Overkill
Overkill II (The Nightmare Continues)
[Intro]
Strangled in
This knot of sin
He returns
Again begins
Again to bend
And tear the will
A witness to
This Overkill
[Verse 1]
Awaken
Awaken in me
Through my eyes
Through my eyes, you will see
What is real
What is to be
All the madness
Madness in me
[Pre-Chorus]
You taste the blood
That I long for
Regain my strength
And complete my chore
[Verse 2]
Like a serpent
Poised to strike
Like the moon
That fills the night
You, the question
"Answer," they cried
You've always been
Destined to ride
[Pre-Chorus]
You taste the blood
That I long for
Regain my strength
And complete my chore
Passion rests in an empty will
The nightmare continues
[Chorus]
Into the night
A rider goes, then disappears
Out of the light
He reappears again
Beware:
One eye does follow you
To kill again
And again
[Bridge]
Slow and sure
A beating heart
Is sure to have
The killing start
The beating stops
Fin de la vie
Overkill
Rides again
[Chorus]
Into the night
A rider goes, then disappears
Out of the light
He reappears again
Beware:
One eye does follow you
To kill again
And again
[Verse 3]
A killer
Like no man
A faster death
By one's own hand
Safety comes
When the wind is still
This, the legend:
Overkill
[Bridge]
Taste the blood
That I long for
Regain my strength
And complete my chore
Passion rests in an empty will
The nightmare continues
Taste the blood
That I long for
Regain my strength
And complete my chore
Taste the blood
That I long for
Regain my strength
And complete my chore
[Instrumental Outro]
