Lyrics
R.I.P.
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The screams and the dreams and the nightmares it seems
Are from Hell
They lurk in the churchyard and rise from the soil
Those who dwell
They come from a cult of evil and bad
No relent
To search for the body they seek there at night
Whose consent
Oh yeah they're grave snatchers, yeah church gate-crashers.
Lucifer drives in today
Grave snatchers, yeah church gate-crashers
Messing with the sacred way
The corpse it is taken to Satanist's Hill
For its fate
Where hundreds of demons and creatures from Hell
There do wait
Its heart does not beat but its body is given to Hell
The air it is silent and all that you hear is his bell
Oh yeah they're grave snatchers, yeah church gate-crashers
Mesin with the sacred way
Grave snatchers, yeah church gate-crashers
Lucifer drives in today
With many strange ways here on this earth
I do fear
For many a soul that rests in the church
It is clear
Although they are dead and cannot move
They can't rest
For when darkness falls, the snatchers from Hell
They do quest
Oh yeah they're grave snatchers, church gate-crashers
Messing with the sacred way
Grave snatchers, yeah church gate-crashers
Stealing the bodies for prey
Grave snatchers, yeah church gate-crashers
Lucifer drives in today
Grave snatchers, yeah church gate-crashers
Leaving a hole where he lay
Oh where he lay
Just greet their deaths today
Leaving a hole where he lay
