"Surround, Kill, Devour" lyrics - CANNIBAL CORPSE

CANNIBAL CORPSE
"Surround, Kill, Devour"

Desperation
Starvation drives the pack
Society
Suffered full collapse
Desolation
The world we knew is lost
Consumption of their fellow man
The line that they now cross

[Chorus 1:]
Surround, kill, devour
The need for food compels
Lupine instincts long suppressed
Now help them to survive
Surround, kill, devour
They run their quarry down
The weakest have been singled out to kill

Shadowing
They're following the tracks
Ambushing
Too late to react
Atavism
From our barbaric past
Reemergence of our darkest side
The violent traits of man

[Chorus 2:]
Surround, kill, devour
The victims run in fear
Cunning teamwork boxed them in
There will be no escape
Surround, kill, devour
Slaughter has begun
Cannibals will tear the flesh from bone

[Post-Chorus:]
Torn apart
Famine fueled madness, they fight for scraps
Savagery
They live on
Rewarded with survival for their evil ways
The virtuous
Will die

[Bridge:]
Closing in on their chosen target
They force their prey to run
Encircled by the killers
Exhaust the quarry with the constant pressure
The weakest won't survive
The weakest will feed the pack
The weakest will feed the pack

[Solo: Rutan]

[Chorus 1:]
Surround, kill, devour
The need for food compels
Lupine instincts long suppressed
Now help them to survive
Surround, kill, devour
They run their quarry down
The weakest have been singled out to kill

[Post-Chorus:]
Torn apart
Famine fueled madness, they fight for scraps
Savagery
They live on
Rewarded with survival for their evil ways
The virtuous will die
