Altar of Sacrifice Lyrics

Artist: Slayer
Album: Live-Decade Of Aggression

(Lyrics - King, Music - Hanneman)

Waiting the hour destined to die
Here on the table of hell
A figure in white unknown by man
Approaching the altar of death
High priest awaiting dagger in hand
Spilling the pure virgin blood
Satan's slaughter, ceremonial death
Answer his every command

Death will come easy just close your eyes -
Dream of the friends you'll see
Heavenly failure losing again
Move on to a new form of life

Altar of sacrifice, curse of the damned
Confronting the evil you dread
Coalesce into one your shadow and soul
Soon you will meet the undead

(LEAD: HANNEMAN)

[Altar of sacrifice, curse of the damned
Confronting the evil you dread
Coalesce into one your shadow and soul
Soon you will meet the undead]

Enter to the realm of Satan!

(LEAD: HANNEMAN)

Blood turning black, the change has begun
Feeling the hatred of all damned in Hell
Flesh starts to burn, twist and deform
Eyes dripping blood realization of death
Transforming of five toes to two
Learn the sacred words of praise, hail Satan

(LEAD: HANNEMAN)

A gift of powers disposed upon you
Use them when you feel the need
Master the forces and powers of Satan
Controlling the creature's instinct
Drawn to the castles that float in the sky
Learn to resist the temptation
Watching the angels sift through the heavens
Endlessly search[ing] for salvation

(LEAD: KING)

lmao@Jesus!! To fkn funny

Awesome tune. I love Slayer. What bugs the shit outta me is people automatically assume your a satanic worshipper if you like Slayer.

The last asshole that accused me of that I skinned him alive. Lol.

Satan, prend ce corps que nous t�offrons aujourd�hui ; prend ce corps vierge souill� de notre semence ; prends ce bras dont la main se serre en vain sur la vie qui s�en va ; prend cette t�te en comm�moration de ta gloire ; prend ce sexe qui jamais ne bandera.
Prends le vase de notre semence encore humide de son sang et de ses excr�ments.

Que les cris de ce corps calme ta soif de revanche, que le sang de cet enfant soit un baume pour tes plaies.

Que ta s�ve gonfle nos sexes p�n�trant dans la chair de ces deux jeunes gar�ons : que leur bouche soit pleine de ton sperme, leurs mains pleines du sang du sacrifice, leur fesses pleines de nos bites d�acier.

Que les dents mordent dans la chair de l�enfant �cartel�, encore chaud d�une existence insens�e. Que l�urine coule � flots sur la chair meurtrie tandis que nos pieds trempent dans la s�ve du mal, mixture glorieuse signant la fin de l�Eden.
