Lyrics

Mind Control

[Verse 1]

Unknown are the caverns of the mind

New realms of affliction lurk inside

Unbound massive mental energy

Your last breaths taken from you easily

[Verse 2]

Incoherence disrupts your rationale

Involuntary your last confessional

No sense of being, missing segments of time

Inconsistency is feeding on your mind

[Guitar Solo: Jeff Hanneman]

[Bridge]

Mind control, pain unfolds

I own all your sensations

Weakening your reasoning

Mesmeric full demolition

Hypnotized, victimized

Behold the threshold to the web

Screaming souls fear echoes

Piercing boundaries of death

[Guitar Solo: Kerry King]

[Verse 3]

Penetration of the window to your soul

Deterioration of the mind, no self control

Temporarily comprehend no memories

Hollow carcass of a man is all I leave

[Verse 4]

Execution but a thought in the end

Slowly erasing your life and what has been

Passing victims in the land of secrecy

Cerebral death can come to you in your dreams
