Vortex Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Internal combustion
Multiple personalities
Terror inside of me
A mask of silent agony
Curse the falling rain
[Refrain]
The vortex of pain
[Verse 2]
As medieval as Merlin
A pact for power was made
Lucifer in transition
It's time, time the price was paid
Scorching the domain
[Refrain]
The vortex of pain
[Verse 3]
A telestic message
Written in torment
Howl out dirges
Like the horns of Jericho
Distorted faces writhing in rage
Walls of purgatory tumble down
Endless death, the jewels of a crown
The jewels of a crown...
[Outro]
The jewels of a crown...
[Guitar Solo: Marty Friedman]
