Lyrics

Captor of Sin [Violent Brains]

[Lead - Hanneman]

[Verse 1]

Harlots of hell, spread your wings

As I penetrate your soul

Feel the fire shoot through your body

As I slip into your throne

Cast aside, do as you will

I care not how you plead

Satan's child now stalks the earth

Born from my demon seed

[Chorus]

Hot wings of hell

Burns in my wake

Death is what you pray

Behold, captor of sin

[Verse 2]

Infernal slaves of manipulation

Captive of my vice

Abandon God, the helpless one

To relieve you of your plight

Subversive action will not help

It will strengthen me

I see decline your every move

Death, your final plea

[Chorus]

Hot wings of hell

Burns in my wake

Death is what you pray

Behold, captor of sin

[Bridge]

Your skin turns to leather

I ignite your timid blood

You feel my lethal touch

As I grasp your weary soul

I'll take you down into the fire

[Lead - King and Hanneman]

[Verse 1]

Harlots of hell, spread your wings

As I penetrate your soul

Feel the fire shoot through your body

As I slip into your throne

Cast aside, do as you will

I care not how you plead

Satan's child now stalks the earth

Born from my demon seed

[Chorus]

Hot wings of hell

Burns in my wake

Death is what you pray

Behold, captor of sin
