[Verse 1]
Deceased in mind, decree of death
Blackened heart baptized in fire
Exertion, now need to blitz
Vicious ways brought up in Hell
Draw the line, life or death
Potent thrust, excessive pain
Massive dose, adrenaline
Minor threat cannot decline
[Chorus]
Stricken to live, Hell on Earth
Shackled and bound, we lie
Praise of death, life's a dream
We're only living to die
[Verse 2]
Victim of life, insanity lives
Deep in shock, intеnsive care
Tables turnеd, blast of strength
Kill at once, time to prevail
Begin to crank, feel the rush
Start to rage, take to extremes
Push too far, overkill
Time to die, no way to win
[Chorus]
Stricken to live, Hell on Earth
Shackled and bound, we lie
Praise of death, life's a dream
We're only living to die
[Lead - King]
[Bridge]
Running and hunting and slashing and crushing and
Searching and seeing and stabbing and shooting and
Thrashing and smashing and burning, destroying and
Killing and bleeding and pleading, then death
[Lead - King and Hanneman]
[Verse 3]
At Mach 10 velocity
Pressure builds, can't take the strain
Life blood flows to its grave
Dripping sweat, death shall erase
Time to think, time to breathe
Feel the pulse, life will expire
Surging speed, hell-a-fast
Cardiac, cease to exist
[Chorus]
Stricken to live, Hell on Earth
Shackled and bound, we lie
Praise of death, life's a dream
We're only living to die
[Lead - King]
