Catatonic Lyrics by Slayer

Christ Illusion

2006

[Verse 1]
Fear is just interpretation
Feeds my motivation
Our time together is
A bloodbath of serenity
Plead no more
There's no confusing the finale
Excitation
My rancid passion is electrified

[Pre-Chorus]
Accept this
My religion of torture
I can't see any purity
Just imperfection and obscenity

My blood-soaked hands devise
Your slow, methodic demise
Asphyxiate the world
It's blind without me

[Chorus 1]
Catatonic
Catatonic
I'm numb in priceless solitude
Exhilarating keeping pieces of you near

[Lead – King]

[Verse 2]
Visions of decapitation
My mental masturbation
I try to resurrect
Your consciousness, your intellect
Once so pure
Your pain excites and it tests me
Excitation
The empty stare emitting from your eyes

[Refrain]
Embrace it
My religion of torture
All I see are the impurities
The imperfections and obscenities

[Lead – King and Hanneman]

[Pre-Chorus]
Accept it
My religion of torture
Excitation
The rancid passion coming from your eyes

My blood-soaked hands devise
Your slow, methodic demise
Asphyxiate the world
It's blind without me

[Chorus 2]
Catatonic
Catatonic
I'm numb in priceless solitude
Exterminating all the voiceless multitudes
I can't stop because it's so hypnotic
Catatonic

[Outro]
Catatonic
