Tension lyrics

[Verse 1]
As the pendulum swings
Silently while you scream
There you lie, my plaything
Chemistry is everything

[Verse 2]
Here I fight with my thoughts
In this rage, my brain rots
On the edge, I still cling
Sanity is everything

[Verse 3]
Now I drown in your flaws
Ten times past the last straw
Constantly inspiring
Violence is everything

[Verse 4]
Fueling our dissension
Magnify the tension
Hatred pulses through me
Enemies are necessary

[Verse 5]
As you feel the time crawl
Mercy has no place at all
Elegant and bleeding
Decadence is everything
[Verse 6]
Slave to my obsession
Conflict and aggression
Conscience has no meaning
Misery is temporary

[Guitar Solo: Kerry King]

[Verse 7]
Now as I become death
Grasping at your final breath
Fighting as it disappears
Victory is everything

[Outro]
Though I can't forget you
Grief is not my virtue
I'll dream of your screaming
Memories are everything
