Lyrics that conjure up visual horror

[Shazbut]

Hi everyone,

What lyrics and/or music have you ever heard that conjures up very imaginative visual imagery in your head?

I have a few but here's one to start off:

Orgasmatron - Motorhead.

I am the one, Orgasmatron, the outstretched grasping hand
My image is of agony, my servants rape the land
Obsequious and arrogant, clandestine and vain
Two thousand years of misery, of torture in my name
Hypocrisy made paramount, paranoia the law
My name is called religion, sadistic, sacred whore.

I twist the truth, I rule the world, my crown is called deceit
I am the emperor of lies, you grovel at my feet
I rob you and I slaughter you, your downfall is my gain
And still you play the sycophant and revel in you pain
And all my promises are lies, all my love is hate
I am the politician, and I decide your fate

I march before a martyred world, an army for the fight
I speak of great heroic days, of victory and might
I hold a banner drenched in blood, I urge you to be brave
I lead you to your destiny, I lead you to your grave
Your bones will build my palaces, your eyes will stud my crown
For I am Mars, the god of war, and I will cut you down.

Slayer - Cult


Oppression is the Holy Law
In God I distrust
In time His monuments will fall
Like ashes to dust
Is war and creed the master plan?
The Bible's where it all began
Its propaganda sells despair
And spreads the virus everywhere

Religion is hate
Religion is fear
Religion is war
Religion is rape
Religion's obscene
Religion's a whore

The pestilence of Jesus Christ
There never was a sacrifice
No man who upon the crucifix
Beware the cult of purity
Infectious imbecility
I've made my choice
666!


Corruption breeds the pedophile
Don't pray for the priest
Confession finds the lonely child
God preys on the weak
You think your soul can still be saved
I think you're fucking miles away
Scream out loud, here's where you begin
Forgive me Father for I have sinned!


Religion is hate
Religion is fear
Religion is war
Religion is rape
Religion's obscene
Religion's a whore

The target's fucking Jesus Christ
I would've lead the sacrifice
And nailed him to the crucifix
Beware the cult of purity
Infectious imbecility
I've made my choice
666!

Jesus is pain
Jesus is gore
Jesus is the blood
That's spilled in war
He's everything
He's all things dead
He's pulling on the trigger
Pointed at your head!

Through the fear you're sold into the fraud
Revelation,
Revolution,
I see through your Christ illusion!



The war on terror just drags along
My war with god is growing strong
His propaganda sells despair
And spreads this violence everywhere


Religion is hate
Religion is fear
Religion is war
Religion is rape
Religion's obscene
Religion's a whore

There is no fucking Jesus Christ
There never was a sacrifice
TO man upon the crucifix
Beware the cult of purity
Infectious imbecility
I've made my choice
666!

[Dante'sInferno]

Just a reflection
Just a glimpse
Just a little reminder
Of all the what abouts
And all the might have
Could have beens
Another day
Some other way
But not another reason to continue
And now you’re one of us
The wretched

The hopes and prays
The better days
The far aways
Forget it

It didn’t turn out the way you wanted it to
It didn’t turn out the way you wanted it, did it?
It didn’t turn out the way you wanted it to
It didn’t turn out the way you wanted it, did it?

Now you know
This is what it feels like
Now you know
This is what it feels like

The clouds will part and the sky cracks open
And God Himself will reach His fucking arm through
Just to push you down
Just to hold you down
Stuck in this hole with the shit and the piss
And it’s hard to believe it could come down to this
Back at the beginning
Sinking
Spinning

And in the end
We still pretend
The time we spend
Not knowing when
You’re finally free
And you could be

But it didn’t turn out the way you wanted it to
It didn’t turn out quite the way that you wanted it

Now you know
This is what it feels like
Now you know
This is what it feels like

You can try to stop it but it keeps on coming

[Dante'sInferno]

It didn’t turn out the way you wanted it, did it?

TOOL - Eulogy

He had alot to say.
He had alot of nothing to say.
We'll miss him.

So long.
We wish you well.
You told us how you weren't afraid to die.
Well then, so long.
Don't cry.
Or feel too down.
Not all martyrs see divinity.
But at least you tried.

Standing above the crowd,
He had a voice that was strong and loud.
We'll miss him.
Ranting and pointing his finger
At everything but his heart.
We'll miss him.

No way to recall
What it was that you had said to me,
Like I care at all.

So loud.
You sure could yell.
You took a stand on every little thing
And so loud.

Standing above the crowd,
He had a voice so strong and loud and I
Swallowed his facade cuz I'm so
Eager to identify with
Someone above the ground,
Someone who seemed to feel the same,
Someone prepared to lead the way, with
Someone who would die for me.

Will you? Will you now?
Would you die for me?
Don't you fuckin lie.

Don't you step out of line.
Don't you fuckin lie.

You've claimed all this time that you would die for me.
Why then are you so surprised to hear your own eulogy?

You had alot to say.
You had alot of nothing to say.

Come down.
Get off your fuckin cross.
We need the fuckin space to nail the next fool martyr.

To ascend you must die.
You must be crucified
For your sins and your lies.
Goodbye...

[Dante'sInferno]

The Becoming....


I beat my machine
it’s a part of me
it’s inside of me
I’m stuck in this dream
it’s changing me
I am becoming
The me that you know, he had some second thoughts
He’s covered with scabs, he is broken and sore
The me that you know doesn’t come around much
That part of me isn’t here anymore

All pain disappears
it’s the nature of my circuitry
Drowns out all I hear
no escape from this
my new consciousness
The me that you know used to have feelings
But the blood has stopped pumping and he’s left to decay
The me that you know is now made up of wires
And even when I’m right with you I’m so far away

I can try to get away but I’ve strapped myself in
I can try to scratch away the sound in my ears
I can see it killing away all my bad parts
I don’t want to listen but it’s all too clear

Hiding backwards inside of me I feel so unafraid
Annie, hold a little tighter I might just slip away

It won’t give up it wants me dead
Goddamn this noise inside my head

Mr Self Destruct


I am the voice inside your head And I control you
I am the lover in your bed And I control you
I am the sex that you provide And I control you
I am the hate you try to hide And I control you

I take you where you want to go
I give you all you need to know
I drag you down I use you up
Mr. Self Destruct

I speak religion’s message clear And I control you
I am denial guilt and fear And I control you
I am the prayers of the naïve And I control you
I am the lie that you believe And I control you

I take you where you want to go
I give you all you need to know
I drag you down I use you up
Mr. Self Destruct

I am the needle in your vein And I control you
I am the high you can’t sustain And I control you
I am the pusher I’m a whore And I control you
I am the need you have for more And I control you
I am the bullet in the gun And I control you
I am the truth from which you run And I control you
I am the silencing machine And I control you
I am the end of all your dreams And I control you

I take you where you want to go
I give you all you need to know
I drag you down I use you up
Mr. Self Destruct

Slipknot - Purity Lyrics

Maze...psychopathic daze...I create this waste
Back away from tangents, on the verge of drastic
ways...can't escape this place...I deny your face
Sweat gets in my eyes, I think I'm slowly dying

Put me in a homemade cellar
Put me in a hole for shelter
Someone hear me please, all I see is hate
I can hardly breathe, and I can hardly take it

HANDS ON MY FACE OVER BEARING I CAN'T GET OUT
HANDS ON MY FACE OVER BEARING I CAN'T

Lost...ran at my own cost...hearing laughter, scoffed
Learning from the rush, detached from such and such
Bleak...all around me, weak...listening, incomplete
I am not a dog, but I'm the one your dogging

I am in a buried kennel
I have never felt so final
Someone find me please, losing all reserve
I am fucking gone, I think I'm fucking dying

HANDS ON MY FACE OVER BEARING I CAN'T GET OUT
HANDS ON MY FACE OVER BEARING I CAN'T

You all stare, but you'll never see
There is something inside me
You all stare, but you'll never see
There is something inside me
You all stare, but you'll never see
There is something inside me
You all stare, but you'll never see
There is something in you I despise

Cut me - show me - enter - I am
willing and able and never any danger to myself
Knowledge in my pain, knowledge in my pain
Or was my tolerance a phase?
Empathy, out of my way
I can't die
I can't die
I can't die
I can't... die

You all stare, but you'll never see
There is something inside me
You all stare, but you'll never see
There is something inside me
You all stare, but you'll never see
You all stare, but you'll never see
There is something in you I despise

despise
despise

Purity
Purity
Purity
Purity
Purity
Purity

This is one of my favorite Slipknot songs. I always picture a little boy getting buried alive underground.

2 Minutes to Midnight - Iron Maiden



Kill for gain or shoot to maim
But we don't need a reason
The golden goose is on the loose
And never out of season
Some blackened pride still burns inside
This shell of bloody treason
Here's my gun for a barrel of fun
For the love of living death.



The killers breed or the demons seed
The glamour,the fortune,the pain.
Go to war again,blood is freedoms stain
But dont you pray for my soul anymore.
2 Minutes to Midnight
The hands that threaten doom.
2 Minutes to Midnight
To kill the unborn in the womb.


The blind men shout let the creatures out
We'll show the unbelievers
The napalm screams of human flames
Of a prime time belsen feast...Yeah!
As for the reasons for the carnage cut their meat and lick the gravy,
We oil the jaws of the war machine and feed it with our babies.




The body bags and little rags of children torn in two
And the jellied brains of those who remain to put the finger right on you.
As the madmen play on words and make us all dance to their song.
To the tune of starving millions to make a better kind of gun.



Horrors of war?:)
