Angel of Death Lyrics by Slayer

Soundtrack to the Apocalypse

1986

[Produced by Rick Rubin and Slayer]
[Intro]
Ah!
[Verse 1]
Auschwitz, the meaning of pain
The way that I want you to die
Slow death, immense decay
Showers that cleanse you of your life
Forced in; like cattle, you run
Stripped out your life's worth
Human mice for the angel of death
Four hundred thousand more to die
[Chorus]
Angel of death
Monarch to the kingdom of the dead
[Verse 2]
Sadistic, surgeon of demise
Sadist of the noblest blood
Destroying without mercy
To benefit the Aryan race
Surgery with no anesthesia
Feel the knife pierce you intensely
Inferior, no use to mankind
Strapped down, screaming out to die
[Chorus]
Angel of death
Monarch to the kingdom of the dead
Infamous butcher
Angel of death
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
Pumped with fluid inside your brain
Pressure in your skull begins pushin' through your eyes
Burning flesh drips away
Test of heat burns your skin
Your mind starts to boil
Frigid cold cracks your limbs
How long can you last in this frozen-water burial?
Sewn together, joining heads
Just a matter of time 'til you rip yourselves apart
[Bridge]
Millions laid out in their
Crowded tombs
Sickening ways to achieve
The Holocaust
[Verse 4]
Seas of blood bury life
Smell your death as it burns deep inside of you
Abacinate, eyes that bleed
Praying for the end of your wide-awake nightmare
Wings of pain reach out for you
His face of death staring down, your blood's running cold
Injecting cells, dying eyes
Feeding on the screams of the mutants he's creating
[Bridge]
Pathetic, harmless victims left to die
Rancid angel of death
Flying free
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
Angel of death
Monarch to the kingdom of the dead
Infamous butcher
Angel of death
Angel of death
