Death Knell – Demo Lyrics

[Verse 1: Papa Emeritus I]
Say, can you see the cross?
Inverted solemnly
A symbol for the goat
Of a thousand young

[Chorus: Papa Emeritus I]
Six! Six! Six!
Evoke the king of hell
Strike the death knell!
Death knell!
Death knell!
Death knell!

[Verse 2: Papa Emeritus I]
Say, can you hear the chimes?
Tolls now for the end
Bells call out their doom
As victor reaches womb

[Chorus: Papa Emeritus I]
Sex! Sex! Sex!
Recieve the king of evil
Of evil!

[Verse 3: Papa Emeritus I]
Can you say his name?
Carrier of the light
Legions of this seed
A child, a spouce will feed
[Chorus: Papa Emeritus I]
S-A-T-A-N
Under spell
Of the death knell!
Death knell!
Death knell!
Death knell!

  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
