Red Before Black Complete Lyrics

Only One Will Die Lyrics

9 ContributorsOnly One Will Die LyricsA violent conflict between two foes
At close quarters, Pound and slash, the blood will flow
 
Barbaric melee, A hateful duel
Shared abhorrence gives the conflict fuel
 
Add to the fire
Lies
Resentment built for years
 
Now, it's time to end this
Fight until the death
Striking to kill
Only one
Only one will die
 
The cracking bones
And shattered teeth
Wounds are swelling
Lacerations running deep
 
Losing blood
But still we fight
Both resolved to end the other's life
 
The only answer: Hate
Can only end with death
 
 
Now, it's time to end this
Fight until the death
Striking to kill
Only one
Only one will die
 
Both of us are killers
Both of us are evil men
Unforgiving murderers today may kill again
 
Both of us will throttle
Strangling with rage
Both consumed by madness
Revenge has us enslaved
 
Both are badly wounded
And struggle to survive
Both are fighting to the death
But only one will die
 
Both of us will bludgeon
Both of us will pound
Facial bones will splinter soon
The blood will drench the ground
 
Both are rending flesh
Both are gouging eyes
Escalating violence
The brawl intensifies
 
 
Both of us will throttle
Strangling with rage
Both consumed by madness
Revenge has us enslaved
 
Both are badly wounded
And struggle to survive
Both are fighting to the death
But only one will die
 
Kill
The only answer: Hate
Can only end with death
 
Now, It's time to end this
Fight until the death
Striking to kill
Only one
Only one will die

Scavenger Consuming Death Lyrics

6 ContributorsScavenger Consuming Death LyricsHammers swing, cracking their skulls
Blades slash, spraying their blood
He waits, watching them kill
When they’re done, he will feed
 
Scavenger consuming death
Yield of violence gives him life
 
Scavenger consuming death
Parasite awaits your demise
 
Solo - O’Brien
 
Viscera, torsos torn
Chopping off legs and arms
Sounds of violence draw him near
Soon he’ll feed, soon he’ll feed
 
Scavenger consuming death
Yield of violence gives him life
 
Scavenger consuming death
Parasite awaits your demise
 
Scavenger consuming death
Body parts and severed heads
 
 
Scavenger consuming death
Human vulture seeks your end
 
Scavenger
Gruesome forager
Tracking murderers
What they leave behind will feed this ghoulish fiend
 
Cannibal
Waits for you to fall
Insatiable
Your mangled corpse will soon become his latest meal
 
They have died
Eat their flesh
Before they rot
 
Gnaw and tear
The fresh meat
Leave only bones
 
A morbid harvest, once alive
Murdered, butchered, eaten, they’re gone
Exploit the carnage, he survives
Hunting, waiting, reaping, death’s spawn
Eat them all
 
 
Solo - Barrett
 
Scavenger consuming death
Yield of violence gives him life
 
Scavenger consuming death
Parasite awaits your demise
 
Scavenger consuming death
Body parts and severed heads
 
Scavenger consuming death
Human vulture seeks your end

Hideous Ichor Lyrics

6 ContributorsHideous Ichor LyricsDecay, distinct and putrid
Moldering remnants compel
Fetor, the stench entices me
 
Singular insanity guiding me, driving me
Consume the putrefied rot
Bodies of the dead
Nourish me
 
Madness, obsessive hunger
Sickening urges demand
Offal, I crave voraciously
 
Cadaver in the cemetery beckoning, summoning
Ghastly fumes diffuse retch
Flowing from within
I must drink
 
Hideous ichor drips from the coffin
Inside the corpse has stirred
Horrors within my sustenance
But is is truly dead?
 
Hideous ichor exudes from the crypt
Necrotic but somehow alive
The eyes of the dead blankly stare
But did it truly die?
 
 
Siphoning of the blood
Plunging my hands in rot
Macabre desire, death
Macabre desire, death
 
Feeding this ghoulish urge
To give me strength this way
Macabre desire, death
Macabre desire, death
 
Was I hunting it
Or was it luring me
Macabre desire, death
Macabre desire, death
 
Hideous ichor drips from the coffin
Inside the corpse has stirred
Horrors within my sustenance
But is is truly dead?
 
Hideous ichor exudes from the crypt
Necrotic but somehow alive
The eyes of the dead blankly stare
But did it truly die?
