Silent Scream lyrics

Nightmare, the persecution

A child's dream of death.

Torment, ill forgotten

A soul that will never rest.

Guidance, it means nothing

In a world of brutal time.

Electric, circus, wild,

Deep in the infant's mind.

Silent scream

Bury the unwanted child.

Beaten and torn

Sacrifice the unborn.

Shattered, another child

Bearer of no name.

Restrained, insane games

Suffer the children condemned.

Scattered, remnants of life,

Murder a time to die.

Pain, sufferaged toyed,

Life's little fragments destroyed.

Silent scream

Crucify the bastard son.

Beaten and torn

Sanctify lives of scorn.

[Lead: King]

Life preordained

Humanity maintained.

Extraction termination

Pain's agonizing stain.

Embryonic death,

Embedded in your brain.

Suffocation, strangulation,

Death is fucking you insane.

Nightmare, the persecution

A child's dream of death.

Torment, ill forgotten

A soul that will never rest.

Innocence withdrawn in fear.

Fires burning can you hear

Cries in the night.

[Lead: Hanneman]
