Awakened I have become
   Light now slips away
   Manipulate your mind
   Darkness is my slave
  
   Taste the sins of Hell
   The blood that I so crave
   The last thing that you see
   Is the hunger in my eyes
  
   (Chorus)
   Blood sucking creatures of the night
   Nocturnal spectre hiding from the light
   Cries screaming out every fright
   Eagerly awaiting plight
   Apparitions from the pits of Hell
   Death plagues the streets in which they dwell
   Demented lust, the secrets they must keep
   Addicted to your blood
   At dawn they sleep
  
   Unveil the hidden coffin
   Lift the lid of terror
   Feel the deadly cold
   Freeze you from inside
  
   Perceiving your intentions
   To slay the phantom form
   Raise the stake in malice
   You cannot plunge it down
  
   [Chorus]
  
   (Lead - King, Hanneman)
  
   Beware the image unseen
   Stalks your soul
   Your corpse's redeem
  
   Eternal damnation you just reward
   A servant of our Lord
   By your accord
  
   Admonish of the cruciform
   Impalement
   Immortality's scorned
  
   Rise hold fast your faith
   To lie dormant
   Is certain Death
  
   [Driven by the instinct of centuries of horror
   Implanted along the brain of the sickening parasite
   Linked together by one trait
   The Hell-filled need to kill... kill... kill... kill... KILL]
  
   Emerging from their Hellish tomb
   Taking flight amidst the night
   The evening skies are raining Death
  
   Swooping down from shadowed skies
   Taking simple human form
   Shed their wings to stalk the mortal man
  
   Lock their jaws into your veins
   Satanic soldiers strike their prey
   Leaving corpses waiting for the change
  
   Blood dripping from the jaws of Death
   Not enough to satisfy
   They must drain your soul of life
