Lyrics

Atrocity Vendor

[Verse 1]

You're staring at the atrocity vendor

A fuckin' equal-opportunity offender

A sociopath with methodical control

Voyeur of terror, watch the scenes of death unfold

[Pre-Chorus]

I'll never hesitate to beat you, break you

Sever every part of you

Light you up with kerosene

Watch you burn, watch you bleed

[Chorus]

I am torture redefined

Cancer shooting from my eyes

Hell, yes, agony is real

I can show you how it feels

Violence pulsing in my veins

Death forever reigns

[Lead – King]

[Verse 2]

In this chapel, I am the pastor

A fuckin' guarantee of your pending disaster

No limit to the anguish you'll see

Bear witness to this agony eternally

[Pre-Chorus]

I'll never hesitate to beat you, break you

Sever every part of you

Reeking of despair

This is no fuckin' nightmare

[Chorus]

I am torture unconfined

Cancer shooting from my eyes

Hell, yes, agony is real

I can show you how it feels

Violence pulsing in my veins

Death forever reigns

[Lead – King]

[Verse 3]

You're staring at the atrocity vendor

Motherfuckin' equal-opportunity offender

So many parts of you I'll possess

Trophies of appendage are mine to obsess

[Pre-Chorus]

I'll never hesitate to beat you, break you

Sever every part of you

First-class terror ride

Personal genocide

[Chorus]

I am evil unconfined

Cancer shooting from my eyes

Hell, yes, agony is real

I can show you how it feels

Violence pulsing in my veins

Death forever reigns
