The Grip of Death Lyrics


Enclosed in this cell, like a corpse in a tomb

Death wreaks around you, awaiting your

doom

Punishment of pain, merciless death

Pray for redemption, draw your last breath

CHORUS

Your sentence is drawing near, your fate is

closing hard

The plague of death infests you, your

nerves are being scared

Your brain is filled with evil, your heart a

hollow shell

The death card has been signed, committed

into hell

All thoughts of being saved you can't allow

The icy grip of death's upon you now

Scared from whips by guards who've said

Kiss the ground it will soon be your bed

Your body is starved, your ribs have come

through

Feed on the rats before they feed on you

CHORUS

(solo-BARATH)

The guards have come to get you, don't try

to punch or kick

Say good-bye to life it's over pretty quick

The priest, he has arrived to read the final

rite

Now all is said and done it's time to say

good night

CHORUS
