[Intro – Crushing Groove Metal Riff] [Deep Male Shout] Straight out the gate— Relentless force! [Fast Heavy Guitar Riff] [Verse 1 – Rough Aggressive Male Vocals] Torment’s the toll You settle at last. Subjugation strikes And holds you fast. A treacherous dive, No chance to escape. Iron shackles twist Your will out of shape. They blind your eyes, They poison your mind. We break so quickly When nothing remains behind. [Pre-Chorus – Tense Rough Vocals] Your eyes will meet The breaking light. The words in stone Still burn tonight. They pierce your heart, They chill your bones. At the final gate— You stand alone! [Chorus – Massive Aggressive Shouted Vocals] ANNIHILATION! Cast into the burning well! ANNIHILATION! Hear the iron warning bell! ANNIHILATION! No salvation, no farewell! ANNIHILATION! Face the fire! Burn in hell! [Short Lead Guitar Fill] [Verse 2 – Aggressive Rhythmic Vocals] A petrified heart Still reaches for the sky. Bound by rusted chains, Commanded to comply. A cruel decree, A sentence carved in steel. Every spike a warning, Every wound becomes too real. This fortress grows, Its shadows seal the gates. Did fate create these walls, Or did you choose your fate? [Pre-Chorus – Tense Rough Vocals] Your eyes will meet The breaking light. The words in stone Still burn tonight. They pierce your heart, They chill your bones. At the final gate— You stand alone! [Chorus – Massive Aggressive Shouted Vocals] ANNIHILATION! Cast into the burning well! ANNIHILATION! Hear the iron warning bell! ANNIHILATION! No salvation, no farewell! ANNIHILATION! Face the fire! Burn in hell! [Guitar Solo – Fast Aggressive Shredding Lead] [Short Harmonized Guitar Passage] [Drum Fill] [Breakdown – Crushing Half-Time Groove] Bow down! Face the flame! No crown! No name! Stone by stone, The fortress falls! One final cry— ANNIHILATION CALLS! [Final Chorus – Heavier and More Aggressive] ANNIHILATION! Cast into the burning well! ANNIHILATION! Hear the iron warning bell! ANNIHILATION! Break the chains! Crush their will! ANNIHILATION! ANNIHILATION! [Crushing Outro Riff] [Deep Sinister Laughter] Ha... Ha... Ha... Ha... [Final Shout] ANNIHILATION!
