the darkened depths of Hell

Sorcery beyond the witches' spell

Robbed the crypts of Death's eternity

Killed the priest and cursed him endlessly

Chants of evil incantation

Fill the murky night

Free the Devil's knights of Hell

Unleash their growing spite

Directing power forcibly

The fire of Hell is cast

Resurrect from crypts of Death

A demon from the past

(Chorus)

(Lead - Hanneman, King)

Cringe with fear

Violate the unbroken seal of Hell

Death will come searching for

Your mere soul

Still you are eager to seek your fate

All that lie here are remains of Death

Grinding bones, screaming skulls

Broken by the lapse of time

Decay to powder, ashes to dust

Diminishing, disintegrating

Man's soul and mind

(Lead - Hanneman)

Empty space tracks throughout

I make my claim

(Lead - King)

Darkness[?] covers the world

My Kingdom, my Domain
