Lyrics Shadow Gallery

Shadow Gallery

Venom

It was a cold night

But by the dawn's light

The city streets began to swell and crawl

I emerge then

From the alley

The temptest spirit now in my sight

Well I have seen you

You walk the wire

Oh yes I know you very well

You've got place in Hamptons

Jet off to London

The threads are Italian

How very expensive

But oh you wear them well

As you serpentine

I am the bringer of the rain

And the foreteller of the pain

The end of days is near at hand

When God returns your just reward

Gets paid in Venom

I will be with the others

When the day breaks

as the earth shakes

I will be with the numbers

when the earth breaks

open for you

"Oh you kill me well it's quite amusing

I am drawn to your strength yeah you really believe

All the churning and discerning anger hatred and

resentment

Bet you've gone catatonic yeah right on over the edge"

And the greed of hell

Burns like gasoline

No ransom for your petty soul

I wipe your ashes from your gold

The end of days is near at hand

When all that was becomes a vapor

Slain by Venom

I wrap a curse around your throat

God's wrath reserved through time for you

"How dare you proselytize me

I run the show you fool"

Damnation

"Hell hath no fury"

Completely blind

"I ride the golden rail"

Vengeance

"From where?"

Vengeance

"I wait"

And so you ask and shall receive

Vengeance upon all evil men

Your time has come

All will repent

All the riches all the gold

"Why so bitter mortal man?"

Gain the world loose your soul

"I am lion you are lamb"

Stallions from the sky

Hellfire rain and demons fly

From those of us sent here

To kill your false religion now

All the riches all the gold

"I lie in waiting here"

Day turns endless night

Burned alive and scream

The end of days you're all alone

When Jesus mighty from his throne

Drowns you in Venom
