One Thousand Days in Sodom by Venom Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 1981

Unholy city, a sinners delight
No one was spared out of mind, out of sight
Hatred and slaughter, degradation and lust
Self destruction never counting the cost
No one knew the suffering
Behind the city walls
No one heard the cry for help
No one heard the call
One thousand days in Sodom
One thousand days in Sodom
The ways of god forgotten
One thousand days in Sodom
Children slaughtered daily there, mothers by their sides
No mercy given, no matter how they cried
The smell of death was near, its presence ever near
The priests lay bound in chains, no one would ever hear
No one knew the blasphemy
The torture and the pain
No-one saw the madness
The priests, they died in vain
Day completes its cycle and night takes on its role
Satan's cloak shrouds the land and his children spill their fold
No golden cross of heaven or ancient key of kings
Could save the world of sinners when the midnight sabbath rings
Few could hear the suffering
And the pain of ripping flesh
But those who did were damned in hell
And breathed their final breath
One thousand days
One thousand years you've lived your life in hell
