Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Black is the night
Metal we fight
Power amps set to explode
Energy screams
Magic and dreams
Satan records the first note
[Verse 2]
We chime the bell
Chaos in hell
Metal for maniacs pure
Fast melting steel
Fortune on wheels
Brain haemorrhage is the cure
[Chorus]
For BLACK METAL
BLACK METAL
BLACK METAL
BLACK METAL
BLACK METAL
Lay down your soul to the gods rock 'n roll
[Verse 3]
Freaking so wild
Nobody's mild
Giving it all that you've got
Wild is so right
Metal tonight
Faster than over the top
[Verse 4]
Open the door
Enter hell's core
Black is the code for tonight
Atomic force
Feel no remorse
Crank up the amps, now it's night
[Chorus]
BLACK METAL
BLACK METAL
BLACK METAL
BLACK METAL
BLACK METAL
[Verse 5]
Lay down your soul to the gods rock 'n roll
Metal ten fold through the deadly black hole
Riding hell's stallions bareback and free
Taking our chances with raw energy
[Verse 6]
Come ride the night with us
Rock hard and fight
United, my legions, we stand
Freak hard and wild for us
Give up your souls
Live for the quest of Satan's band
[Verse 7]
Let's go
[Verse 8]
Against the odds
Black metal gods
Fight to achieve our goal
Casting a spell
Leather and hell
Black metal gods rock 'n roll
[Verse 9]
Building up steam
Nuclear screams
Warheads are ready to fight
Black leather hounds
Faster than sound
Metal, our purpose in life
[Chorus]
BLACK METAL
BLACK METAL
BLACK METAL
BLACK METAL
BLACK METAL
Lay down your soul to the gods rock 'n roll
BLACK METAL
